Hi, I don't really have a question, just wanted to say thank you. This past weekend my husband, our 6 year old daughter, and I came to see you at The Youngstown Convocation Center. During your performance of Simple Man, a very rude man hit my husband very hard several times in the back because we were standing up. Though the staff should have removed him, they called my husband out into the hall instead and told him to not to make obscene jesters,because he had flicked the guy off.My husband so ok, and they said it was also ok for us to be standing up. So my husband returned to his seat. He was a little mad cause he missed Simple Man, but it was ok. So were listening to you, and this man is still causing problems because we are standing, he is screaming and swearing, he was very irrate. It was right around then that you decided to talk about how we shouldn't be confined to our seats, that we should be able to stand up and have fun. That was SOOOO AWESOME of you!!! Anyways so when my husband other favorite song (45) came on, they pulled him out into the hallway again, only this time they had 4 officers and 3 event staff, and they did this in front of our 6 yr old.My husband and I were extreamly upset. This event person was asking us if we wanted to be removed, we weren't doing anything wrong, everyone else around us thought what they were doing to us was wrong. My husband told the man that he wanted his money back, because he had missed the band he was here to see, but the guys started yelling at my husband, threatening to remove us from the concert. Finally, we asked "are we allowed to stand up?" they said yes and we went back to the concert. When we got backto our seats, everyone around us was standing up. It was awesome. They ended up telling the man that had caused the whole thing, that if he had a problem with us standing up, then he was at the wrong concert. So he left. Sorry for the long story, but I just wanted to say thank you for saying everything that you said, it was perfect timing, thank you for being such an awesome band, and thank you for coming to Youngstown, hopefully the next time we see you, it will be without interuption! Thanks again guys, your awesome!! Stay cool!!!
