Silliest thing you've ever seen at a concert...

[Surly]

Has this been discussed before? I'm too lazy to do a search.

In any case, I thought this could be a fun topic. Ever see anything silly or ridiculous at a concert? Sure, there's the typical annoying/rude concert goers, the people wearing shirts of the acts they are seeing (particularly old shirts, as if to proclaim "I was a fan before [i]you[/i]"), but anything truly over the top?

I saw OMD in Cleveland in '86. A couple with good seats were dressed up in "old-timey" clothes (think '20s or '30s-era) and were doing "ballroom dancing" to all of the songs. They had a giant, heavy chain around their shoulders that they would re-drape from song to song. As if that wasn't lame enough, they made a point to sit down and not dance during "If You Leave," since that was the "hit" and their beloved band had obviously "sold out" in their eyes. Truly silly.

Anyone?

I saw the Fine Young Cannibals at the channel in Boston and someone let off some sort of stink bomb during the show. It stung some peoples eyes, but pretty much just smelled like rotten eggs. They cleared everyone out for about a 1/2 hr to an hr then restarted the show. I don't think they ever caught who did it.
