This is the first fan review (Sheriffswell at 12:21) that I've come across of David Cassidy's show in New York last night. Sounds like a yawn fest to me. Same old, same old save for a couple of songs on the list that I've never heard him perform but they're not from his stuff. "Brass in Pocket" again? Have pity, we beg you.
First clip up on You Tube below. And to female-fan-who-shrieks-so? Cool your jets, please. This awful remix is hardly worth the voice strain and saliva. Oh, you're screaming to prove your attraction to him and not your appreciation of the music? Silly me. Go right ahead then. I'm sure he'll appreciate the novelty.

Well, looks like I didn't miss much (it's about a 45 min train ride for me). That woman screaming in my ear would have driven me batty.
Does anyone else besides me think DC needs a new stage outfit? Like one that doesn't look like he's hanging around the house on a Sunday?
If you click the YouTube icon at the bottom right, and go to the actual youtube page for this video, you can see two more videos Deirdre took when you click "More from deirdrebegley" a video of ITILY and video of Cherish. Deirdre, who took the three videos, has been a member of Just David since 1991.

For me it's 2 hour trip taking local bus to subway, subway to Times Square, switch to another subway line to Bayside and then local Queens bus for about 25 minutes to venue. And same thing going back later at night. So I passed on going.
As you say, it was standard show. O David was given a city proclamation award in a frame by some local Queens councilman for having family roots in Jamaica Queens (from Jack).
second Anon was me too, I forgot to put name.
Barbara
Thanks for the info, Barbara. I'll go check out Deirdre's other clips. I'm curious, how many times have you seen him in concert?
SLK, thanks for the laugh. Might be a silly thing to say, but the fact that he wears the same thing at every concert contributes to the déjà vu feeling. Any ideas on what he could wear? Maybe just a different colored shirt?!
The sound is awful in the clips. I wonder if it really was that bad in the venue.
In the "Cherish" clip, at around the 1:54 mark, he says to a fan that "it's okay, it's up my nostril". Hope that wasn't a strewn thong. ;-) Seriously though, it doesn't seem as if any undies were hurt in the making of this concert.
I actually like his casual style, it's much better than the shining blue shirt he wears on one of the dvd:s for example. Wouldn't mind blue jeans and t-shirt. Although I don't think I will ever see him live again. Last year after the UK-tour, when he said he probably would not do any shows in Europe anymore, I thought of going to the US to see him, but no, I don't think so. Too much money if he happens to be in a bad mood, and then I'm not that fond of the PF-songs.
Change of costume would be good. Either casual jeans/T shirt OR my personal wish would be dark suit/white shirt/tie. First the tie gets loosened, then the jacket comes off, then the tie comes off, then the shirt buttons come undone.
The reviews were good, I think people enjoyed themselves. There was a lot of the 'rambling' reported though wasn't there? I'd still see him if I could. Just because I haven't had a chance yet. If I was disappointed or not blown away, what the heck, at least it would cure my David Cassidy addiction. Always look on the bright side.
Posted the above before I listened to the clip. Sound was bad, could have been the poster's phone to blame though. Screaming women, women standing, so rude. This is the part I'm not so keen on. I really REALLY want to see him but I really REALLY don't want to put up with THAT. If I were next to her I would tell her to shut the **** up. Well' that's what I'd like to do only I'm too polite.
I paid to hear David NOT YOU!
I'd like to see David throw away those trousers and get some nice fitting jeans and T-shirt but hey British fan that image of David doing a slow strip does it for me !! At least he got a new shirt this time from ROAR but it was too long and cover his cute bum and 'Mr Happy' ...lol.
Sorry still stuck on that image of David in a dark suit slow stripping to comment or care about the sound !!
A different color shirt would be good. Black jeans that aren't faded would be good. Personally, I liked the look he had when he was promoting the Enigma lp---the black jeans, black t-shirt---I can't find a video of it for some reason. He looked very cool like that.
Ooh another UK fan. Have you ever seen David in concert. I guess you have. I only recently realised David was still performing and could kick myself up the rear end for missing so may opportunities.
All black!!! Yum. BF, I love that idea, doing a striptease from a suit!!! I actually liked the blue shiny shirt. Is there anything I don't like??? Some new threads would be good though. Yes, always a GREAT treat for me to get some peaks when he's wearing shorter shirts. ;-)
And DD, your cutting wit!!! lmao!!! No thong up the nostril?? LOL!!! And he mentioned his nostrils a couple of times. wtf...lolololololol
After reading all the reviews so far, it seems like it may have been a fairly good show for most.
