It's like Hank wrote that song for Jimmy.

Part 1. We are in 2nd row, left of stage, empty aisle seat is to our right. Midway through the 1st. set, holder of the seat ticket is escorted to the seat. She sits down, no problem.

5 minutes later, her cell goes off. She puts it in her purse, to silence it. This doesn't help too much but the phone stops ringing.

Seconds later, it goes off again. This time she takes it out of her purse and SITS on it to muffle it. Lot much help, either.

Finally, usher comes down and tells her to turn it off. Concert continues without incident.


Part 2. After the show, Margo is in the lobby, selling and signing cds. A kid about 9 approaches the table with a cd to be signed. Kid is too shy to approach Margo. Margo got up from the table, walked around to the girl and got down to the girl's level and talked to her.

Seeing that, made the evening for me.
