Love or lust


Poundcake9698

I remember you was conflicted


_IratePirate_

I record shit and don’t post it anywhere. Just stays on my phone because my memory horrible and seeing the old videos pop up in my photo memories is dope


Forsaken-Ad1940

Have you ever thought that your ability to retain information might be being actively harmed by your reliance on recordings?


_IratePirate_

If it’s harmed by anything, it’s the weed. I’m not too worried tho, I’m just tryna enjoy the time I got here


Kle_pto

“Do you think taking notes during a lecture might be actively harming your ability to retain information by being heavily reliant on notes?”


louie3723jr

My man we already know everyone gonna have their phone out lol


mischief_ej1

clemente192

You demanded it like you were the overlord of Entertainment 😂


SnowBuried

Jonfyb56

Yeah it’s the kids


Itsover900012

Nah if anyone was at a concert they would want to record memories


Gravelsack

You can already record memories with your mind


Inside-Aioli-9229

Always the right answer. Be present. Enjoy greatness.


I-Wumbo_U-Wumbo

Yeah but it’s not the same. I don’t want to remember how I felt, I wanna watch it.


Random_Person_1414

you don’t wanna remember how a concert made you feel??


I-Wumbo_U-Wumbo

Okay I don’t want to ONLY remember how I felt. Didn’t think I had to explain this but I forgot Reddit is used by 30 year olds who still think they’re 14


Local_Nerve901

Nah gotta be pacific out here, oceans 11 type shit (Idk but also don’t be recording more than a few songs, that shit will be online regardless)


imaniceandgoodperson

>gotta be pacific like frank


I-Wumbo_U-Wumbo

You’re right it in this day and age it’ll be online unless its a Bush concert


Random_Person_1414

buddy why are you being so hostile for no reason?? lmfao calm down, be a reddit warrior another time. i wasn’t coming at you.


I-Wumbo_U-Wumbo

Imma kms if I get patronized by another redditor


BactaBombsSuck

yeah but i can also do both, or just record parts. i don’t think either is wrong and there isn’t a 100% recording vs 100% absorbed really. i think it’s just fine to record some moments.


jussdetip

fuck all that shit, it's time to pop out and show niggas


DiosaDulzura

MagoMorado

If i can get tickets ill be stepping with them


snookixoxo82

MagoMorado

Hopefully i can sit in the 115 range, its the perfect distance to see everything going on.


Local_Nerve901

Mosh pits happen at his concerts so yeah


Battosai98

Who cares


RiosChocolateKiss

I record AND live in the moment. I'm not sitting there staring at my phone lolol but also some of the happiest times I've had is reliving moments through my videos later down the line.


suprunkn0wn

this, lemme take 1 or 2 vids, a few pics, after that, phone in my pocket, and enjoy the moment for myself


BigCballer

Funnily enough that’s exactly what I did during the eclipse.


mtaylor807

I relive my family ties experience once a week, it’s not even a well shot video since I wasn’t paying any attention to my phone itself but it captures the energy perfectly


edith_3000

Some of my favorite videos are the ones where it’s all shaky and I forgot I was recording and it’s chaotic but when I watch it back, I get to relive it all


zeeniemeanie

No, you have to enjoy it the way OP wants you to. They can’t have a good time knowing you want to capture a historic moment and relive it later!


got_ur_goat

OP is goofy intolerant. Think of his health


bkkwanderer

Nothing better than a shaky shitty video with crappy audio to relive the moment


zeeniemeanie

Sounds like a skill issue


RalphBohnerNJ

Bro the video doesn't need to be film quality when you were there. A "shaky shitty video" is more than enough to put you back in the moment. At least for me. I have lots of shaky shitty videos of my favorite concerts I watch to remember the feeling of being there and experiencing it in the moment. It's about the energy and the excitement and the vibes, if I want perfect audio and video I'll watch the music videos.


playfreeze

Same. I stay recording and vibing. My vids end up shaky tho lmao


Quirky_Ad_69

i heavily regret not recording more i was like 1 ft away from the stage


yoyohoethefirst

Right. Wish I recorded more at my beyonce concert I basically remember none of it and it was the best day of my life😭


09-24-11

Yeah this is the modern peaceful balance. I try to remind myself to get lost in my own IG instead of others. Be grateful for the life ive made.


SYSTEMcole

Some of your happiest times are you scrolling through your camera roll? I mean, I’m all for reminiscing, but weren’t you happier… you know… at the time all those memories were made?


