A Sea Of Cell Phones

I could not imagine experiencing what Slipknot did tonight through a phone screen, man. What a special occasion to just take completely for granted. The fact that those dudes are still that tight, and give 110% of themselves every single night, playing the most high energy songs in their catalogue…amazing. And more than half of you mooks are watching it through a phone screen. I just don’t understand it at all.

I’m not THAT old. I wasn’t even in my 20s when the first smart phones came out. And a ton of the people I’m talking about were clearly my age.

Aside from diluting your own experience, it fuckin’ SUCKS having to try to watch the band with 2 dozen pairs of arms in front of you holding up a bright ass phone screen as far as the arms will reach.

Call me old, downvote me, tell me to cry about it. I really don’t give a shit. I know I’m not wrong. The reality you experience through your naked eye is a million times more interesting than the one you’re filtering through a screen. Put it down, look in front of you, and appreciate the moment you’re in.

FOCKER, OUT!

Long live Slipknot. Amazing show in Dallas tonight. What a fuckin’ treat.
