question about MMJ shows

SomethingCreative · Jun 28, 2008, 01:47 PM

I've seen MMJ twice now (Lolla 07 and Bonnaroo 08) But I've yet to see them at their own show...what are their policies on photography? I'm just wondering because some artists are really sensative about it

...every show I have been to there has been so many people taking pictures....I would say just be mature about it and don't have your flash on high and taking pictures every two seconds...that would be annoying, so just take some pictures.....I cant imagine you having a problem doing that.....

I have news .....

I will take a legitimate fan with a real camera taking good photos over every motherfucking slapnut with a cellphone now, who feels he has to take a shitty picture from 50 rows back.

And it doesn't stop there ... Oh, no .....

And after these chuckleheads take a crappy cellphone picture from a football field away from the stage, they now have to call their idiot friends and thell them what song is playing and then send them the bad little photo.

"DUDE! DUDE! I AM SO WASTED!!! DAVE MATTHEWS, BRAH!! WOO HOO! DUDE? DUDE? YOU THERE, DUDE? DUDE, I JUST TOOK THIS FUCKIN' FANTAS ...(YO, BITCH SHOW ME YOUR TITS!!!) DUDE, YOU THERE? THIS TOTALLY HOT BITCH JUST WALKED BY AND I YELLED "YO, BITCH SHOW ME YOUR TITS!!" YOU HEARD ME? RIGHTEOUS!! DUDE, THEY ARE PLAYING "SATELLITE", I HATE THAT WEAKASS PUSSY SHIT! PLAY "ANTS MARCHING", BRAH!!! DUDE, I AM GONNA SEND YOU THE PICTURE I JUST TOOK, OK? CHECK IT OUT! I'LL CALL YOU BACK TO SEE IF (HEY, SKANKS! KISS EACH OTHER!) ....OK, DUDE, I NEED ANOTHER BREWSKI! I WILL CALL YOU WHEN I GET BACK TO THE SEATS!"

Now .... Multiply that by 20,000 ....

You have a Dave Matthews summer show

I've only been to one Dave show (Piedmont Park in Atlanta last year) and it was nothing like that. A lot of people, but a lot of people I was around was really into it, and I was like 100 yds back from the stage.

I hope there is no one like this at the Jacket shows....

I don't think they're big enough yet to start bringing in douche bags.

..... When you start attracting douchebags

..... Yes ... I do believe from the extremely high number of douchebags at the show ..... Also known as douchebagus concertus majorus .....

We can declare MMJ as Major Rock God SuperStars .....

Definitely the first show I saw for MMJ when the audience was so fucking rude. Nobody would shut the fuck up and stop talking.

Good Thing I tuned them out

Please DO NOT use flash!!! Not only is it annoying to the band AND audience but you also will not get better photos using it.

If you are upfront flash will make the photo look really static and boring and if you are back aways in the audience all you will see is backs of heads.

Please, do not use flash.