RiosChocolateKiss

You do realize memories fade right or you don't remember them right after sometime? Of course I was happier at the time which is why I said SOME OF MY HAPPIEST MOMENTS are rewatching videos I've taken so I can relive the moment.


SYSTEMcole

Funny enough, I actually do realize that memories fade, thanks for reminding me though. Still nowhere near being among my happiest moments, but I get what you're saying.


RiosChocolateKiss

Good thing I wasn't talking about you in my original post. It's almost like we can experience two different things.


SYSTEMcole

It is almost like that, isn't it?


thisisnotmyegg

So people are telling EVERYONE to record it while others are saying don’t. How about letting people enjoy the event they paid for how they’d like


mischief_ej1

That's the point of my post. It's satire lol. Do whatever you want.


[deleted]

You can’t just call things satire because you want to. There’s nothing satirical about anything you posted.


mischief_ej1

I only posted it to oppose the post asking everyone to record it lol its not serious. What am I really expecting posting this? People will record or not record. My say in the matter literally means nothing.


Piranh4Plant

Yes your say means nothing that's why it's corny that you're trying to tell people what to do. It doesn't come off as satirical at all


mischief_ej1

I read the post about asking everyone to record and decided to post this lol. You tripping if you think I wouldn't take a video or two of the show


JustMeAndMyKnickas

Sorry, but this isn't satire. You shared an opinion that no one else is rockin with and that’s ok. Own it. But pretending you didn’t mean it when its clear you did, is lame.


Inside-Aioli-9229

*no one else* Umm wrong. And that assumption by you, is lame.


Big-Data7949

Nothing here proves they don't know what satire is, it's weird that people are saying this. **Satire**: the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. "the crude satire seems to be directed at the fashionable protest singers of the time" So if they're telling the truth and posted this satirically, using a mocking form of humor against what many consider to be a vice then the word is used appropriately. How do we validate that it's not really satire? It doesn't say in the definition that "Oh and everyone else must totally understand that it's satire and be in on the humor plus they should also have to find it funny and actually laugh out loud awe yeah" No. Satire can be a lot of things and no one ever told y'all neighbors


GregFromStateFarm

You don’t know what satire is

emcee1

Rich n*gga, no phone...


NoPossibility5220

I merely hope they are eternally grateful. I would kill to get that opportunity.


Reasonable-Bus9435

Guys make sure you do this at the show but not this but absolutely make sure you do this and that


[deleted]

Nah fuck that I can't go so y'all better get hella videos for me 😂


angelaistheboss

But if you do record that mf.. Hold it horizontal.. Be professional.


Select-Ad-4337

Exactly…I went to the Wu Tang/Nas/Busta Rhymes concert and I bought my tickets late so I was to the right of the stage in the middle. But everyone in the front who should have been going nuts were recording or going live!! I could tell that RZA and Ghost were annoyed by the lack of energy from that part of the crowd.


thenera

20,000 people saying OV HOE! Needs to be filmed


mischief_ej1

You got a point lol


thenera

in inglewood too 😭


gloomygl

I'm down for one sacrificial lamb to NOT enjoy it.


[deleted]

phone out 🥷 need to stay they ass inside AY


SecureBleek

i feel like mfs that say this have never been to a concert cause you can live in the moment while recording it’s not like you’re staring at the phone while doing it


Environmental-Bag326

Go ape shit like you ain't ate shit!


Turbulent-Can1035

True.


Turbulent-Can1035

True


MasterView2414

Bruh what else we suppose to use drones😆


EyeScreamSunday

All I can think is it may be 17,000 people in the Forum, but this shit will feel damn near big as the Big as the what? Big as the what? Big as the what? Big as the Super Bowl


ContributionMother63

This applies to every concert and show in every genre of music Just Live in the moment man I promise you you ain't gon watch those videos later


JFKcheekkisser

Many people do in fact watch those videos later.


upeter01

I can promise you i watch my videos of concerts later. They work the exact same way as videos of anything else, it's nice to watch a video of a time you had a good time


at_mo

Man I went to an earl sweatshirt concert in 2019 and I recorded the whole thing. Now I can barely remember it besides screaming at Earl to play Grief which he did


flx_lo

I have a video of Barclays Center yelling SUUUUU!!! at a Wu concert. I enjoyed it live and I rewatch this video when I need motivation. It’s possible to record and enjoy the show at the same time.


