Chrissie Hynde Banned Meat At Phoenix Concert

We’re starting to think Chrissie does this meat ban on all her concerts.

We recently told you that Chrissie asked Stubb’s barbecue joint in Texas not to serve meat in the outdoor concert area, and instead there was “wheat roast” and veggie tamales available.

Now, we learn that a similar ban was placed on a recent Phoenix, Arizona concert. From the Phoenix Examiner:

“But she’s not exactly dipping one foot in the grave yet and is still the coolest chick ever, from her knee high black boots to her black jacket with tails to her signature long bangs.”

“Maybe it’s because she eats no meat? At the Pretenders’ request, none was sold at the concession stands during the show. But I can forgive that because it was Chrissie’s wish, even though hot dogs are one of my favorite foods. Fortunately I had eaten dinner before going to the theater, and ironically it was just a salad anyway. But I like to be the one who decides when I will or will not eat meat. I guess my only exception to that rule is if the Pretenders tell me otherwise. Or the Pope.”

“Attendants at the concert also handed out copies of “Vegetarian Starter Kit” magazine because “Chrissie wants everyone to have one”. This meant that while waiting for the show to start, everyone was reading about the nobility of chickens. But hey, if becoming a vegetarian means I can look as fit at fifty-seven as the great Ms. Hynde does, I may have to rethink the whole thing.”

A fan of Chrissie’s rethinking the vegetarian thing? Sounds like Chrissie’s marketing plan is working!