British Fan, you come up with the tastiest images of David!!! Thank you!!!! I'm going to try to go to work now...LOL!!!

Is this the event you're talking about?
http://www.freewebs.com/cassidyfan4ever/liveevents.htm
That Tower Record Autograph session at the Tower Record Music Store was awsome!David really looked at his best,didn't he?
I see someone on cmongethappy commented that they recognised the front row banshees. Does anyone else EVER get a chance on those seats?
You know, I'd like to take some of the girls/ladies from my duaghter's Performing Arts school to one of David's concerts and get them in the from rows. These girls are stunning!
It would give David a kick, having some beautiful women to interact with but more importantly it would kill those front row girls. They wouldn't stand a chance. Ha! That would be most satisfying.
Thanks for your remarks DD. They are so apt. It's all about 'look at me David', not the concert at all. No wonder he gets irritated.
Same fans at every show. Always on the front row and screaming like banshees. The one you can hear on the youtube clip is at EVERY concert and insists on doing this all the way through the shows. I would have to punch her if I was stood next to her:) and the nippleskimming tops they always wear. Gross. There are a few interesting little cliques that changes monthly as their friendships suffer because they rely totally on David Cassidy. Its amusing as a bystander to stand back and watch it. Sure he plays up to them but he calls them his psycho little stalkers.Too funny.
Thanks Anonymous 9:55. Good to have a sane person's view on all this.
Ha! Nippleskimming tops. I noticed that too. DC likes his women trashy, after all ;-) Psycho little stalkers? It would be funny if it weren't so pathetic.
Thanks for your comment, Anon 9:55. Hope you stick around.
Front-row banshees---how pitiful. Middle-aged women making passes at him. It makes me embarrassed to think that I still like his old music. I wouldn’t want to be in the same audience with them---I’m the same age as they are, but I would NEVER behave that way. Why do they flirt with him anyway---do they think he’ll take them up on the offers? Do they think he likes that kind of attention? Don’t they know that he can’t stand it? I just don’t get it.
I think that’s another reason that I wish he had kept putting out new music---it would give me a reason to enjoy him as a mature artist, and not a teenybopper heartthrob. I still listen to James Taylor, Hall & Oates, Richard Thompson (the oddball of this bunch but awesome!), Bonnie Raitt, Rod Stewart---there are many recording artists I liked back then who still make good music now, and I still enjoy them. Oh, well. Guess I’ll just have to be happy with the old DC and PF stuff.
Oh, and thanks for the link, Clodyne, I will look at it later.
I've gone to see David perform in concerts & musicals since 1971. Concerts (in US & UK), musicals (in US & UK), as other fans have. In 1990 David invited me as his guest to a radio station party for his Enigma LP (to attend listeners had to win contest). When he spoke to the audience he thanked me and said that I've supported him and come to see him hundred & hundreds of times. So I will take that as an amount, I guess.
Oops, keep forgetting to put name.
Above Anon is me again. ;{
One fun thing I will mention is one time in Toronto when I went for a week to see DC in "Joseph", in Dec '83, he did a radio interview in the window of a store there (station was broadcasting all week from inside window for Christmas)and he saw me outside and motioned for me to come inside, so I sat in the window on the side with him and DJ, and David's soon to be stepdaughter Caroline. So that was cool.

I agree with everything you say at 10:37 SLK. In my heart I want to see him, if only once, but I can't bear being around those types. It's become like a seedy cabaret in Soho. I dont really believe he would live up to my expectations. The infuriating thing is that he could and is very capable of producing a good quality show. It looks like he's playing mainly to those at the front. What about the ret of the audience? When he's bending down, grabbing hands like that during a song he's not concentrating on the performance and the singing suffers. It looks like David does this through many of the songs. If you took those ladies out of the equation it would be a whole lot better for the rest of us.
Very often if you sit too close to the front, nearer the speakers/amplifiers, audio recording suffers. Recording from middle or back of orchestra or balcony comes out better, but of course fans want to be closer. :-) If its more than one night, maybe sit further back one of the nights to get good sound. THe screaming also enters into it.

SLK, that works for me - the 1991 Enigma LP tour! The only video I find on youtube is this. There used to be one of him doing "Lyin" with white t-shirt and leather pants, but this one is before he took his fringed jacket off. LOVED this tour and look!

Thanks Barvara. I don't usually sit in the first few rows of theatre so you're right about sound etc. I would normally go for somewhere beetween rows 6-10 or the first row of a balcony.
