"No Cameras"? WTF?

Massey camera sitch was ridiculous. If security spent as much time trying to stop the idiots from taking pics as they did ensuring people didn't bring bottled water into the venue, it would have probably made for a better evening for everyone (Ed included). People in the front row were snapping away. Amazingly enough, the flashlight beam to the back of the head didn't seem to dissuade them - yeesh. Folks, front row peeps aside, the pics aren't gonna turn out great and you are probably distracting yourself (And those around you) from the music. Just enjoy.

    No, they're not. Even if they did, they'd store it for you.

    people are idiots. they'd rather watch the show through a camera than experience the show itself. why take a picture of a moment your willing to miss. happens at EVERY show.

    Agreed. And I don't even think it's the CAMERAS that are the problem - it's the freaking FLASHES that annoy absolutely everyone.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...
