:00:11. > :00:14.of today's top stories this afternoon. Coming up: Mr Bieber up

:00:14. > :00:24.for a Teen Choice Award. And Springwatch is back, but where's

:00:24. > :00:27.First, have you ever been to a concert where almost everyone in the

:00:27. > :00:32.audience is taking pictures with their phones? Did it put you off?

:00:32. > :00:34.Well, it's putting off a number of artists and bands who say they're

:00:34. > :00:40.frustrated with fans holding up damage totes record a piece of the

:00:40. > :00:44.action. -- holding up their phones to record

:00:44. > :00:48.a piece of the action. This is the Saturdays. The audio is

:00:48. > :00:52.poor and so is the quality of the video. That's because it was filmed

:00:52. > :00:57.by a fan and uploaded to the internet. The proper video looks

:00:57. > :01:00.like this. Some bands say they've had enough of

:01:00. > :01:05.fans filming gigs on their smartphones. They want people to

:01:05. > :01:09.leave them in their pockets or at homes. Bands like ALT-J. They find

:01:09. > :01:14.the whole thing annoying with a sea of phones constantly flashing and

:01:14. > :01:18.ruining the atmosphere. Venues big and small usually let you keep hold

:01:18. > :01:23.of your gadgets. But there are strict rules what have you can do

:01:23. > :01:27.with your footage. If you put it online and share it without the

:01:27. > :01:32.artist's permission, you could get into trouble. Scott Mills gave us

:01:32. > :01:36.his views. I've been with mates before to gigs and they spend the

:01:36. > :01:41.whole time watching the whole thing through their camera but sometimes

:01:41. > :01:44.it gets me annoyed. I think just watch the gig. What they're doing is

:01:44. > :01:49.kind of creating their own special experience of when they were at the

:01:49. > :01:54.gig. Today we asked some of the biggest music venues in the UK about

:01:54. > :01:57.what they thought about you guys recording the action on stage.

:01:57. > :02:01.Scotland's largest exhibition centre said when it comes to fans simply

:02:01. > :02:05.capturing and sharing their memories, it seems silly to ban

:02:05. > :02:09.smartphones. The O 2 says, it's up to the artist or band to decide

:02:09. > :02:14.whether or not fans can be stopped from bringing in their gadgets. And

:02:14. > :02:19.organisers for Radio 1's Big Weekend said they only banned unauthorised

:02:19. > :02:23.professional photographers from the festival. Some artists have embraced

:02:23. > :02:28.the technology. And companies work with the artists and fans to enhance

:02:28. > :02:33.the live experience. With a huge summer of festivals is ahead, it

:02:33. > :02:37.looks like this argument isn't going away. We've been asking you whether

:02:37. > :02:41.you think people should film at gigs or if it ruins the moment. Anna

:02:41. > :02:46.says, " I think it does ruin the atmosphere if people are focussing

:02:46. > :02:49.on what they're recording and not on the songs."

:02:49. > :02:53.Ikram says, " People film because they want to remember the day and

:02:53. > :02:57.there's nothing wrong with that." Next to the war in Syria. Last night

:02:57. > :03:01.politicians in Europe decided to lift a ban on sending weapons to

:03:01. > :03:06.rebels in the country. For more than two years fierce fighting has been

:03:06. > :03:09.going on between the rebels and the government. Around 90 -- 90,000

:03:09. > :03:13.people have been killed. The UK supported the lifting of the ban

:03:13. > :03:22.because they think they might want to help arm the rebels so the war

:03:22. > :03:25.ends more quickly. Other countries like austda don't agree -- Austria

:03:26. > :03:31.don't agree. Top authors like David Walliams have

:03:31. > :03:35.joined up with a charity. Save the Children say a quarter of the

:03:35. > :03:41.world's children aren't doing enough in school because they don't do

:03:41. > :03:45.enough to eat. The report spoke to 7,000 0 3-year-olds and suggest that

:03:45. > :03:48.children who don't have a good diet have more problems reading and

:03:48. > :03:52.writing. This spring is a cold one, the

:03:52. > :03:57.coldest for 30 years. As the BBC's series of Springwatch starts again,

:03:57. > :04:03.the team look at how the late arrival of warm weather and longer

:04:03. > :04:08.days is affecting wildlife. We'll look at the impact on

:04:08. > :04:11.different animals as the weeks go by. Last night we looked at

:04:11. > :04:17.hibernators. It has affected hedgehogs. They're coming out a

:04:17. > :04:20.month later. That isn't a problem but some of these hedgehogs went

:04:21. > :04:25.into hibernation underweight. Some birds haven't been migrating. Some

:04:25. > :04:28.haven't come at all. There are positives and negatives. For us, on

:04:28. > :04:33.Springwatch, it means that some of the birds that have usually fledged

:04:33. > :04:38.by now, we can get cameras on. can watch tonight on BBC Two at 8pm.

:04:38. > :04:42.If there's one thing Justin Bieber's got a lot of it's awards. He could

:04:42. > :04:48.be adding more to his collection. He's been nominated for best male

:04:48. > :04:54.artist at this year's Teen Choice Awards. He'd have to see off tough