Meant Barbara, my fingers are mad today.
Ah, So if you know the screecher is at every show and know those in the front row have it every show then you must be at every show as well or at least communicate with someone who is. I saw British, American and European fans in the 25 some front row seats. I did not see any flirting just some very supportive fans making the most of their show experience.
David shook the hands of almost everyone in the first and second rows. So do you want all of them removed from the equation?
Wait for it, the "banshees" will find out about the posts here and come on to protest, as they do. But it's all true! On one of those videos when they all stand up, its so ludicrous how they are dressed for a show at a small college venue! LOL It is also true many fans stopped going to his concerts because they rarely are different, but also because of these same front row sitters. And yes they base their friendships on who gets or doesn't get attention more from David. LOL!
Amer. Fan
To Anon 1:01. yes, if it were possible I would like noisy fans who shriek DURING a song removed. It is considered bad manners in the theatre to make noise during someone's performance. I know this is different, its a concert but common sense please.
There's no reason why they cant shout a little AT THE END OF THE SONG. Making the most of your experience does not mean making more noise than Mr Cassidy.
If you are a shrieker I hope you never wind up next to me. You may go home with a very sore face, and it wont be from shouting.
You can delete some my posts if you like DD. Sarcasm gets the better of me. I love the wit and sarcasm in your blogs. You should be a journalist (or are you?) Lol! If the rabid masses find their way here I will bow out till the dust settles. There's no way I want to endanger your wonderful musings with my acid tongue.
Have a good evening and keep 'em coming.

British Fan, you’re hilarious. And you couldn’t have put it better: “It looks like he's playing mainly to those at the front. What about the rest of the audience? When he's bending down, grabbing hands like that during a song he's not concentrating on the performance and the singing suffers.”
That’s exactly right! You can’t sing well when you’re bent over like that---it’s like half the song is actual singing and the other half is whatever conversation he’s having with some woman in the first row. That’s not the kind of concert I want to see.
Anon at 1:01: “David shook the hands of almost everyone in the first and second rows. So do you want all of them removed from the equation?”
Not necessarily. I just want him to ignore them. I don’t know why he doesn’t. And I don’t understand why it’s so critical to have DC shake your hand while he’s singing a song---especially when it’s distracting him from singing. It’s kind of selfish, at least the way I see it.
And Barbara, the Enigma tour was his best look, absolutely. I would have liked to have seen one of those shows. I bet you have a few stories about them you can tell!
SLK and British Fan I am sorry you didn't enjoy your experience at the concert. You might want to consider going to another artist's concerts instead of David Cassidy's as this is what he does,
“It looks like he's playing mainly to those at the front. What about the rest of the audience? When he's bending down, grabbing hands like that during a song he's not concentrating on the performance and the singing suffers.”
"Anon at 1:01: “David shook the hands of almost everyone in the first and second rows. So do you want all of them removed from the equation?”

British Fan .. yes I have been to David's concerts in UK since 1973 at Bellevue Manchester. I was at his 'final' UK concert at Maine Road in 1974 and then again at his 1985 comeback concert and I have been to the Once in a lifetime and Rewind concerts as well as others since the millennium. His outfits in these earlier concerts were camp and theatrical and even more so in 1985 but we all dressed pretty strange then anyway. Now his concerts have got like his outfits .. all very much the same. I've never seen him USA but would have loved to have been to his concerts in the '90s over there.
British fan, like heck I'll delete your comments! ;-)
Anonymous 2:02: welcome. I can see by your post that this is your first visit here. Are you telling us that David Cassidy plays only to the first two rows of the venue? In that case, you're quite right. I don't think many of us here will be paying good money to see him in concert. We'll stay at home and listen to our CDs where we can actually hear him SING because that's the talent we want to appreciate from him, not hand shaking, as excellent a hand shaker he may be.
Amer. fan at 1:04, your post explains a few of the venomous comments I've seen on YT. Yikes. Grade school all over again.
Yes, I go to alot of his shows but I dont mix with any of the cliques, I keep my distance. Doesnt mean to say I dont see and know whats going on though :) and you only have to look through youtube clips from the past 10 or 11 years to recognise THAT screech. Everyone knows who it is.LMAO. I wish they could all find themselves an unattached man instead of living from one show to the next waiting in line to be the next Mrs Cassidy. It aint gonna happen.
Just to add I have been to some fantastic concerts of Davids through the years, 80's and 90's were very special, Ive also been to a couple of crap ones too.
