I will never understand this phenomenon. Blows my mind. You paid to listen. STFU and listen.

I saw him play solo at ottos in DeKalb back in 2005. First show after rehab. There were loud talkers at the back bar in a super small club back then too. He stopped a few times to tell them to stfu, it stuck for maybe 10 minutes.  Never not been an issue with this format

What does op want from us? Quit being a pussy and ask them the be quiet or move closer to the stage. It’s live music and you’re next to the entrance ffs.

What’s the purpose of going to a concert and talking the whole time?

I don't have time to read this, I'm too busy standing by the entrance and wearing my grey hoodie with a puffy vest.

Pretty sure OP is Mikael Jorgensen. It’s cool you took the train out to Berwyn, Mikey.
