That about nails it, Eddie. People are so programmed to believe that music just appears out of the blue now, that nobody actually has to play it. Sad fact is that a lot of today's music is untouched by human hand in production, and subsequently untouched by human brain when being heard.

Usually it's some drunk who insists on chatting merrily away mid-song. Other times, there are those who don't need the excuse of alcohol, they're just plain stooooopid.

The best one I had was in a crowded pub, no stage and the crowd right up against the back of my keyboard. This one fella was swaying and on the backward swing got too close, so, keeping my left hand comping, stretched out my right hand and swayed him back the other way, and just kept right on singing. He never noticed, nor anyone else. I can't believe the coolness of my own actions in that situation. I laugh about it now, but it could have gone south pretty quick.
