Theater to Allow Cell Phones During Live Performances

this has GOT to be a joke….

Haynes said this isn’t giving in as much as moving on and getting ready for the next generation of concertgoers, who engage with social media 24/7. “There’s an inevitability to evolving cultural norms. We’re recognizing it early.”

no, how about the next generation who will never be able to appreciate live art the way people used to.

this infuriates me.
