The upside to having a phone at a concert is reliving the moment, I wish I could go back in time to when Slipknot played in Corpus Christi, Texas in 2008 with the phone I have now, I could've got the moment where Christopher Fehn ran through the crowd and pushed my sister out the way

I may be agnostic, but I like to think that they're rocking out together now, fronting the best band in the afterlife. Jimi's on lead guitar; Chris Cornell's got rhythm and backing vocals; Cliff Burton's on bass, handing off to Lemmy when he wants a go; John Bonham and Neal Peart are having week long drum-offs, and Kurt Cobain's just layering some extra guitar noise over everything.

I wish I could witness a concert like this without cell phones. No distraction, no posting, just pure music.

[@patrickball2493]

You are right the damn phones take pleasure of the moment away.

[@facebookcom-ej7dm]

One of the few good things about being not young (ok, gotta say it, I’m old) is exactly what you said. Been to numerous live concerts both before and after cell phones. No comparison. Just you and 40,000+ people there just for the music and zero other distractions. You are wise beyond your years my friend. Cheers Toronto 🇨🇦

the older i get, the more i realize that queen (and many other bands) simply enriched my life so much. freddie was simply a millennial talent, and so were roger brian and john. simply unbelievable how much good music the 4 men created, and even today, 33 years after freddie's death, their work is unrivaled. queen forever

[@willritter4076]

I'd be honored if some Queen fans would come by & give a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal live performance of RADIO GA-GA in tribute to one of the band's top 80s-era hits and to Roger Taylor (who wrote the song). Live 1-take recording with no autotune or digital editing. Peace & stay safe.
