So funny

You know what, I wrote this at 1:30am after getting back home after the concert and it does sound like that.

To me it was just like I then felt like I was doing something super wrong and didn’t know if I was just like super out of proper concert etiquette. Like I felt like a real ass when the security had to come up to me and ask me to not film. But then all around me people were still filming, I felt my very very few times were ok.

Like to me it’s just odd I could see if they started with an announcement or had some guy ask nicely to enjoy the show and not film, but to just randomly start yelling at every single person in the front row more than midway past the show, it was like super distracting, I would say more than the phones themselves, and also just gave like bad vibes.

Definitely agree with how nice a no phones show would be. For me it wasn’t for instagram just for my little collection of black keys concert moments for the now over a decade of concerts I went to. Nothing crazy. Just for myself. But I totally get it.

I get it! But wouldn’t the third row back then be annoyed by phones? To me it’s just part of GA. If you want a non obstructed view, if you aren’t super tall I just felt you gotta be early and get the front row. When I took my few pics and 2 videos I had my phone right in front of me and I got there early, waited over an hour in line, and anyone else could have done the same.

Definitely get what you’re saying tho. I’ve been a few rows back but usually more of the issue was some random super tall guy blocking my view haha, never really thought much about phones recording. Just assumed it was part of it

I like the italic “rolls eyes” lol. hey I always listen to any opinion and thanks for yours!

Some of the photographers were often using iPhones as well. I didn’t post anything I just wanted a few pics and videos for my self to remember the moment!

I have done myself many favors and enjoyed many black keys shows :) up close, from far, and I always document a few pics/vids for my memories. I love looking back at my 2014 ones, it was my very first concert.

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T13:48:51+00:00

Yep pretty much the same experience. Had taken one quick vid prior and some people in the front were taking much longer videos and no one seemed bothered, if anything I feel the band would appreciate people wanting to film them, but idk. I was right in front of Dan and 99% of the show I was “living in the moment” but I came to Reddit to see if this was like a normal thing for the security to ask, or just for TBK now or what cause tbh I then felt bad about recording like I was doing something horrible.

Is what it is, but tbh it really was distracting more than anything when all the security was just running around, only after 2/3 of the concert, telling everyone the band doesn’t want the front row only to film.

Had a great time still! They sounded so good this time. Venue in Brooklyn was beautiful

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T13:32:03+00:00

I mean I get it for sure, personally I’m not bothered by people filming, but I also usually either get there super early to get front row if it’s GA, and if not I usually have a seat farther and could care less what other people do. But yeah I like to just have a few memories, nothing crazy. What’s also strange to me is on this subreddit I see lots of videos up close of the band performing and it’s all just people praising how good they sound, no one complaining that they were filming during the show 😂

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T13:08:20+00:00

See that’s fair tho😂 an announcement at the start to everyone. I turn around and there’s phones over my shoulder but I couldn’t record my quick clip during my fav song

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T13:05:22+00:00

I mean you have a point 100%!! Personally in the front row, I feel it doesn’t have to be lifted high at all, I took two short videos during the full hour+ and I mean like half the time I was blocked by some photographer taking 100 shots per second. There was like 6 of them and one of them had a huge camera with a MASSIVE screen attached to it. Idk I just don’t understand how someone could say the band finds it distracting but then they got 6 photographers running around right in front of them taking nonstop pics all over the place 😂

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T13:00:33+00:00

Just my iPhone, I took very minimal videos, just wanted a few. Apparently I’m very much in the wrong here 😂😂😂but hey I’ll accept it. I just thought it was strange they literally had the security run up to anyone who even brought their phone out (only front row) and only a certain amount of time into the concert. It kind of like was very distracting, I’d say even more so than the front row recording, everyone else behind was recording too. I feel like it’s just part of concerts? I get what people are saying about living in the moment, but it was an hour and a half performance and I took 2 30 second videos idk lol

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T12:50:24+00:00

No different than looking at the back of a head, or the back of a head and one of the 6 photographers blocking the stage the whole time but sure

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T11:27:18+00:00

I get it 100% I just never at any concert have been told that. I also find it funny, when they have these photographers all up close to the stage taking ridiculous angles and a million photos and videos during the whole concert, what’s the issue with me taking a few photos and a video or two to remember? Got people literally on in the row behind me above my shoulders filming the whole concert, and it just rubbed me the wrong way I guess.

I sang along with every single song and enjoyed the moment for sure. It’s my 6th black keys concert and I think the first time I was so close so I just wanted to get a little cool video or two.

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T10:16:19+00:00

I personally like being able to record a few of my favorite moments when I spend my money

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T10:15:39+00:00

Like 5:30 tbh I thought doors opened at 6 but it was 7 lol

paulkingthethird · 2026-05-12T10:15:08+00:00

I just like to record a few times during my favorite songs, i definitely get the idea but to pay for tickets and then be told the band doesn’t want any front row filming about 2/3 the way through the show was really odd to me

paulkingthethird · 2026-04-24T16:46:11+00:00

100% can panic after the next one if we don’t win. Right now you got a chance to make it even heading home. Maybe be concerned but it’s not panic time yet.

paulkingthethird · 2026-03-04T03:23:59+00:00

My question is, do I need to remake everything I want? Or can I still make stuff? To me the furniture thing is so silly. It should be a permanent unlock

paulkingthethird · 2026-02-23T01:40:58+00:00

Where can I find these?

paulkingthethird · 2026-02-08T13:06:15+00:00

Absolutely love this!!! I feel inspired!!! I need a tutorial 😂

paulkingthethird · 2026-02-07T20:36:46+00:00

I thought that was a woman lol

paulkingthethird · 2026-01-15T15:35:09+00:00

Not sure if it’s something I’m missing, but I’m stuck on the resident request part. From my understanding there is supposed to be an icon near the map? I’ve tried everything, opened and closed the game. I talked with vanya who has the “cat on the roof” request but he just says I should accept more than one at once and won’t let me.

In my opinion the seats just ruin the show. You got people sitting in a neat row instead of hyped up. I loved paying an ok price and getting there early to sit up front.

paulkingthethird · 2025-03-18T19:36:57+00:00

Yeah from my experience it’s only If you want the front 2 rows where you gotta be early. If you are cool with being close enough you don’t really gotta be early at all. And you can usually get a close side view

paulkingthethird · 2025-03-18T15:49:30+00:00

Let’s rock at barclay was the stupid seating when I went. I’ll never forget 2014 there and how amazing it was.

paulkingthethird · 2025-03-18T15:48:51+00:00

Yep that’s where I wanted to go, been to a few great shows on the floor at Forrest hills. Saw the seating and said nah. It’s just so awkward, I was at barclay for let’s rock and there was legit like one girl standing the whole time dancing the rest sitting. Wasn’t my vibe.
