"Put your phone in this pouch."
-- I don't have a phone.
"Put it in or you can't come in."
-- I don't have a phone.
"Last time I'm asking you nicely."
-- I don't have a phone.
"Ok, whatever, just go inside."
-- Takes out my phone and records Alicia Keys
- mdorazio 10y agoMore like -- Takes out phone and swiftly gets escorted out of the venue by ushers/security. This isn't a policy happening in a vacuum - musicians, comedians, and other performers are taking steps throughout their acts to clamp down on phone recording.
- tells 10y ago"Raise your arms, I'm going to sweep you with this metal detector." -- beep "What's that?" -- uh, nothing "Ok sir, you're going to have to empty your pockets if you wish to enter" -- puts phone in pouch
- jbigelow76 10y agoWe now have the lamest reason ever to buy a burner.
- kbar13 10y agodo burners not have metal components or whatever is detectable by those wands? If so, I'd like one please.
- desdiv 10y agoHe's saying give the security guy your burner phone as a faint. Then the security guy has no reason (and no excuse) to metal detect you and your real phone. Then you use your unpouched real phone to record the concert.
- sgt101 10y agoBut the security guy is also looking for guns and knives and drugs - given the god awful murders of musicians recently isn't that a decent reason to search until "no more bleeping"?
- NTripleOne 10y agoFeint, I think?
- majewsky 10y agoThat same thought came to me when I read the article, but from a different angle: I have a work phone and a private phone, so I could just give up the work phone and see if that's enough for them.
- miloshadzic 10y agoOr you can, you know, just enjoy the show without your phone...
- fit2rule 10y agoOr, you know, just record Alicia Keys with something that isn't a phone ..
- russelluresti 10y agohttps://xkcd.com/1314/ https://xkcd.com/1314/ Here's the thing - you don't get to choose how others best experience an event. While filming it through your phone may not be the best experience to you, you're not everyone. People experience things differently, and their way of experiencing it isn't "wrong".
- miloshadzic 10y agoIt's not about me, it's about the artist, and I sure as hell hope they get a say in how an event gets experienced. That's part of the art.
- buro9 10y ago"Put your phone in this pouch." -- Sure. Continue to then use your watch to read email and record audio. This is a tech race that Yondy will lose.
- majewsky 10y ago"Put your cybernetic implants in this pouch. Resistance is futile."
- incompatible 10y agoOr take a second phone, and you'll be fine.
- imron 10y agoYou can even use it to record security as they're escorting you out of the event once you start using it to record the performance.
- incompatible 10y agoGood idea, another youtube hit.
