One reason I was pretty over concerts even before covid. Doesn't seem like many people go to actually enjoy the music itself. No one can ever just...be. I'm not going to pay outrageous money to watch a band perform through someone else's phone camera or constantly have to dodge people trying to talk louder than the music is playing. Together we will get those assholes off our lawns, Anonymous!

I've saw this happening at a Bruce Springsteen concert in a regular theater sometime in the 90s.

Chit chat during shows will always be a thing.

Just like how the 6'4" dude with his 6'2" buddy standing towards the front will always be a thing.
