Ouch!
Wonderful videos of mid-concert ringtones, and performers' greatest responses http://t.co/G9cuZnkVae via @blingulator

The video linked here increases my respect for musicians and makes me hope I never let my phone go off during a performance. I've got a hunch that if performance spaces showed a clip like those linked here before concerts instead of the dry announcements they usually make (or if performers played a familar ring tone), they'd connect with audiences more strongly and reduce the number of performance interruptions.
