Ozzy,

I’ve wondered the same of late. I went to lots of big concerts in the 70s, and aside from a few jostles over general admission seating, I recall little rudeness. Folks were there to see and hear the shows.

But that’s not how it is now. I was at a large outdoor festival with pricey tickets this spring, and quite a few of the folks near me were carrying forth loud conversations. All while Brandi Carlisle and her band played a brilliant set.

Perhaps attention spans are short? This was a well-monitored alcohol-free setting, so I can’t blame the behavior on booze.
