It was at a drag show, but there was an intermission performer -- performing in butch male attire -- who did a sort of burlesque performance with a chair and a whip. It wasn't at all explicit, but it was incredibly sexy... and artistically near-perfect. [Edited 12/16/08 13:30pm] unless it's bette [Edited 12/16/08 15:40pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Top of the list would have to be the sing a long. SHIT this needs to stop, im tired of the singer turning the song over to the OFF KEY audience, i paid for you to sing, not some dork in a hat singing off key.
Another would be the singer "telling" the audience to get up. FUCK YOU i'll get up when i want and sit when i want. ENCORES, not that they happen, but this BULLSHIT that if you stand and clap they will happen, if you dont they wont. PEOPLE the encore is planned and written into the set list. So whether you stand, clap, chant the name of artist, do some stupid wizard of oz oo-ee-oo-ee-ohhh shit, light a lighter,boo,shit in your hands, whatever you do the ARTIST IS COMING OUT or NOT COMING OUT, its already planned, you have NO control over it, and that would lead me to another annoying thing....the fact that the audience thinks that they control the encores, YOU DONT.

I especially hate these at concerts where there isn't really a time constraint. Either do the song, or don't. | |

you're talking about prince, right? it's got to the point where in some shows he'll play the opening chords and let the crowd do everything after that. he'll just throw in a word here and there and pluck a bass. i hate it when ANYONE does it, but yes. prince is the main perpetrator. i don't care how damn good it makes him feel to hear the audience sing his songs back to him. he's heard us sing to him a kajillion times now. knock it off and sing your own damn songs because i'm tired of having to listen to the tonedeaf fuckers on either side of me when i could be listening to one of the most amazing pop vocalists alive, shit. | |

I agree. Inspire me to get up.. it doesn't take much. ooh, i hate this too. basically, i hate having the people on stage tell me what the hell to do. i get enough of that from my boss every day at work, i don't need to pay good money to have my favorite musical performers boss me around too. and trying to make me feel bad if i don't wave my arms around or whatever the hell they're trying to make me do. screw you, i'm gonna do what i want! | |

At least something like "the lighters" (and these days it's a lit up cellphone) seems like a genuine, spontaneous reaction from the audience. I would hate it, again, if the crowd was told to "PUT YOUR LIGHTERS UP". That kinda takes away from the moment, no? | |

I would hate it, again, if the crowd was told to "PUT YOUR LIGHTERS UP". That kinda takes away from the moment, no? Not really, mainly because the first time an audience does it then its spontaneous but after that its just the audience being a gimmick, because they saw clips on YouTube and they think thats what they have to do to get a certain reaction from the artist. So with the audience, its a one time cut off and then its old news. And as ffor cell-phones at the shows, they need to go.
