I've no recollection of anybody ever rushing the stage at a lightfoot concert. Security can only react AFTER the fact and I'm sure no one expected some ignoramus to whip off her bra and then get onstage. Lightfoot being of a certain age and of the demeanour we all know handled it remarkably well. What he said later could be a different kettle of fish however.
lol
The whole thing could prove to be the impetus for new onstage patter...he may just decide to move on and forget it tho.

There really is no need for that sort of behaviour and I'm just sorry that everyone in that theatre that night and not just Lightfoot had to put up with one person's ego. If there was drinking involved she made a choice to drink too much before she got loaded enuf to make a horses arse of herself.

At Massey the mere sight of a shiny object brings the camera police around! But security would be hard pressed to stop something like that happening at any venue, especially since she had a seat close to the stage. Her lack of respect for Lightfoot is shameful. I wonder how she feels about her behaviour today...
