my theory is that if you don't love and artist or at least know 3 or 4 songs to sing along to, you SHOULD NOT go to a concert. I just want to sing to good music when i go. I do not want to be talked to during a song. I don't want you to talk to someone else while i'm singing. I think theremin will agree that mike doughty had the best game to play....
i don't know if you're just being...passionate or whatever. but you are dead wrong! i love going to shows and seeing new bands. take in songs for the first time. i find that to be one of the most FUN things to experience. especially if you end up loving the band. THAT'S good stuff. but if you're just referring to people who go to shows and just talk and carry and not even pay A LITTLE bit of attention--then, nah, thats not cool.
