Heading to a big music festival? Better check if that selfie stick you love to use is allowed through the gates as some big name musical venues are banning the selfie-shooting tool.
Yes, the selfie stick is not welcome at Coachella or Lollapolooza this year, two of the top U.S. music festivals. The ban list by Lollapalooza states: "GoPro attachments like sticks, selfie sticks and monopods" are prohibited. For Coachella, the website states: "selfie sticks/narcissistics" are not welcome at the event.
The news comes on the heels of a similar ban at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., as Tech Times reported earlier in March. Over in Australia, the selfie stick was prohibited at the Soundwave event as organizers stated the "wands of narcissism" distracted from the event's focus.
