Only maybe one point for it not being Free Bird

Friends, today I am here to talk about a serious issue affecting all of us. Or at least all of us who go to concerts, or possibly listen to concert videos on YouTube.

Will you stop shouting song titles at singers while they are performing.

Stop.

Just stop.

They know what songs they’ve done, or if they’ve forgotten, you shouting one isn’t going to

It's an odd thing how concert behaviour varies from place to place, though the shouting out of titles can be a problem anywhere. When we lived in Sheffield one of the things that amazed me was how people talked throughout concerts. I remonstrated with someone behind me once and was told 'oh you've obviously never been to a Roy Harper concert before, it's where you catch up with people you haven't seen all year'! And this was after Roy Harper had actually asked the audience to shut up! He's mostly not a quiet performer, but his quiet songs have all the more power, like the one he wrote about his grandfather's twin who was blown to pieces next to him in the trenches of WWI which his grandfather had nightmares about for the rest of his life. I had been to Roy Harper concerts before and no people hadn't been so f****g rude, it was just a thing about Sheffield audiences whatever the type of venue. It really was so bad that we would choose to drive the hour to Manchester rather than watch the same concert in Sheffield.
