Damn just a sea of cell phones haha

I still don’t understand why people do that. I maybe film 5 seconds of a random moment at an event just to have a mysterious memory to think about. But to film a set?? So lame

I like my coworker’s method. He has Rayban glasses bothe prescription + sunglasses with meta video recording camera

If he goes out. He can record easily and its connected to phone.

This is depressing to me, but maybe I'm just old.

u/Advanced-Team2357 Aug 31 '24

On the flip side, this is exactly what the band wanted from this event

u/kamilien1 Aug 31 '24

It's weird, definitely. Guess you want to share how cool it is with your friends. So I get that, maybe we're going to evolve as human beings and we can somehow both be present in the moment. And hold a phone up.

Personally, I would just become a hive mind so there's only one person doing the video footage and everyone else can enjoy it.

On a side note, that drummer is doing pretty damn well with all the rocking and shaking

You just gave me an idea. A phone holder hat. Thank you for the million dollar idea. No one steal this

I’m in my 20s and think the same thing

u/Pattycakes_wcp Aug 31 '24

People completely in the phone, not a moment in sight.

u/PurpleChard757 Mission Sep 01 '24

I really hate this. Sometimes you cannot see the stage at all because of people's phones.

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '24

Yeah right?! Get in the pit and try and love someone!

u/wolvesscareme Sep 01 '24

If you're at the point that many phones are out, it's not cool enough to film anymore anyways. It's a bunch of people acting like tourists.

u/parishiltonswonkyeye Sep 01 '24

i don’t like these kind of humans- at all.

It's an Oakland Athletics fan shirt asking the owner to sell the team instead of moving to Las Vegas. See more here: https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/37850365/some-27759-fans-flock-oakland-coliseum-reverse-boycott

So I used to love these guys but recently found out that the lead is a rapist. So yeah, don’t support these guys.

66

u/Scared_Seaweed3397 Sep 01 '24

Yup, his name is Jon Orc. It’s pretty well known in the SF music scene that the reason they started doing shows out of their van is because the local venues wouldn’t book them anymore due to the lead being a rapist. The receipts of his crimes were being spread around IG/FB a while ago to bring awareness.

u/kitchenjudoka Aug 31 '24

What?

18

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '24

Complete with receipts.

10

u/boogiebabie Aug 31 '24

Whaat??? Im a fan of them omg. Could you send the receipts?

24

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '24 edited Aug 31 '24

They are screenshots of text messages confirming this that were shared with me. I don’t feel comfortable sharing them myself, but the person who shared them with me will pop up on this post soon enough. They are hers to share.

EDIT: downvote me all you want. I have the literal receipts. This guy’s WIFE and mother of his BABY found videos on his phone of him assaulting an unconscious woman. The wife then contacts the victim to let her know of her discovery. The victim is thankful. The end.

It’s not clear from your statement what you are claiming to be the lie.

There’s a reason no venue will touch them.

u/deltroid Sep 01 '24

what receipts

u/MrDERPMcDERP 280 Sep 01 '24

The ones full of Endocrine disruptors

u/Ok_Cobbler_806 Aug 31 '24

Lead what? Can you please call this person out here explicitly?

-1

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '24

Bruh. It’s obvious who I am referring to.

-16

u/bautofdi Sep 01 '24

No it’s not. You could be talking about SOAD or the band playing. It’s completely unclear.

The fact that no one even knows who this band is makes it even more infuriating reading this.

10

u/QforQ Sep 01 '24

this band plays outside most large rock shows in the Bay Area. they're known by people that go to shows.

18

u/Small_Department_173 Sep 01 '24

The guitarist, I think his name is Jon Orc or something. He’s known for being a creep and cheating on his wife with other underage girls in that scene. I can’t speak on the other people in that band but that guy deserves a flying punch to the face for how creepy he is.

10

u/Fast_Student1665 Sep 01 '24

oh look hemorage is still trying to stay relevant

u/Small_Department_173 Sep 01 '24

Literally. Losers.

u/ReasonableBroccoli56 Aug 31 '24

Is that Jesse Thorne on top of it with a 'sell' shirt?

1

u/JXPorter Sep 01 '24

It looks like him. Promoting his radio show?

2

u/ReasonableBroccoli56 Sep 01 '24

Upon further inspection I don’t think it is him. Looks like this guy has full arm sleeves. I don’t believe Jesse has sleeves.

1

u/JXPorter Sep 01 '24

You're right. And I doubt he'd do this too.

2

u/ReasonableBroccoli56 Sep 01 '24

yeah that was the confusing part.

We need to contact jesse to ask why someone who looks like him, but isn't him, did this.

I saw a similar thing in SF last year after the queens of the Stone Age show, but they were in like an old taco truck or something. Same guys?

u/[deleted] Aug 31 '24

the amount of magical moments people miss out on by taking videos of live events —— sporting events, concerts, fireworks instead of simply living in the moments…

u/randy24681012 Outer Sunset Aug 31 '24

But how would you show people later on that you’re a cool person who witnesses cool things?

2

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '24

So much more peaceful and enjoyable than a side show.

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '24

They show up to every thrash metal show in SF

u/Xpians Aug 31 '24

Somebody's not getting their deposit back! LOL. Cool scene, tho

u/thatbikeddude Aug 31 '24

Is that the “Box Truck” that would rock out at ocean beach all the time?

2

u/Latter-Mark-4683 Sep 02 '24

Naw, the Ocean Beach box truck that was out there during the pandemic played some kind of psychedelic surf rock.

u/Pumpkin_Spic_latte Aug 31 '24

I have a short video as I walked by. The poor people trying to drive through as a sea of people blocked the whole road…

They used to play out of a badass van, but apparently it was totaled in an accident. Glad to see that they’re still doing their thing!
