LOL! I've actually only seen him break a chair once out of the six times I've seen the show. But the look on Patti's face was priceles! Sometimes he throws it, and he just barely tosses it. Then sometimes he puts more "umph" into it and it still doesn't break. I'm always anticipating that. Incidently, I've only seen him forget lyrics once as well and it was the same night the chair broke. He covered really well, but Patti chimed in and helped him with the words. So I'm also aways anticipating a memory lapse at that one spot! So to answer your question, I'm not sure how regular of a thing it is. The chair *isn't* supposed to break, so I think he tries not to throw it too hard. But sometimes, he's just really in the moment. Hmm, six times in four months. That isn't *really* a lot is it?!
And Kooks, let me know if you want company when you see Sweeney. I'm always up for seeing that show... I'm sorry you didn't get to see I Love You Because. I was really looking forward to hearing what you had to say about the show.
