I've just remembered being furious a bit over 20 years ago at a Don McLean concert. I took along a girl who I was very keen on. I paid substantial money for two of the best seats but she kept nodding off ! Her only defence was it was after a long working day ( and in hindsight to be honest some of those songs could be prescribed as a cure for insomnia!) I remember saying to her "I didn't spend 80 bucks on your seat for you to go to sleep" and I dug her in the ribs a couple of times to keep her awake.

I've been married to that somnambulist for nearly 20 years now. Like an elephant I never forget and she is constantly reminded of the fact every time we go to a concert.
