Well 11/19 is in the future but I'll let you know. I know Perfect Circle did that on their last tour but haven't heard anything about phone bans for this particular show. I don't see why people get all pissy about it though. Put your phone away and enjoy the show. People like to stand there and film the show so they can watch it later while on the train home, instead of just watching it while it happens. If you have something going on, step outside and check. Unless you're a brain surgeon, there's no reason for people to need them during concerts, movies, etc. My wife has multiple sclerosis. She used to go to concerts with me; now she can't. I record songs and share them with her. I have friends who were in the military who share videos with friends who are still active duty. This isn't a play where a phone could be distracting - - just play your songs and let me be. Fair enough. Although I disagree with the notion that the phones aren't distracting. If there are 1,000 people holding their phones up in front of you, it definitely draws your attention.

Did the lead tool from Tool kick anybody out because they dared take a picture/video of the concert? I'd love to take a tool (maybe a crowbar) and slap it upside his douchey little head.

Unless you're a brain surgeon, there's no reason for people to need them during concerts, movies, etc. We took a little video at the Chevelle concert last month, just a thing to do while you're there. I watched it once, it was awful, there's really no need for it. So yeah, why people take video at concerts is dumb.

What kind of senseless scatterbrain has the half-baked conceit to post on one of the holiest of holy days of the year? November 11, aka Veterans Day, the day that celebrates America’s and the world’s great athlete’s birthday, Hall of Famer Pie Traynor, is a day of prayer, remembrance and litter training, NOT rambling on about what Steph Curry’s favorite Back Street Boys song is or whining on about how there’s no foot cream sold at Major League parks or complaining about how the WNBA’s tickets are so expensive. Veterans Day is a day you traditionally lick toads, walk around a Walmart with no pants on, or painting your nails the color of jubilance. It’s always been a day for changing your car battery, running a brothel, repeating things, being repetitious, repeating things, and studying up to be master of all time, space and dimension. It’s a day to celebrate Hall of Famer Pie Traynor, a man so studly, when he was born, his parents named him after a dessert. His sister Ice-Cream Traynor was a track star in the Olympics and his brother Carmel Apple Traynor was won the arm wrestling championship of the world in both 1922 and 1923. Only the scum of the earth would desecrate this hallowed of days by posting in an internet forum, like these losers: TimLincecum_55 BoSuxFool Father Jack WullieFort crimeboss DSDSquared sdm3 screamingtreefrogs smurfbate You_Got_A_Stew_Goin_Baby Male Rider 69 Aj_June Xeliou66 No_Socks_Here DC-Fan Jep Gambardella MrFurious OrsonSwelles nutsberryfarm bluerisk hi224 OldSamVimes anthonyrocks Johnny-Come-Lately Marv aj_boy_forever FrankSobotka1514 President Baltar onethreetwo poelzig Carl LaFong Rufus-T masterofallgoons themanwithnoshame JHA Durant hoskotafe3 hamsterman11 pimpinainteasy weststigersbob twothousandonemark klawrencio79 NJtoTX ReyKahuka Jackie Chiles millar70 shadyvsesham cwsims millar70 colaghost millar70 And despite a record number of Sandusky award nominees, there can only be one winner and this winner is pure scum. This winner should have to suffer the “work on the homies here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch” scene from Pulp Fiction. He should be sat in a small room and forced to watch “Johnny B Good” over and over. He should be made to go a whole weekend without his phone. The Sandusky winner is. Xeliou66 I had to work, hence I'm entitled to desecrate. There was no sleepy sleep in a warm and cushy bed for me...but the cold, the first snow in the year, and the dark.

I only go to club shows (250 people or so), so with my phone I can get the video and sound pretty well. I'm sure the stadium shows aren't great on most phones.

Take a picture to keep a mental note and that should be the end of it, extenuating circumstances like tristamshandy's notwithstanding. But if you're there, and you want to watch it again, just go home and look it up on youtube and get a soundboard recording which will be 100x better than what your phone will produce. The real kicker for me is when you're seeing someone iconic. Like the last time I saw David Gilmour at MSG and he's playing Wish You Were Here and the entire crowd was lit up like Christmas with people recording it. Fucking, that's a living member of Pink Floyd playing an incredible song and you're recording it instead of watching it. Seems crazy to me, but that's just me. I get it that people want to relive the moment, but if you're going to do that, I don't see past recording one song. I go to a ton of concerts and sure as anything at each one there are a handful of people in my immediate vicinity who will record song after song and post it on instagram, as if anyone else really cares. Life is short, be mindful of the moment. Plus, you paid good money for that ticket!

Has there ever been good looking and sounding concert footage from a cell phone? |

Eventually I should go, just so he'll stop sending me those shitty vids.