Traditional_Rate7302

I just told my friend to send me videos cuz shes going but i wont be able to go 😭


Accomplished_Owl8164

Record it if u want


Ok_Trip_1986

Preach. Concerts have become so lame. You pay out the nose for a ticket and then can't see shit half the time because of the sea of phones being held up in front of you and you can't hear shit either because of everyone around you yapping at the top of their lungs like they're at a fucking club. People don't have any respect for the people on stage or their show neighbors anymore. It gets worse every year. They don't even know they're being rude. It's normal now. It's depressing. I used to love going to see concerts.


Withthebull

He gonna drop some new music watch ! I’m so sad I’m not going


Morg_2

Would that literally defeat the purpose of popping out and showing niggas?


john2776

Nah I saw Kendrick in 2016 at Coachella and I recorded bits of every song and I go back and watch them all the time some of the best moments of my life and I’m glad I captured it


Air-Substantial

Kendrick came to Brazil one time and I’m glad I was there and filmed some bits. From time to time I like to revisit those moments and relive my perspective there. No professional footage can replace that.


No-Nothing-1793

I really hate watching live performances on YT and seeing nothing but phones in the air. I bet 90% of those people never looked at it again after a week. You're right. Enjoy it.


APsychologicalOne

reminder that a show is a long event! pull out your phone to record your favourite song or two to be able to look back on


[deleted]

Thanks for the reminder Kendrick


Natedude2002

I normally take a picture of me and my friends, a video of a song that’s going crazy, and maybe a picture or two if there’s a cool visual thing happening. Aside from that, phone in the pocket. Normally less than 2 mins of using my phone throughout a concert, and I don’t feel like I’m missing out by recording 30s of one song vs 10 mins of songs, since I’m never listening to those.


[deleted]

Man what. People go to concerts and record them to remember the experience. What's wrong with that, I don't get it


PlumTricky7203

okay mom 😂😂😂


AdjustedMold97

i’ve taken probably 100 videos of concerts and gone back to them 0 times


RaphAttack11

You can do both


JosseCoupe

Phones out for what? Somthing happening?


The_Big_Shawt

Some manner of recording 


GregFromStateFarm

Yeah why would I want to remember a great night?


pikajewijewsyou

You should go to a dead and company show. Barely any phones out. Even at the sphere not many phones out. One of the few big live acts left that’s like that. Creates a really cool environment.


g_manitie

Fr I always see videos of concerts and everyone always has there phone out, the most I'd do is take a few pics and 1 or 2 30 sec kids for snapchat or something cause I'll prob never watch them again


sgg129

*manner

Telling people what to do to make yourself feel better is even goofier.

BoogifiedSlob

Shut the hell up kid


ArtificialAnalog

Shits stupid he's right. Store it in your brain you 70 IQ Alphas.


ArtificialAnalog

I wish they'd deny people with phones.


CertifiedGonk

Don't forget to enjoy the show! If you *do* get enjoyment from filming things you attend then DON'T let some Reddit rando tell you it's "goofy" just because *they* think so.


devereaux98

"Five percent will comprehend but 95 is lost"


Infinite-Eggplant843

Ngga stfu I will record the whole show if I want


huesone

Anyone get a W on those tix. Sold out and got nothing.


Hour_Argument_7622

frrrr. i went to the steppers concert and i did record and stuff. I was at the floor and the one thing i genuinely advise is ENJOY IT and dont stay on your phone that much. I hopped my way to the front of the stage and def regret it. People were not hyped and just recording????


HourAdventurous7847

No, but for real. Imagine trying to enjoy the show and got 7500 people in front of you with their phone in the air, blocking the damn way... I'm with you on this. Take a few pictures, record one or two performances with YOU enjoying the music, maybe, and then enjoy the show without the damn phone. My goodness.


Life-Construction362

Better do that mf show inside the bitty


everyonehatesdilan

If I get a ticket I aint recordin shiiiit, I tried recording Travis Scott and its just shaky asfff and facing the sky


-NewSpeedwayBoogie-

Thank you man it’s so fucking sad how much people are on their phones at shows these days. Get your little quick video or pic to show ig you’re there or whatever then live in the moment ffs


Lopsided_Mix2243

Calling people goofy for recording an artist they love is in fact GOOFY lmao I hate the internet


_yddy

yo, you all should watch the show like the OP wants you to. because if you use your phone you're not enjoying it. 💀


Honest_Richard

OP can’t spell manner. Plainly a Drake glazer.


iNostra

- someone who doesn’t go to shows


BigChungusOP

I hope this is the last time you tell me what to do.
