I'm surprised that they aren't playing "harmful belly". Is anyone else? That song is awesome!

To jasonhigdon:
Saw your comments on the digital equipment and how you thought it was funny that people would rather take vids or pics instead of jamming out. I think you have it a little off.
Yes, I thought about being 100% totally in the moment, arms free, head bobbing, eyes closed singing then opening to look at the band. 100% in the moment soaking it all in when I never thought I'd be able to see the band play live again.
Then there's the other side where you can still be in the moment, head bobbing, singing along, one hand free to groove, looking at the band but also, documenting the moment forever and share it with fellow fans who won't be able to see them this time around. Basically the only thing was that I was responsible for holding a hand somewhat steady during a song. Does it detract from pure freedom to completely lose yoursef in the song? Yes, but what I get, we get, is to relive that moment over and over again and share it with other fans.
I hear what you're saying and I always weigh the two options but I think, and hopefully others will too, that a little sacrifice by one brings greater joy to all.

here here Starr~~ what i struggle that is. I'm choosing to document, as best i can, the show i'll be to. 'cause i'm sure there are plenty of fans not able to catch this tour who will appreciate anything they can get |

I will be recording a bit in Pittsburgh but not the whole show. I feel that filming it does take a bit away from the experience for me. I want to share with everyone too. So maybe I will record half. Then again my BF is not a Huge fan so I may convince him to do all the recording for me.  |

To each his/her own!  peace! Jason |
