I almost went to the Ryan Adams concert Monday night but decided not to. Looks like I missed some craziness:

People sometimes confuse petulant rocker Ryan Adams with Canadian hit-maker Bryan Adams, and apparently Ryan finds no humor in the moniker mix-ups. Monday, during Ryan's peculiar Ryman Auditorium show, an audience member jokingly shouted out a request for Bryan Adams' Summer of '69.

Ryan went ballistic: Spewing expletives, he ordered the house lights be turned on, asked the audience to point out the offender, pulled $30 of ticket refund money from his wallet and gave the money to the fan, ordered the fan to leave and said he would not play another note until the fellow was gone.

As dozens in the crowd shouted and pointed angrily at the Summer of '69 guy, Ryman General Manager Pam Matthews hustled down from the balcony and attempted to remedy the situation. She reached the ticket-holder as he was being escorted out by security, ''apologized profusely'' (her words) on behalf of the Ryman and eased the confrontation's aftermath.

With Ryan's tour manager's blessing, Summer of '69 guy was quietly relocated to the balcony. And he kept Ryan's $30.

Maybe the whole thing could have been averted if the dude had just requested Cuts Like A Knife or (Everything I Do) I Do It For You.
