    Phones were banned at Eddie's two shows in Clearwater and to be honest it took away from both evenings. I don't mind the phones and am able to tune them out pretty effectively. I was not able to tune out ushers and security guards swooping in repeatedly to threaten people who had their phones out. It really went overboard in my opinion.

    Plus...I love shitty youtube videos. :D
    I can see one of two security guards taking this way too seriously and making the problem worse.  

    I also enjoy shitty YouTube videos

    Just read that too. I thought it was someone pissed off someone else had their phone up blocking their view. Why the fuck would someone intentionally do that with a phone?

    Me as well, but it would be great if people didn't hold the cameras above their heads and block the views of everyone behind them. I saw the Pixies last week and when Where is My Mind started, I might as well have been listening to them on the radio because I sure couldn't see them.
