In the comment section few people are asking how I can enjoy the show if I'm recording it with my phone, and complaining in general about using cameras to record shitty videos while bothering other people, and instead of answering one by one, I thought I might add a few lines here regarding the two issues (yes, it's two different ones).
My PERSONAL 'policy' regarding concerts is simple, I only record them if the following conditions apply: 1) the band is ok with it, and does not specifically ask to keep the phones down, like Placebo (and that's why there's no Placebo gig here on my channel); 2) I am at the barrier in the first row or catwalk, which allows me to keep the phone at my chest level (because I have no one in front of me) or below my nose (or, in any case, not in front of my eyes) if I have a short person in front of me (as with this DM concert). I am quite tall, but if I have taller people in front of me, then I just don't record anything, because I would have to raise my hand above their level, and I would bother the person behind me. This way, instead, I am not annoying anyone, because I almost never raise my hand unnecessarily above my head, and I still enjoy the show watching it with my own eyes (as I don't need to keep my eyes on the camera; I don't zoom in or out continuously, I don't change settings on the phone all the time, I don't move it from horizontal to vertical or viceversa etc etc, I just keep it in my hand and let it record it).
As for the second issue at hand, the general use (over-use) of phones at concert, I actually agree with people complaining about it. Because, unfortunately, the vast majority of fans just raise their hands up regardless of who's behind them, and people behind them will do the same in turn, and so on and on. And most people are looking at their cameras while doing so, trying to zoom in to catch closer action, changing settings, etc etc. If they prefer to do that instead of focusing on the concert it's their decision and I don't mind, but raising their hands in order to keep the phone as high as possible, bothering other people is really annoying. I hope that's enough of an explanation.
