A problem that has emerged is fans watch a concert from their phone over watching in person, often for a majority to the whole concert. Breaking Benjamin once doused the lights during “Give Me A Sign” and the whole stadium was lit exclusively be fans phones, no lighting from the venue whatsoever. That tells you nearly every fan is on their phone st any given time during a concert. So I have a couple solutions: 1. The artist points out and humiliates a fan they have seen use their phone the most to the crowd in a manner similar to humiliating a heckler. Not once on your, but make it routine for every stop. Similarly, a artist could confiscate and destroy a fans phone onstage by foot or with stage prop. This would cause controversy, even possibly a lawsuit for the artist (although this could easily be shot down in court by the artist stating he was exercising the constitutional right of the First Amendment through the stunt). 2. To disable every fans photo app by satellite telecommunication while they are in the vacinity of the performance (on most phones, to record video you have to access the app to take a picture anyway). The app would crash upon opening every time the fan tried to open if. The reason you go to a concert is to see the artist in person, and enjoy it by witnessing the performance in real time. If you’re going to simply watch it through a screen, you might as well simply watch a archiebed performance on YouTube. What do you all think?
1. If they want to lose fans...... 2. Illegal. (also, unless they have a satellite phone, it wouldn't work. Cell phones use land based towers. It's up to the person who's attending's prerogative. If they want to watch it through the screen while present, that's their choice, even if it is inferior.
Why do you think blind people go? They just want to experience the ambience...soak up the atmosphere, not necessarily look at a handful of people yelling and screaming on stage. Besides viewing can be ridiculously difficult at concerts, there's always the tall dickhead in front of you, who then decides it's a good idea for someone to get onto his shoulders. If you try to say something his tattoos glare at you.
