The wife and I went to see Slipknot last night. We got lawn seat and sat way in the back, usually I'm up front but the wife gets claustrophobic. Anyhow, I noticed that people were watching the show through their phones instead of their eyes. It was weird. I decided to get out my phone and take a picture:
The pic doesnt capture all the phones (I'm guessing because of light bleed from the stage), but from my perspective, the audience was just as lit up as the stage from the phones. It was weird.
The crowd just stort of stood there. Hardly any mosh pit. Not much movement at all. I guess the experience doesnt happen anymore unless it goes through a phone.
How does one enjoy themselves if they are super concerned with footage?
