However, he's not someone I'd want to meet in person. Recently he returned to a previous crime against politeness, Minneapolis.From CNN:
Throughout a show Thursday night, the 32-year-old singer-guitarist complained about the sound monitors onstage at the State Theatre. At one point, he moved two monitors, his microphone and his guitar pedals.
After 70 minutes he'd had enough. Adams announced "the last song," played it and didn't return for an encore. Many fans stood and booed.
"I don't know what the story was," guitarist Neal Casal told the Star Tribune afterward. "I just play guitar."
In 2003, Adams gave a famously bad performance at First Avenue, a rambling two-hour show where he griped about the sound system, played several songs twice and lambasted local rock legend Paul Westerberg
Here's another Ryans atrocity, courtesy of the New York Post:
With his frequent onstage hissy fits, Adams has become our brattiest rocker. During shows, he's been known to complain about the lights, sound, air conditioning, and even fans talking during songs. But his most famous bitch session came during a 2002 concert in Nashville, Tenn. While harmonizing with Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, an obnoxious fan taunted Adams with requests for the Bryan Adams song "Summer of '69." Adams stopped playing, had the house lights turned up, reimbursed the guy for the cost of his ticket and had him thrown out.
I read elsewhere that a sympathetic usher let the Adams/Adams fan back in.
