Gig goers


Find it strange at gigs
Also when celebrating at footie embrace the moment man

People say they do it for memories but plenty for it for social media likes.
 
Not able to video owt when both my arms are alloft whilst I'm accidentally barging anybody within 5 yards of me.
 
Take a photo during the first song usually, then that’s it. Looks the same first or last, so no point in multiple shots. Don’t bother with videos.

I’ll get called for this, but I do actually upload that picture to Facebook as well. It’s canny when it comes up in your memories.
 
First time at decent size gig tonight, O2 in Leeds sold out, and absolutely astonished at that amount of phones on at all times during the show. Loads and loads. Videoing entire songs. Especially the big songs at the end. Normally I don't give a shit what other people do but it really effects your watching. Your looking over people's heads and there a wall of lit up phone screens. Hope the venue's eventually put up signs saying that's its banned

Usually video one song or part of song and get down near the front for a jump around and sing along.
This. Take something to post on FB then down the front. I’m more likely to photo/video my daft pissed mates singing along than the band though
Only complete wankers get their phones out at gigs.
When I go to festivals I have a rule to take 1 photo of every band I watch. It helps me piece the weekend back together afterwards.

Fuck that. Don't even take me phone with me if there's a group of us. Something else to lose when wrecked and mooching around lost is half the fun. Nee good shouting down the phone at someone "where are you" when yous are both stood next to a stage with a band blasting out tunes

Hate phones me
 
That lasts until about 3rd band on day one. Then I cannot be arsed.
I normally manage quiet well. I take a proper camera so every time I feel it in my pocket I’m reminded to take a shot.

I dunno I’d cope with it them, when people are constantly disappearing to do their own thing. I’ve spent many frustrating hours wandering about on my own looking for people cos they aren’t responding to texts or phones have run out. Even saying “I’ll meet you in the indie disco” only to get there and find they aren’t standing in the arranged places and it’s wall to wall.
