This is slightly off topic, but the author is lucky no one snapped his PlayBook out his hands and beat him senseless with it. It's becoming increasingly rare to be able to go to a live show and not be distracted by people like the author. The PlayBook—and the iPad 2, I suppose, if people decide to bring it to a show—are just going to make the problem worse. In 2009 at the Tower Theater just outside Philly, an otherwise-amazing show was ruined by a couple of tweens in front of me who were watching the damn show through their cameras' LCD viewfinders, which were brighter than the lighting on the stage from out vantage point. I went gramps on their asses and told them I'm sure "the Facebook" already had a couple hundred videos of exactly what they were watching, so maybe they could do themselves a favor and Just Watch The Fucking Show, Assholes. James Murphy asked people to do much the same thing at the farewell LCD Soundsystem show I went to at Terminal 5. Just Fucking Be There.
