Metal Wani's Fernando Bonenfant conducted an interview with ARMORED SAINT guitarist Jeff Duncan on July 14 at The Underworld in London, England. You can now watch the chat below. Asked for his thoughts on people filming concerts using their mobile phones and texting while the band is performing on stage, Jeff said: "Well, yeah, that can be annoying, especially when you've got a guy with his phone, and you're performing, and there's a guy with his phone right in front of you like this [holds up his hand], it can be very distracting. I think, for them, it ruins their concert experience. 'Cause before cell phones and all that… I mean, I remember the first concert I ever saw — it was 1978; I saw KISS.

And I'd rather experience the show than be nostalgic about a little while ago. It doesn't really make sense." He continued: "If somebody is texting or something, and doing that right in front of me at a show, I'll usually let 'em know that I see them. I'll throw a pick at them or something like that. 'Hi!'
