Restless Heart

blainedapperson:

Some of the posts in the Darren tag really worry me about the kinds of fans who are lucky enough to be seeing him in H2$

You cannot liveblog the whole show, you cannot ~~!!~secretly record anything, you cannot take pictures. You cannot wear your pink sunglasses and your ‘MRS BLAINE ANDERSON!!!!<3XDXD’ shirt.

It is a BROADWAY show, not a silly set of his in a coffee shop or a theme park or whatever, it’s a respectable event. If you get your phone out or start squeeling or -and for the love of god if I find out anyone does this I s2g, yelling ‘I LOVE YOU DARREN!!!!!!’ you will get kicked out, you will piss off the people around you, you will distract Darren on stage, and you will embarrass every fan that walks through the door within those 3 weeks. 

It’s basically like nothing you will ever see Darren do, solely for the fact that it is serious. 

Please don’t ruin it for everyone involved.

Reblogging because ^this for one, but also because I know exactly what this is like. Lizzy and Nikko and I went to the Yale Benefit in San Francisco in May and ran into people like this. People behaved like this. It was a Yale. Benefit. Alumni were there. People were dressed up. I was dressed up. It was a benefit. People should not have gone in there dressed in homemade t-shirts and pink sunglasses. People should not have yelled out during the show. It’s not cool to yell out, “Darren, you’re supermegaawesomefoxyhot!” It’s embarrassing, it’s childish, and it’s rude. Save your cliche shirts and jokes and gushing for another event, another venue, or even the fucking stage door. When you’re in the theater, sit, watch, listen, and enjoy. Do not ruin the experience for other people, and don’t regret something you do in there later on. Just… have common sense. Have tact. It’s okay to be excited and act your age, but recognize the atmosphere and environment you’re in and the people around you.
