I'd think no one would have a problem seeing over you.

How is that wrong? Drink something less foo foo and damaging to your body.
 
 You'd pay $5-6 for any basic vodka drink, whats wrong about charging more for something you'd spend at least $2.50 at the grocery store for the Red Bull.

first, they dont use the whole can of red bull, the main ingredient is ice, then red bull and finally vodka. Second, $7 would be OK, but $9 is excessive. Third, about the "less foo foo and damaging to your body" thing, fair enough, but sometimes you just need the boost and I cant drink single malt whiskey all the time

#? If you are going to fist pump, watch those damned elbows! Have fun but don't go punching someone's eye out due to your careless regard for others' personal space that is probably jammed right up next to you during a crowded show.

#? Dancing in your seat is fine, but do not spill beer on the person sitting below you.

You know, you could ask for the can, just like on an airplane you can ask for the whole can. I've never seen any bar say no to someone when they ask to get the rest of the Red Bull can.

I don't care if you want to take a few pictures, but don't stand there holding your camera up (with both hands) for minutes at a time.  You're blocking everyone's view behind you.  
 
 And stop sticking your arm out forward, thinking that extra 2 feet is going to give you a much better picture.  My shoulder is not your tripod.

and a suggestion for the chicks...LEAVE YOUR FREEKIN SUITCASE-SIZED PURSES AT HOME.  Believe me, there's no need at a GA concert for your blow dryer, hairspray, three hairbrushes and a comb, full make-up kit, extra shoes, two pairs of panties, a coat, your laptop, a case of breath mints, your flask (altho at the drink prices lately, this might be a good idea if the door staffers don't snag you) another cute outfit and extra hair extensions. If you're planning on getting on the tour bus with the drummer, chances are they'll have a few of these items lying around - albeit slightly used.  There are several designers who make teeny, tiny cross-shoulder bags.  Cell, money, i.d., chapstick, keys, kleenex (cause we all know about toilet paper at concerts..NONE) and if you're smart, a pair of earplugs.  Other than that, leave your crap home, in the car, or check it...otherwise, you are just NOT COOL AT ALL and will never be a 930 Club scenester 'cause they'll know you're just an amateur musichead.

if you are going to post a rule in the concert etiquette thread, you must go and read all other posts so you know what number we are on.
 
 number 24 - (my above paragraph is number 23) wash your hands after you use those fucking awful venue bathrooms.  and check the mirror to make sure your hair is in place.

25) Don't be one of those dudes thats like, "I remember seeing Dylan during the Rolling Thunder Tour...and it was SICK."  When clearly your age is 25 and you would have to had access to a time machine to be there.
 
 25a) Don't be one of those 'reminiscing'fans that bores the people around them with every single date, year and how many times they saw said artist.  If its a good story or good concert, tell it, if not, shut up.
 
 To be fair, I talk about Dylan a lot because I like him a lot, seen him a lot, but I don't tell boring stories about it.

25a) sub para 1) If you saw Dylan and remember it in detail with dates, set lists etc., you didn't really see Dylan.

Are Cell Phones Ruining the Concert Experience?
 
 You decide.  Or just say, "yes."

"are people who care about people on cell phones ruining their own concert experience?"
