This was a very entertaining read! I too love being live at a show, without the phone out. I have struggled with this, especially when I first got clean and began attending shows again, getting footage was my thing. I am guilty of filming whole songs; at Mr. Big in Highland I filmed almost the whole show, as Billy Sheehan was directly in front of me. I got to know him after that, when he tripped over his mic stand and asked if anyone had film of it to please send it to him. I did, and also a video of me playing bass to one of his tunes. He posted the short video to his Instagram and called me a "great bass player." If I can share the pic here in will. Thanks for the cool read, and much love and Light. I pray 🙏 you find peace from your PTSD my friend. Keep inspiring and encouraging, teach!
Mr. Big is great! I’m sure you are very respectful and courteous of others when you film; I don’t have a problem with people like that at all haha; it’s great to have that footage as a memento and I’m glad that you and Billy are friends! It’s just when people get in others ways, act super disruptive, etc, is when I have an issue
And thank you so much as always for the kind words my friend ❤️
Nope, I'm about as incognito as they come if I'm taking a video. I don't even want the artist to know. I've gotten good at filming without watching what I'm filming so I can enjoy the show. At lamb of god the only song I filmed was the instrumental Ashes of the Wake because I know Randy doesn't dig seeing everyone with their phones out and I definitely get it.
