> fuck you David Lynch for supressing FF and and rewind on his DVDs Made me think, do artists have the right to limit the way their art is seen? I can imagine if an artist was doing an exhibition and didn't think the museum was doing their work justice (bad lighting/space wrong), they would refuse. I've noticed when going to music concerts a great deal of people record the whole show via their phones and don't sit back and enjoy the live experience. Sure, they can do what they want, but I doubt I would take their review of the concert seriously. Back in the day, music albums were choreographed and it was always a pleasure listening to it without interruption or distractions. Yeah people would sit in their sofas w/o their phones and listen to whole albums of Pink Floyd! Enter Apple/Spotify. I'm not sure if that happens to the same extent anymore. I think we lost something there. Disabling FF/Rewind is a bit draconian however.

But I would always get up and skip the last song on the first side, a track clearly added for radio play that didn't fit with the rest of the album. My choice, not the band's.

Thanks to some of those people, we have some amazing fan compiled performances like Another Version Of The Truth: The Gift [1] from a group named This One Is On Us [2]. The NIN Lights in the Sky Tour was something to behold, and I had to go twice to be able to take it all in. While I agree that you should live in the moment instead of behind a screen, we wouldn't have this without some of those people that want to memorialize it.

  I'm so glad I went to lights in the sky. It felt pretty special.