How do the same gals always get front row? And how do u know he doesn't like their attention?
I agree, the screaming is very annoying!
How do you know he doesn't like their attention? Maybe because he tells them to "Shut the **** up" when he's on stage?
Alicia, seriously, he's a happily married man, and these are fanatically obsessed middle-aged women we're talking about---there would be no attraction for him there.
I wish some of them would come on this blog and post---I'd like a chance to see what they're really thinking---how they can think that there's nothing wrong with what they do. I don't understand it at all.
LOL, SKL, I didn't know he was saying that! Still odd the same people get the front row.
Is his opinion about us fans based on these front row women? No wonder he despises us in that case, but I think he ought to know that most of us are quite normal people. At least I hope so!
I agree that he should stop the handshaking. Those women love it, but the rest of the audience doesn't.
It's very difficult for me to understand these fanatics. Seeing him live in 1974, when I was 14, was the end of my idolizing, not because he wasn't wonderful, good, beautiful and all that, but because I realized that he was a huming being like the rest of us, completely out of reach for me. It's very strange that the front rowers haven't realized this after almost 40 years.
UK fan I think you have done well! You have seen the best of David Cassidy and have memories to treasure always. MaeB same for you. It must have been magical back then.
I just wish the ardent fans could still enjoy David, apopropriately for their age, and allow him to mature as a performer.
I think David shoud have a videocam on stage and have them filmed from his perspective and post it on youtube. Would they change if they could see themselves? Somehow I doubt it.
Alicia you made a valid point. Does he like THAT sort of attention? If he encourages and laps it up then he really has no business moaning about people bringing up his past, PF et al.
David will not get the respect and acknowledgment he craves unless he branches out a little. Okay do these kind of concerts on occasion BUT do something more meaningful too. And I do love him you know. I'm sat here willing him on (like one of his recehorses) to cross that finishing line.
SLK,
How do we know he is a happily married man?
The people, in those front rows, pay money to follow him around are paying his bills.
This is the same for every entertainer I have seen. They have a hard core following that fly somewhere at a moments notice
Normal people, who have lives, don't have the money and the time to do that.
I assume he's happily married. He says he is, she says they are, they've been together 20 years, he hasn't cheated on her that we know of (and with all the gossip around him, we would know!)---what more do you want?
I'm sorry, I just think it's weird, even if they do provide his income, to be fawning all over him like that, when he's married, and 59 years old, and they're no spring chickens either. Don't you think? I mean, I still enjoy looking at old clips and pictures, but I was 6 years old when I wanted him for my boyfriend, and it's not like that anymore, even if I were to meet him now. I also think it's kind of disrespectful to his wife to be flirting with him like some of them do. She must have to turn a blind eye to a lot of what goes on with him.
SLK read the last line of Anon 9:59. She calls us normal people. Got that one right.
Methinks she doth dig her own grave.
My nod to Shakespeare.
To be a devoted follower of DC requires one to have an IQ lower than 130. Scratch that, maybe 100.
The phrase more money than sense comes to mind.
I was being kind to the front row lot above. By devoted followers I was not referring to those who generally post here or who have made wonderful sites devoted to Mr Cassidy. I was merely targeting a certain mindset. Must take more care before posting. LOL!
Eeek, bringing up IQ points is harsh, British fan. To be fair, that front row doesn't seem THAT bad. There is one shrieker and yes, they all want to shake his hand while showcasing their sexy tops but they're not ALL hysterical. Now, I don't understand how they want to go to his EVERY concert when his shows are so similar, but hey, it's a free country. How they manage to get the same front row seats IS a mystery.
Would be normal for DC to feel a bit stalked seeing the same faces time and time again in those front rows. Also, a bit disappointed, I'd expect. As in, "don't I have OTHER devoted fans"?
British fan, I like your proposal about a videocam at the stage! Dd, guess you are right about the front rowers in general - I was one myself in the UK, but no handshaking for me. NO, I wouldn't have done it even if I had not met him before the show. That felt like meeting him on the same level, or at least that was I hoped for. To reach my hand to him on stage would have made me feel as a teenager, who would do anything to touch my idol.
I didn't see any women in sexy tops etc. Maybe those fans prefer his shows in the US?
I haven't heard anything about David's stalkers, I mean those really sick people who think they are married to the person they follow and so on. He must have quite a lot of those. Must be really scary.
