      <![CDATA[I've started going to shows less often because these days it can be easier to enjoy a connection with the artist on a recording, rather than in a club where you can't hear them because of the talking and your view is constantly blocked by smartphones held aloft so someone can prove they were at an event they didn't actually experience because they were too busy texting or tweeting or checking their e-mail.<br>
<br>
I know daily newspapers now encourage their reporters to tweet constantly, but I would rather wait two hours or 24 and read something of substance than be treated to a string of tweets about something trivial (such as the fact that the tweeter is tweeting).

      <![CDATA[If I take photos and videos with my phone, I keep it as close to my chest as possible, tilting it up at the stage. I don't block people's view of the stage.<br>

It's funny...

      <![CDATA[I agree, Alex. As much as I love documenting my fun and sharing with friends, I feel like I would miss out on what's actually taking place on stage if I did it at a concert/play/comedy show.
