Enough with the singing!

demetrios

it's a pearl jam show, not a john william's london symphony orchestra special.
you might see a few fans wearing a suit & tie @ a pearl jam show,
but to not sing along with the music, that includes words ..

that's fucked up!

stop telling me what i can and cant do at a concert-
its either the sit down jerk offs, or the stop singin' assholes... or the jerk off parents who bring their 4 year old kids to shows freaking out on everyone to watch out for their puppies. A note to All of you- Go fuck yourselves, and buy the DVD. This is PEARL JAM- It's freedom baby- so suck it up, and shut the fuck up about what I can or can't do.

You're right, its a free country. so I have the right to opine that the lousy singing is taking away from my concert going experience. so sing away Levy, just don't get hostile about it.

Dude probably put it in one of the little ones' pockets hoping that they wouldn't be searched at the entry

back in the day, I snuck one in in my chest area. I kind of wedged it in my bra in between "the girls" it just looked like I had giant boobs and it's not like they're going to feel a chick up. Of course this was many, many years ago. I still can't figure out why I didn't just roll a j or take a pipe. Ahhh youth.

Well, I kind understand what some people say and why they would be annoyed. And I always say I am not going to sing, BUT like someone in the thread said, once you're in the moment you just get swept along, especially if you feel you can relate to the songs. It's just such an incredible feeling that I start singing. But then my boyfriend said I may need singing lessons...this was at the Outside Lands in SF. I told him it might have been someone else he was listening to. I mean, we've been to PLENTY of PJ concerts and he hasn't said anything. Mmmmm....maybe he's finally reached that comfort level?

I don't care though.... tonight is the LA Show... YAY!! I hope they play Johnny Guitar!! :-)

By the way, Do the Evolution is the BEST song to sing along with!! Woo Hoo!!

I don't mind people singing along, except when they are horribly out of tune and don't know it, or worse, don't care.

Concerts are so loud, how can you even hear anyone else besides what's going on onstage anyway?
I'd rather hear everyone singing than talking on their cell phones or screaming out requests over and over again that will never get played. :roll:

Yeah I agree. People don't sound the same out loud as they do in their own head, and I get annoyed when the person behind me is singing horribly off key. I agree with the thread starter to a degree, there is a difference between singing along and yelling the lyrics, and I also think that people on this board need stop being such assholes to new people posing on the board.

dunno about the OP but all those of you who referenced indifference win my rolly eye prize. :roll: :roll: :roll:
