#42.  You know the songs better than the newbie you bring.   Do not let him/her leave at inopportune times.

Example
Them:  "This sounds slow - I'm off for a piss and beer run"
You:  "This is Dondante.  You're not going anywhere".

QuoteBring someone new to a show.   Watch him/her out of the corner of your eye.   Try to catch the precise moment when the lightbulb goes on that this is the best shit they've ever seen.



nice one!  i'll have to remember this sat...

This is probably a corollary to #14, but I always like getting a random high five from a stranger during Mahgeetah.  Never fails to make me smile.

I will definitely hit you up Saturday night.   However, I know wonder if that counts as a random high five from a stranger since you posted that here?

Cell phones are only to be used to take pictures with if you dont own a digital camera. All of your real friends are at the show with you, on stage and in the crowd. Airplane mode should be on for the entire show, including the opener whom you may not care about

good call, I'm really surprised there haven't been any cellphone rules until now.

I know! Everyone says the same thing about every show- "there were a ton of dicks on their phones the entire time"

I always wonder what happens to all those crappy cell phone pics.  I like to think that someone, somewhere is blowing them up poster-size and framing them.   ;D

How about refrain from using flash if you're compelled to take photos? There were people at the Preservation Hall show using flash. That room is about the size of my kitchen. What. The. Hell?!?
God sure baked a lot of fruitcake, baby.

Superagreed. I take a lot of photos, but I never have the flash on. I'm sure if I did, though, some of the artists I've seen would have come off the stage and kicked my ass
I NEEDED IT MOST WHENEVER tbh

This! I was random high fiving every mofo around me at the NashVegas show :) Too bad I wasn't by the glowstick throwing doucher so I could "accidentally" miss the high five & plant an open handed palm directly on the bridge of his nose :P
Homer no function beer well without.

Once, and only once during a show, when the tingles come over you, and you realize how lucky you are (in the history and future of the world) to be witnessing an event as monumental as a My Morning Jacket concert, you can levitate a little.  No more than 1 1/2 - 2 1/4 inches off the ground though...you don't want to freak out the people behind you.

I always forget about this one because it usually happens when I'm in the zone.  good call.

with MMJ fever running high these days, I thought this thread worth bumping.   See post # 1.

I always do 40 and 14.   I hope to do 12 and 21.
