Well, I've been watching some videos of guys DDRing. Very good videos, but I have a simple request for people filming next time. If you're filming people and are near or holding the camera, please,

JUST SHUT UP AND FILM!

Seriously, there were some good videos where you could hear the music and the cameraman just jabbered endlessly through the whole thing! I'm a talkative person and even I knew to keep my trap shut while I was filming other people dancing. Unless you're a trained sportscaster and people actually care about the things you're jabbering about, SHUT UP!

YES!!! I feel the same way. In the Butterfly freestyle from I think lil B or something, there were freaking people yelling the words to the song. I was like shut the hell up! frust.gif blink.gif riiight.gif

No! It's not just that! I mean it's the stuff that the people right next to the camera say! I mean signing along, that one thing, but jabber is another!

It's like you're listening, and it goes a little like this:
Machine: SECOND STAGE... ARE YOU READY?
Camera Guy: Go Joey!
Machine: Living in America... Living in America...
Camera Guy: Did you get that antibiotic?
Guy 2: Yeah, was that thing bad
Machine: New York City Lights (we love America)
Camera Guy: Were you peeing blood?
Machine: I met your children, what did you tell them?
Camera Guy: Yeah. So I have this overdue book at the library.

Etceteras. Things like that.

Sounds like a personal problem. =P

I don't mind personally, as long as it's not a tournament of some sort.
