I'm sorry, but after you've bought front row tickets fifty times to your obsession, how about you let someone else have a chance. It has zero to do with being ungrateful, obviously. It's looking out for her entire fanbase.

And of course, Chrissie Hynde's pinky finger is cooler than any dumbass on this forum.
Who bought tickets to fifty Pretenders shows? Show your work.
Jesus Christ dude, are you really this clueless?

Shouldn't be very surprising to anybody who knows anything about her. If you cause disruptions or distractions to the show she's going to do something about it. She used to wear a "My way or the highway" tee shirt at photo shoots.

But yeah, continue to think it's just her not liking the way somebody looks. No way there's more to it than that, right?

I love the first three Pretenders albums, and I think she is iconic, cool, and I appreciate she never really pandered.

But this is a shitty move. She should be THANKFUL for any fans going to multiple shows. And they are a paying customer -- they can sit wherever they want.
The fact that she focuses on what she wants and why she is touring is ridiculous entitlement -- you are not entitled to pick where you paying customers can sit for your pleasure.

Did she or her people not thing this was going to piss a bunch of people off? Especially if they only read the headline and not the statement. I also wonder if they're reserved seating or GA? If it's reserved seating and that important to her, she could just pull a Billy Joel and hold back the front row tickets and give them out at the show. Also, if the shows are all within 2-3 hours of each other, you don't even have to be a superfan to want to catch more than one show. I can think of a dozen bands I'd travel 2-3 hours to see multiple times. I've never done 3 shows, but I've done 2 shows in 2 nights a few times.
Nelson, "After the Rain" tour, I assume?

Apparently, she can.

I think I'll avoid the issue by not going to any of her shows.

She can do what she wants cause she's the coolest. But this is just her wish. She won't "have you removed" like idiotically suggested in thread title.

Great show in Stockholm last month!

Can't really imagine it being anything else.
If this 73 year-old has male groupies, men are definitely doing something wrong. Outside maybe Susanna Hoffs, I can't imagine why any men would be obsessed with a senior citizen.
