When up in town the other weekend we went to the O2 to see Richard Ashcroft in concert (see picture above) it was a good gig, the man was on good form and belted out many of his greatest hits including Bitter Sweet Symphony (his last song) which was a bit of an anthem for us back in 1997!
Something struck me, how many people were wandering around the place getting drinks, it seemed to be a never ending stream of folks going back and forth to the bar and then the toilet, constant movement which was a bit of a distraction from the show! I've not noticed this phenomenon before, mostly when we go to concerts we find our seat and stay put until the end! I guess this is "commercialization" in action, everything is a food and drink consumer opportunity these days, including music venues it seems..
