I completely fail to understand why people feel that it is okay to talk 
while people are performing.  It is not only rude and disrespectful to the 
performer it is also discourteous and infuriating to the audience members 
who actually wish to LISTEN.

Nothing irritates me more than a bunch of musicians who do this. They of 
ALL people should know better.

That's MY Rant, now I'm going off to do some deep breathing, it'll at least 
help my singing.
