Uh, yeah… I’ve had this happen. The person in the middle of the conversation ended up becoming a good friend and totally understood (the second time I asked) when I told them how far I had actually driven for the particular set they we talking through. The small group did get up and leave.

[b]While we’re here…let me give you all fair warning. Please Tell Your Friends

The duo of Bela Fleck and Toumani Diabate will be amazingly soft/quiet at times. I’m pretty sure it will be this set that many of us take the moment to do a Telluride 360*. It’s that beautiful. I’ve already had nightmares of “festival talkers” that would not stop or go away (gosh that was polite Auntie).

Let all please remember this guest musician has traveled from Mali, West Africa, to grace us with the sounds of the 21 String African Harp, The Kora, and this project has not only been in the works for Bela Fleck over the last 4 years, it is near and dear to his heart.[/b]

Thank You in Advance,
Auntie Hope :festivarian2 :green

… We now return you to your yearly conversation about the P.I.T.A. sitting next to you during your favorite set at TBF.

Bravo, Hope!! Well said!
I am SOOO looking forward to Bela & Toumani. I will be front & center for their set. :flower

I’ll be right next to you , Sweetie! :flower

It’s a date! I’ll buy the beer!

Bela’s set!!! :thumbsup

I watch a short woman ask two tall dudes to sit, which they did. How did YOU handle relations with your neighbor?

I had to be told once to shut up, which I certainly deserved, and I complied.

I’ve had good fortune w/ cupping my ears towards the stage, although some friends have been in mid-conversation while I’m doing this, they tend not to talk w/ me anymore, phew. Friends have infinite capacity for love, and humor.

Peace

You mean someone with arhythmic tendencies?

Back in the day we’d bring enough kind to keep the blanket up front well irie and enough to subdue the less considerate neighbors into submmission w/ a request for their consideration of the Naks or AKGs. Worked just fine.
