Is there anything in life more scary…

[paisleywookiee]

My kids are grown up but that would still be terrifying. Even worse if you found yourself sat in between Joe Bonamassa and John Mayer . Kill me now.

On a serious note I was once sat behind Elton John at a Bonnie Raitt gig.

I actually dislike Bonamassa and Mayer more than even U2.

Not as bad as nylon strings! I usually plan on a couple weeks for them to settle in

this has to be a total nightmare

I remember seeing a haunted house movie where a piano string snaps and slashes this girl’s face.

I’ve thought about that scene every time I’ve changed a string since

Same! I think it was "The Haunting"?

The best and the worst all in one post. How did you do it?

And why do I not know what to feel right now?

Is that what the kids are calling it these days?

In all seriousness, I once saw 10's of thousands of people walk out as soon as Elton John started his gig. It was the Harley Davidson 100th Anniversary celebration in 2003 and over half the crowd left as soon as the "surprise headliner" was revealed. I must admit, HD did not think it through when they put a gay English knight on the stage for their crowd (and did not tell anyone prior to the show) at their centennial celebration. I have heard that Willie G Davidson's daughter was in charge of the acts for the final hoorah, and she was a huge Elton fan. I was psyched as I and my friends were able to easily move forward about 100 yards.

The audience had a problem with him being gay????? That’s pathetic, he’s one of the most important artists around ( just about these days).

No, they all left because he does not ride a Harley (that we know of)! If you don't see the classic HD demographics as being less than welcoming to gay, English and Knighted, at the celebration of a very American and masculine celebration, I can not help. If ZZ Top had come on stage, I am pretty certain more than half of the crowd would not have left within 10 minutes ;~)) Assume what you want from that.

Nobody cares about gay over here other than morons.

And most don't care over here either, but we were talking about a very segregated group (go ahead and call that group morons to their face, see how your face turns out), not the country in general!
