So I went to uni today to take an (oral) exam on Political Economy. I'm in my third year and this subject is a leftover from the first year. Crazy bitch professor flunked me 6 times back then, so I decided to skip a year and wait for the professor switch which happens every 2 years. So this guy is much much better and way more pleasant. And it's finally my turn to take the exam (after waiting for 8 hours) and I know first 3 questions and then the 4th question comes and it's from an additional literature book that I didn't read

Oh crap. :( Tell you what, every time you post on here in future, one of us can pose a question, just for practice.

Even though, I do appreciate all the bootleg footage out there for tours I couldn't make.

Do you really appreciate all of it? All the 50 second cellphone videos? The shaky glimpses at the stage with bass distortion for sound? Is it really worth it?

I appreciate a recording done with professional equipment somewhere in a decent spot. I appreciate the effort from the people who do it and share it with others. I do not appreciate, however, people who have their cellphones out for the entire gig, just taking photos and videos all the time. It's fine to take a few snapshots as a souvenir, but there is no need to take hundreds of photos if everyone else around you is doing it too. I really lost all the tolerance left in me for this at the 2013 Maiden gig in Berlin... a gig I literally saw through the smartphone screens of the people in front of me. I was pissed. Really pissed. These people don't understand that they are ruining the experience for others in the audience. I paid 60 Euros for that gig, that's a lot of money, and there were times when I felt that money was wasted.
 
Mostly because I'm not interested in reading about it or watching it on the TV. To watch it in the flesh, however, is completely different, much like concerts.
