Sorry this happened to you and your wife. Fucking assholes. I will never understand what makes men treat women poorly and I am sorry you encountered more than one of them at a show. Truthfully there is probably very little that can be done about it. I hope your wife feels better over time. If we talk it up enough, it might reach the band. Makes no sense that you got thrown out.

What really sucks is that she probably would have been kicked out if she punched the guy...damned if you do and damned if you don't

Thanks for the support all. The US embassy in Spain is now involved. We’re pressing this to the fullest extent that we can against Palau Saint Jordi, the security team, and the police. If anyone has any pics or video of this please let me know. Trying to give embassy and attorney all evidence we have. Thanks.

Good luck, but if you’re the couple by the Dublin kids to Mikes side of the stage, it didn’t look to good for you as you were going out. 

No. It wasn’t. Was pretty crazy to us. Never experienced anything like it across hundreds of different shows. And our crime was trying to report an assault. That’s it. We weren’t fighting or bothering anyone around us. Did not expect this outcome at all. 

And we’re pretty sure that Dublin group were friends/associated with the pervert.  Despicable group. They were the ones who turned backs and said things like my wife was drunk and deserved it.  Remind me to never go to Dublin.

Of all the things that Ed and the band would not tolerate at one of their shows, it is shocking that the PJ representatives did not do more.

It’s appalling that anyone could say that being drunk gives license to assault another human being.

Absolutely furious to read what happened to you and your wife but HELL YEAH I’m glad you’re pursuing this. This is fucking bullshit. Prick rubs himself all over your wife and YOU get kicked out? That’s psychotic. This band and the fan community doesn’t stand for this kind of shit and I hope you gain some semblance of satisfaction when all is said and done. Keep us posted - interested to know how things proceed and hoping things go your way.
