Is this cellphone commercial sending the wrong message about concerts?

Consequence Of Sound recently brought to our attention this new T-Mobile commercial, which the music website refers to as “Jack White’s living hell.” White isn’t a fan of cellphones at his shows, but he’s not the only one.

Anberlin frontman Stephen Christian recently gave his reasonable opinion on the matter, saying, “You’re never gonna watch that, man.” The Eagles have even “banned” cellphones from their concerts.

In the commercial below, pretty much every audience member at the concert is on their phone, texting, taking video and goofing around on social media. Obviously, this is a good thing for phone companies. But it does look like some of the above-mentioned musicians’ worst nightmare. Check it out below, and let us know your thoughts. Do people need their phones out at concerts so much? Or should they just put it away and enjoy the show?
