Marx, 60, was performing his 1989 hit song “Angelia” alongside fellow rocker Rick Springfield as part of their acoustic tour when the rude caller caught the singer off guard, video obtained by TMZ presented.

The “Right Here Waiting” hitmaker finished the song while the woman continued chatting loudly in the background, noticeably irritating other concertgoers.

Springfield, 74, was happy to have his fellow musicians back and let Marx know that he had dealt with rude audience members in the past.

“It’s kind of wild that happens sometimes,” the “Jessie’s Girl” singer said.

“I was at a place where there was a bar in the back, and I was doing ‘My Father’s Chair’ and there were like four people at the bar chatting.”

Springfield had one final message for the rowdy fan to ease tensions in the room and double down on his support for the “Don’t Mean Nothing” singer.

“I’m going to come into your work and pee on your desk while you work,” the “Love Somebody” singer said before changing direction.

“Let’s get back to the music,” Springfield said when the video ended.
