No more dudes holding up their phones so friends can hear a concert. And no more rude interruptions for Broadway theatergo- ers. Overriding Mayor Michael Bloomberg's veto, the City Council voted 38-5 on Wednesday to ban the use of cell phones at public performanc- es. Talking on a cell phone, dialing, listen- ing or even having one ring during a performance will constitute a violation punishable by a $50 fine. The law covers concerts, movies, plays, lectures, dance performances, museums, libraries and galleries. Cell phone use would still be permitted at sporting events and in emergencies, and people would still be allowed to speak on phones in lobbies and during intermis- sions. The use of audible pagers was also banned. The prime sponsor, City Councilman Phil Reed, said the idea came from the- ater owners tired of incessant phone ringing and loud conversations during performances. "I think it's a real quality-of-life issue," Reed said. "People overwhelmingly want this to happen. And because it would only apply during the perform- ance, it's not a lot to ask of people to do." The mayor, however, has said the leg- islation would be unnecessary and almost impossible to enforce. "We do not hesitate to 'shush," Bloomberg wrote in his veto letter last month. "Some standards of conduct, not finding out there's an internship for people like you: priceless directly affecting public health or safety, can best be enforced not through legis- lation but through less formal means."
