#shup ut nicki #this has nothing to do with anything anyone is talking about so feel v free to ignore me dkdkdksk #but i just saw the emma chamberlain podcast where she talks about people constantly filming at concerts #and how there's and obsession with posting your experiences online #which is true! the sanpchat/instastories/tiktokification of documenting experience is...yeah #but i think concerts are different because concerts for a lot of people are a once in a lifetime experience #very few people have the income to see multiple shows in a year - some people will only ever see one concert ever in their life #after intentionally saving up for it. esp for big artists #why shouldn't they be able to record their experience? bc i gotta tell you if i ever get to see beyonce in person #i would start taking pictures the week before of the empty venue lol #the idea that someone shouldn't get to go back and relive or share a very rare experience for them has just always rubbed me the wrong way #(maybe bc i'm poor and the most expensive concert I've ever been to was the cheetah girls sksksk) #and like obviously its different if you're going to 50 shows of the same artist and taking pictures to brag. #but i think its fair to say 90% of people aren't doing that. hell 90% can't do that. #also i literally live vicariously through other peoples footage of their concent experience #so yeah. off the soapbox now.
