Austin Guitar Jam

Where guitarist come to meet.

I saw this on the GAC website.

---September 24, 2009 — Warning: If you're at a Miranda Lambert concert, do NOT toss a beach ball into the crowd! Miranda, who just got off Kenny Chesney's "Sun City Carnival" tour, tells Dial-Global those plastic spheres are not welcome in her set.

"I hate beach balls," she says, laughing. "I just feel like people are so distracted from the music when they're trying to worry about a beach ball hittin' 'em on the head and bouncin' around like a volleyball. And people down front get hit in the back of the head 'cause they don't see it coming. This one guy hit me in the face during 'Gunpowder and Lead' at one arena out with Kenny with this giant beach ball and that's when I snapped. I actually popped that beach ball with my heel of my shoe — but I started keeping a knife on the drum riser for occasions just like that."---

I love Miranda Lambert but it sounds like she is getting the, “I am smarter than the audience” attitude.

I saw a guy playing guitar in a coffee shop, stop singing, and get on to a couple for talking during his song. Dude, it’s a coffee shop in a Barnes and Noble. Nobody but your buddy came to hear you sing. They came to shop the book store and grab a cup of coffee. You just happened to be there. Get over yourself. I am not advocating being rude while people perform. Different venues have different rules for etiquette. Tailor the performance and your attitude for the type of situation
