I agree....I don't go anymore either....I do pay per view to see the new movies now...

Never fails that when we pay $75 - $100 or more for concert tickets we always have seats within hearing distance of some lady who just has to sing along with the artist that we PAID to hear. And to make it even worse, they never can sing worth a lick, can't carry a tune to save them......always some warbler who could make a deaf dog howl. Sometimes a dirty look will get them to shut up, but all too often they act totally oblivious to the fact that someone might object to their obnoxious noise-making. I just don't understand how some folks can be so dang inconsiderate.

No matter the age, if they were an idiot, or rude inconsiderate person when young, they seem to not change when they are older. (That has been what I have unfortunately experienced.)

We attended a local chorus concert in our northern city. Printed in the program.......

Please refrain from humming or singing along with the choir; instead come to our next auditions.

That is the first time I have seen that request, and I hope it will not be the last. In fact, it should be announced, right along with the cellphones and the unwrapping candy announcements.

......Hey, OP, you sure hit a hot button.

Yep. Sorry tom.

I admit, I got a kick out of that announcement in the program. Of course, I have never fully recovered from a time years ago when a good friend nearly drowned out The Temptations.

Anyway, tom, no humming. Don't even think about it.
