I hate when these rude people cant fucking listen for 2 minutes and be thoughtful for the band. come on laker fans u can do better than that.

@9664963 I went to many shows in my day :) This was one of my complaints (and there weren't many) but was the crowd's ability to STFU at the appropriate time!!!

@flagg6805 It's not just DMB fans. It's just the general "party" lifestyle and immediate gratification demands which pervades pretty much all concert venues anymore. Most people are just too jaded and self-absorbed to sit still for anything subtle.

@hammaann And who are you to make that judgement? Obviously, you know nothing about DMB fans.

@DMBGRUX no they cant

[liljon6892]

who the hell disliked this

[hammaann]

People who go to this type of show aren't there to "listen" to anything. They are drunks and stoners who are there for the "party". They don't really care about much beyond their own selfish need to be inebriated and have fun.

@DMBGRUX no they cant.... thats the sad part

Those people were silent when Dave first announced it I was there. Right after Dave said his ghost was with us the entire place went nearly silent.
