Did anyone else at the Columbus show encounter many assholes and/or douchebags? It was a kick ass show, but these guys who came in late beside me were totally hammered and not there for the music at all it seemed. Totally ruined my mojo. We still had a kick ass time, but everytime Ed was talking this guy was talking to me about the same shit and getting on my fucking nerves. BTW-Oceans and Alone was awesome!!!

    If they were "totally hammered" you should've called security and had them tossed.

    good point. But columbus seemed to have a surplus of douchebaggery and that was the pinnacle of it for me.

    Not really. Had the guy next to my guest that I was keeping an eye on(briefly!!) was enjoying himself quite a bit. Was afraid he'd step on her.And the guy next to me tapped me on the ass :shock: and suggested I sit down between the main set and 1st encore. Which I ignored. I mean really , you couldn't tap me on the arm?That was it. A rockin good time!!!

    between sets and he was sitting? Fuck I don't know!! looking back on it, I was closer by one seat to the stage, and between the main set and 1st encore he sat down? Guess because I was still standing my ass was in his face?

    I might have been more considerate had he not tapped me on the hip/ass area!!! :shock:

    Wish I was there. I'm the guy that breaks up fights or calms heated situations. I started out as a bouncer, then I got my first Ph.d ...Now I work for the government.

    you should have been a man about it and told him. Now you are crying about it on a message board. How the world has changed.

    Yes, especially the red haired douchebag that tried to sneak into our row and pushed my girlfriend out of her seat. Section 102 row j. I told him he had to get out of I would call security. He then took a cheap shot and elbowed me in the chest as he walked by. I didn't feel like getting into a fight and missing pj so I waved to the guard and he took off. What a piece of shit.

    The people by me in 116 were cool. All them were fans digging it
    one guy brought his sis to her first show
    so she got a good representation of good fans and a great show

    I only encountered one dude, who wasn't really a problem, but he was really drunk, and he kind of ran into me going up the stairs once, and then when security came later to get his sorry ass out of there because he was sitting in a seat that wasnt his (Which was obvious because it was a single seat that wasnt for sale) he tried to use my shoulder to stay up i guess and i threw an elbow at that, because my job is certainly not to support drunk asshole 280 pound dudes.

    But I will say, I went to Noblesville, and while it didnt ruin my experience, the lawn was filled with assholes. Some drunk, a few not. But I got there early, got front row lawn, left when we cleared out, and was able to get my same spot upon re-entry. Once the show started though, people who show up late, but don't care about anyone but themselves, start forcing themselves into the front of the lawn, pushing people out of their way, standing right in front of people who have been in that spot for hours. And I dont blame this on Indiana or Noblesville, and I wouldnt suggest that was the problem as the OP did, but I will say, I hope to not sit in the lawn again, just because I don't really feel like dealing with all that extra shit when I'm just trying to see my band play. But tomorrow night, it's back to seats, so it's all good for me.
    words seem so out of place.
