I was at a clipping concert with my spouse back in August. We got there early and had spots right up against the stage.

A couple songs into the show a lady taps me on the shoulder trying to hand me her phone and asked me to record the show for her.

I just yelled “No!” and turned my back on her.

Absolutely bonkers behavior from these kinds of people.

Wow that’s some audacity. Glad you told her to shove it.

They need to implement berlin club rules at concerts

"No photography", they put a sticker over your phone's lens/es and if you remove it or are caught filming, you're ejected.

I've been to a couple of "oldskool" raves in the last 18 months and had stickers put on my phone because the organisers didn't want it to ruin the immersion of it being a 90s throwback rave.

I tried to go to that show. How was it? I could never convince the ticket site I was human so I gave up.

I’ve done it for someone for a few seconds. They might have been under 5ft tall and they were like “I don’t want to climb on someone’s shoulders and block everyone.”

Some drunk woman at an Alice Cooper concert just shoved her phone in my partners hands once so he could film while she danced drunkenly. He’s very socially anxious, so he just stood there for a while before my dad noticed what happened and just handed the phone back to her. Bizarre behavior.

Sounds like you missed a chance to get yourself a free second phone.

Not that crazy of an ask. She didn’t want to shove her hand in front of you. If it’s a one off ask if record for 15 seconds then hand it back and then we’re all friends

That’s not that crazy of an ask, she could’ve done this other completely rude thing too!!

u/bach_double 28d ago

I’d take someone politely asking rather than shoving their hand in front of me or filming the whole time behind me all day

Sure if those are my only two options
