Luc 4,772 Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 Why is it annoying you guys so much? It's not like it was your problem that they "miss the experience" as you say. I just don't get all the annoyance in it lol. So taking a few pics to remember the time of your life shouldn't be allowed cause it annoys you alot? Oh okay its iight It's hard to explain. But when everybody's standing still taking photos it takes away from the experience. I care a lot about public reaction and they're a part of the performance in my opinion. And next to that, there's a kind of peer pressure that you don't notice that most people aren't going to dance if they're the only person dancing but if 50% of the other people were dancing they'd feel okay to do so.

LiseDilling 0 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 It's also about the environment you're in, whether everybody is jumping and having a great time or you're the only one there dancing or paying attention makes a big difference to your enjoyment. That's just true. Of course, whether I have a good time and dance depends on me but it's just not fun to be the only one at a show that seems to enjoy it even a small bit. Totally agree! That's why, IMO, though people should be allowed to filmed the whole thing, it does disturb the experience. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear 7,515 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I agree, but i guess it is each to their own (and i admit i am grateful for all the photo's and footage captured!). It looks bad though on some performances we have on youtube where the audience is just a sea of zombies holding cell phones As long as they are not disturbing anyone else's experience, then it is all good.

djBuffoon 11,642 Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 I hate it beyond all reason. The show will end, you will have a crappy video, and you won't remember actually being there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesmu 0 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I never use my camera during gigs because I prefer to be 'in the moment' as others have said and I'm not good at multi tasking haha However, I don't have problem with other people doing it - in fact I'm very grateful for it because the first thing I do after I've been to a show is look for videos and photos from it :) That said, like everything else, common sense should apply - don't get in people's way and I agree that iPads are just nooooo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dynamite 50,362 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I don't film but it doesn't bother me if others do. You are free to choose not to do it but don't begrudge anyone else the opportunity. You say there most likely will be a DVD - not every tour does and it's not like a full length DVD of each individual show is released for each tour which might negate the need for filming, but this isn't the case. Every show has its own moments and it's those moments which are special to those attending that particular concert - a DVD of another show won't cover this and even if there was a DVD of your show it wouldn't be the same raw, unedited footage you could make yourself.

DiaryOfG 12 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 But aren't you guys happy you can watch a ton of video's of Gaga's tours on youtube ? Like if you are so against camera use during a concert, then you should not benefit them afterwards. And also, be happy so many people filmed the BTW Ball, at least we have some footage of it since there is no DVD coming out Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without that footage, I would've never seen Gaga's motorcycle costume for Heavy Metal Lover or the amaaaazing encores she did with Scheisse. :popcorn: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Papa 0 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 It annoys me endlessly. Take a picture, fine. Make a vine, fine. Make an Instagram video, fine. But don't ****ing film the whole show goddammit! It's really very annoying. ya! Agreed.

miroe 24 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Honestly, how many times are you going to go back and watch the ****ty clip you made at a show? I agree with the OP. Put the cameras away and pay attention. It's also very inconsiderate to the people behind you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bellatrix 34,639 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Honestly, how many times are you going to go back and watch the ****ty clip you made at a show? I agree with the OP. Put the cameras away and pay attention. It's also very inconsiderate to the people behind you. I'd say maybe 5 times right after the show. I recorded some sh*tty clips from BTW Ball in fall 2012, and I haven't watched them in a veeery long time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cameron Dallas 11 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 I got great pictures and video with my iPhone 5 during the BTWB without sacrificing my experience. You just need to be able to have a steady hand and not look at the screen. You can't blame people for wanting to take pictures and video of a memorable experience... Pretty much. I have no problem with it. I'd rather have it be more than a memory, something that i can look back at as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
