Aw, now I feel bad for my comment earlier. Eh, well, I can understand being so excited about wanting to capture everything, too-almost like you're afraid if you don't capture it all down somehow you'll forget eventually or something. I fully confess to doing the "writing down the set list" thing, I've done that at concerts for my favorite bands. But mainly that's because sometimes I've looked online at setlists and they're incorrect and such, so if I write it down, I have it all proper and accurate. I know. It's a weird obsessive thing. So I'm a bit of a hypocrite on the whole "pay attention to the show" issue, too
.
I've always left the picture taking to whomever goes to a show with me, simply because I'm afraid if I do it my pictures will turn out like crap.
I definitely know the "inner fangirl" feeling you talk about, too, by the way. I used to always find the girls absolutely spazzing out over the Beatles in those clips amusing, but...um...yeah, I wasn't THAT hysterical, but close enough to it, when I've seen bands I like.
