Why go to a Show and spoil it for everyone?

I don't understand behaviour like that from these people.

I did not even know AnnieK liked The Bodyguard movie!:shocked:

from a solo singers perspective, it's probably their worst nightmare having someone who is tone deaf singing along at the top of their voice :laugh:

Apparently this no singing policy at this specific show was discussed on this morning last week.
So it seems like it was a thing and people were singing in protest last night.
