[quote name='skankdelvar' timestamp='1407685426' post='2522990'] Odd that a forum membership of performing musicians might include a significant body of opinion that supports crappy bootlegged phone vids. The disbenefits to the performer are clear, yet so many of us bleat about the punter's rights and swaddle him in our clammy sympathy. Let us get this straight. Mr Frampton is one of [i]us[/i]. The numpty punter who f**ks it up for the performer and - by extension - the rest of the audience is [i]the enemy[/i], whether he be the drunken tosser in the pub who repeatedly demands a request or the phone camera guy who distracts the artist and throws him the finger. Pissing on our own chips again, just like the torrenting / piracy issue. God save us from hobbyists and self-obsessed punters who 'know their rights'.

I don't give a fcuk that this is "modern times and technology, get used to it." and "It's my right." No it's not, it spoils it for others who are more considerate and go to see the show. Yes, included are the tw@ts who hoist their equally tw@tty bints on to their shoulders, obscuring others view. As has been said, it wouldn't happen in the theatre or classical show.

About time this awful selfish behaviour of blocking others view and enjoyment was ended. Well done PF. Can't help wondering when the writ will be served.