SLK,In my experience of the concerts I have gone to David has never talked in this way to his regular concert going fans that seek out the first couple of rows. To the best of my knowledge he has never chastised the "schreecher" either. When he said these words at The Grove it was not to any of these "regular" fans.
SLK states "How do you know he doesn't like their attention? Maybe because he tells them to "Shut the **** up" when he's on stage?"
How do we know he calls them his stalkers? It would be instering if the thought that.
Oops DD. Knew I'd go too far if I kept butting in. It's like a red rag to a bull. It's not my place to dictate to other people how to carry on so I'll drop it. It's up to DC if he's happy with it. Unfortunately it becomes apparant at times that he is not.
I think David shoud have a videocam on stage and have them filmed from his perspective and post it on youtube. Would they change if they could see themselves? Somehow I doubt it.
Are you kidding? They LOVE when they are seen on film in the front row and they even gloat about it to other fans. Doesn't matter if they look foolish, to them the main thing is they are are film. Its pretty f-ing coo coo.
If you've noticed a delay in comments appearing today, it's that I've turned on the comment moderation. Please, no comments containing gossip about DC. Thanks.
Time this bloke hung up his shabby shoes, crumpled clothes and spent some time learning the lyrics and building a proper show.... but that would take effort I suppose. He could also try having some respect for his fans.
Anonymous at 11:56---you've been to enough concerts to know who the regulars are, and you know about the "screecher"---are you also one of the front row women who try to shake DC's hand when he's on stage? If you are, I'm willing to believe that you just see yourself as a supportive fan, but do you also see what happens to the rest of the show when everyone does it? (meaning DC can't sing and shake hands at the same time...)
If not, do you think they just keep doing it because no one wants to confront them to make them stop? Could that be why no one has muzzled the "screecher"?
I guess I can understand how crowd control from within the crowd can be daunting. I went to see David Byrne play at Radio City Music Hall recently (FABULOUS show) and almost had a miserable time because there were about five drunk people behind me who talked the whole way through it and would not shut up. I was about 20 years older than they were, so I felt like the grouchy old shrew, but I turned around anyway and asked them to please keep it down so I could hear the music. I had to ask them a couple of times, but some of them eventually moved to another area, and the rest of them kept quiet. So at least I could hear the music, but I ended up feeling uncomfortable because I'd killed the buzz they had going---we were all there to have a good time, after all.
So I understand that it's not just David Cassidy who has rude fans. I used to go to concerts all the time, but don't have patience for many of them anymore.
Oh how I agree with the last post. I’ve seen him numerous times …… but I’m no longer funding his pension or hotel rooms. If he thinks you can do the same show in the USA and UK for numerous years with no preparation or rehearsals and get away with it…… he’s wrong. Forgetting words to songs and having to start again is bad enough but loosing your temper with fans is another matter. Professional ……… not even close. I have been on the receiving end of one of his temper tantrums and did absolutely nothing to deserve it and decided never to return. He has lost so many fans due to his poor behaviour ( on and off stage ) and read into that what you want !!!!!
And like the previous person said he certainly needs to buy some new clothes I think these have been out for the last 3 years at least and are well past their sell by date ….. I guess that sums him up really !!
LOL.... you've been to the same concerts as me then??? Oh hang on....... they are ALL the same..... did you ever hear the one about John Lennon?
Possibly I have …… did he spend New Year’s Eve with him once ?? Shame John didn’t impart some of his talent on him. And he certainly does “his friend” no favours by massacring his songs vocally and who ever told him he could play a guitar ……… maybe to grade 3 !!!
SLK, just for general concert knowledge. Whenever I find myself in such seating arrangment where the person or people next to me are being disruptive or over-ethusiastic, you can ask them to stop, but if they don't, usually a theatre mgr or usher will let you change to another empty seat if you explain to them about the distraction at your seat. I've done it many times and as long as you explain it fully and let mgmnt see the folks you are referring to, they will let you move to a comparable level empty seat.
Amer. Fan
Wow, Tired and Sick, how long have his concerts been this way? I wonder if some things like the talking a lot could be his medicines or whatever they are for that he mentions. It could even affect his ability to remember words, his organization, etc. If you knew he was impaired in some way through no fault of his own, could you appreciate what he does do at these concerts a little more? Regardless, I agree with you to the extent that he and his management should strive to improve certain things about the show and how he relates to people in public in general.
I wonder if he does the hand shaking and talking because that he thinks that is what people really want???
Morning all. Wow! This particular subject has certainly created some debate with so many comments. The man can still stimulate opinion and conversation. I'd love to see him discover some more creativity and a new enjoyment of performing.
