Do you like to take pictures at concerts?

I enjoy taking pictures (and videos) during concerts. I know some people find it distracting, but I like having pictures to look back on and to share with people online who also like the band, so I do it. Plus I am really into photography so I like to take pictures of pretty much anything.
One of the cameras I use (my mom's) is kind of bulky, so it can be a little annoying holding it and trying to get pictures with it, but it takes much better quality photos than my own camera (that is smaller).
So do you take pictures when you go to concerts or don't you?

if i had a smaller camera i would take pictures during concerts to relive the moments when i look at them in the future. however, i haven't taken any mainly because my camera is a bit bulky for my pocket. i'm also afraid of losing it in such an environment as well.

Yeah, I can't fit the camera I use in my pocket either.
My mom at first didn't want to let me take her camera to shows with me, cause she was afraid it'd get ruined. I am super duper carful. It has a neck strap, but instead of putting it around my neck where it'd get bumped by people in the crowd I tie it multiple times around my wrist so I know it won't get dropped.

Around here, most of the venues allow cameras, atleast the venues I like. I hate when venues or bands don't allow cameras.
The big venues, like Arenas and Stadiums, don't let us bring cameras in, but the clubs and coffee shops let you, so I go to those more.
I don't have a cellphone, either, but I bet it would be much easier at concerts if people have them. Then they justneed to carry that one thing aroud with them.

its distracting. I usually will take a few shots of each band, maybe a short video of one of my favorite songs, but then I return to just enjoying the music. You get so much more out of a concert if you aren't distracted by either your camera, or someone else's camera in your way.
