Reply To: The Seattle Triple Door show.
Here they say:
What is your photo policy? Can I bring in a camera?
That is generally up to each individual artist. Our general rule is that you can take pictures as long as it is not a professional rig and that you do not use flash in the theatre. We do not know of the bands photo policy until the night of the show.
That seems specific to still photography, not videotaping, but I looked and failed to find a blanket prohibition on videotaping (or audio recording), which is a good sign. If they’re willing to follow the still photography precedent and defer to the wishes of the artists, you’ll be fine. YouTube appears to have nearly 300 videos matching the query “triple door”, which I can only take as another good sign.
I note also that their page for the show includes the following in his biographical blurb:
He’s passionate about Creative Commons, and releases all his music under a CC license that allows for file sharing and copying, as well as non-commercial derivative works. And his community of fans has rallied around him to generate airplay on hundreds of podcasts, create a library of music videos, and even set up gigs through Eventful.com.
(Emphasis mine)
It seems that at least the author of that blurb has some idea of JoCo’s policies. Then again, it’s entirely possible that the author of the blurb is JoCo. 😉
ETA: Taping P&S might also be a good idea.
