Thanks for that link. I found this sentece interesting: “I owe you an apology an explanation and wish to end the cycle of madness my sickness turned craziness created.” The apology is vague. Is he talking about just catching a cold that was going around the band, getting over his addictions, being crazy in general, or a combination of them all. Based on that sentence, it’s probably that last one.

I think the Cardinals are going to have a tough time selling tickets to thier next show. If you’re just a average fan who likes a few of his songs you’re probably not throwing down for tickets. His audience is getting reduced to hardcore fans. This is no way to sell out an Amphitheatre. So if his behavior means playing smaller venues, it might be for the best. At least for the fans.

Hey Walker,
Don’t you wish you had just a tiny bit of Ryans talent. Please go write some more shitty songs for losers like Avril.

After reading all the nasty posts people have been leaving on the message boards this week (many from folks who didn’t even attend the concert!) I was very pleased to read this review. You have captured here what truly happened at the show fairly, honestly, & compassionately. I couldn’t agree with your last statement more: “The price of enjoying his art is that we’re going to get nights like last Friday.” Ryan is an artist that shares himself with the fans openly & freely – no holds barred. While he was “feeling humiliated” on stage, my heart went out to him. I coudn’t believe that some folks in the crowd actually booed! I was appalled at their behavior. I do believe I got my money’s worth; the 13 songs were great and I can’t wait to see them again next time they come to town.
