… we musicians need help understanding why people behave the way they do at concerts. Sometimes they are noisy and we are befuddled. Sometimes they answer cell phones or their watches go off and they continue to let them beep. Sometimes they don’t act the way we think they should and that bugs us. And sometimes they are handed food at a concert and we need fair warning so we don’t react poorly!