SingmeDavid,
It appears that David has problems him or his management won't admit to. I have seen him do some senseless ramblings in concerts
This is all catching up with him as I see that he only has 6 future concerts listings on his schedule.
One is a DisneyWorld concert where he does 30 minute shows. I guess its free with admission.
Here is a compilation video of twelve songs from DC's Queens concert last weekend. Thanks to the efforts of this devoted fan, we can now all better appreciate "The Shrieker", expressing her adoration for her god during each and every freaking one of these songs, save for the two acoustic Beatles tunes ("Hide Your Love Away" and "In My Life").
I'm sad to say that this compilation impressed me even less than the initial written review of the show posted on C'mon Get Happy and it has nothing to do with "The Shrieker."
Daydreaming, thanks for posting this, and as usual, I agree with you completely. He is just not the singer he used to be, is he? So sad. I would like to see a full clip of Echo Valley 2-6809, though, because that one sounded pretty good.
And heaven help "the Shrieker" if I ever go to one of those concerts and she sits anywhere near me. She wouldn't make it through the show---I'd make her way too miserable!
OMG! I didn't have the time to check out "the shrieker" until now, when I listened to the compilation DD posted. I didn't realize how extremely horrible she is! That shriek pierces your very marrow (straight from the dictionary). Poor David and poor audience!
SLK, do you think it is possible to stop her? Don't you think others have tried? At the show in Glasgow last year, there were two women fighting! I don't know what it was about, but another fan pointed them out to David, who run from the other end of stage and, rightfully this time, told them that he would call the guards and had them thrown out it they continued like that. Maybe the shrieker would also be violent? And then you would get the blame... Be careful!
Cant leave the comments at 69!
Thanks for posting that montage. There's still a good voice hiding there. It's kind of like sitting in on a jamming/rehearsal than the real thing. I'd still enjoy it I think for a first time just for the novelty of seeing DC live. As for the youknowwhat - lobotomy or trachea removal. Not overstepped the mark I hope.
xxx
British Fan, LOL!!! I was enjoying most of it too. I would like to be there at least once. I do wish that woman would shut up though.
MaeB, that is a very interesting story!!! By other accounts, the wrong people have been blamed for stuff before at David's concerts so that IS something to keep in mind. I suppose you could ask a guard to quiet her? That would be a job for him anyway since any number of physical assaults could ensue given her frenzied state. Ugh! I have heard of some people being drunk in the audience too and causing a lot of disturbance.
I don't know what the world's coming to. I've come across drunk people in the theatre but they usually get removed or told off. Why pay good money to see a show and then not really remember it properly because your brain is all fuzzled with alcohol. Pointless!
Drunk audience members causing a disturbance are probably more common in those casino-type venues than in a proper amphitheater like this.
MaeB, a shriek to pierce the marrow. Well said. You'd expect behavior like this from a teenybopper (DC's tour manager (?) is quoted in "Could it be Forever" as saying those young audience members perfected the high-pitched C squeal), but an adult woman? Get a grip, lady.
LOL! Women fighting in Glasgow, getting all pent up and shrieking. Obviously some are reverting to their teenage mindset when they enter David's concerts.
I have just read your comment on "two women fighting at the Glasgow concert". Let me put this right once and for all. I was one of the women involved. The other one was heavily drunk, trying to push forward by pushing other people back. I wanted to prevent this by telling her not to do so. Then she freaked out and started yelling at me and calling me names. That was when David came in and told us to behave. I felt miserable about this incident because I didn't think I was behaving badly. And I have to add that this was my first DC concert ever!
Sorry that happened to you Anon!!! Is this a woman that normally goes to these concerts, or his concerts, that you know of? Were there others that were drunk?
Anonymous 3:51, that's horrible! What a shame. I'd have wanted the earth to swallow me whole. An usher or manager should have been the one to tell that audience member to behave, not David!
Here's Echo Valley for those of you who wanted to hear the whole thing.
Thanks, Daydreaming. That was still not the old DC singing it, but it was nice. I would go to a concert if I knew it would all be like that.
Anon, I heard afterwards that you had been very sad that David would remember you as one of the fighting women, but comforted by another who told you that he wouldn't remember or recognize you the next time. Thanks for telling us what really happened, I have been wondering about that. Poor you, getting blamed when it wasn't your fault!
Me too would have want the earth to swallow me - so horrible! I really feel sorry for you, it must have destroyed the whole experience for you.
