I take pictures and videos at gigs too sometimes (like anyone is going to stop me from doing what I want to do with my camera). Suchfriends hates this, I find that Tumblr blog amusing. We're like the Jackson family!

i've taken photos and even shot video at shows (with big cameras and stuff) but i think the problem these days is not that the audience video is "shitty" (whatever that means) but rather that it interferes with other people's experience of the show for two principal reasons:

1) photographers used to stand in the front row (some still have a space), and shoot whatever they wanted. or, if you were some rows back, maybe you used a zoom or whatever. i've shot video where we had designated spots, etc (as most video shoots will do) in bars, theaters, etc. i don't know about others but it makes me self-conscious and you try not to bother the audience. however, most cellphone photographers/videographers feel entitled to their shots and invariably RAISE THEIR HANDS right in front of your face where they can best block your view and put themselves in your personal centers stage.

2) whereas "old" photo/video was shot looking through a viewfinder, lcd screens light up in front of everyone's face in what is often a dark space. multiply this by the curtain effect of everyone and their mother raising their hands in front of everyone else behind them, and you understand why zooey deschanel bans phones at her band's shows (ha ha).

this has nothing to do with being in the moment or whatever, but everything to do with fucking it up for everybody else-- like people with pneumonia coughing at piano concerts.

don't tell suchfriends he's wrong though. he might get irate!

It interferes with other people's experience only if you don't care about people being around you, like when you should be aware that you're in a long queue and wait until your turn to find out where your wallet or any relevant information that may be needed from you is. I work with the general public and I have tons of stories about people going to places and being a waste of time for staff who try to help you.

The weather down along the Gulf coast here in Texas has been unbelievable the past couple of days. As I type, it's 77' outside and I just came in from cutting the front yard. WOW - it feels great outside! While cutting, I found two bird carcasses......wonder how they ended up in the yard covered by leaves?

Fixing me a firefly and going outside to enjoy this wonderful weather......

I take lots of photos at shows at the same time as recording (audio) and sometimes video too. I don't think they're shitty and I still enjoy the show. I try not to block people's view when I'm taking them and I turn the brightness right down on my phone if I'm using it. I see no problem with documenting it for me and others who can't be there. I do get a bit annoyed when people are holding up an iPad to take photos/film. Those things are too big!
