RECORDING OF GIGS AND PHOTOGRAPHY Official Statement The official policy of Mark and PCM is that they have no objection to fans taking photographs and making recordings of gigs on video, DAT, MD, and Walkmans providing that in doing so you do not interfere with the enjoyment of other fans. It is expressly understood that resulting photographs and/or sound recordings are purely for your personal use only, if we find anybody seeking to exploit these in any commercial sense then the privilege will be withdrawn. Feeds to soundboards will not be provided so please don't ask. Professional photographic and recording equipment should not be taken to gigs. However, there are a number of venues which, irrespective of the policy of the artist or artist's management, do not allow photography or recording. Such venues will not permit cameras or recording equipment to be taken into the concert hall. In these cases, Mark and PCM will respect the policy of the venues. We recommend that you check the policy of the venue before taking cameras and recording equipment to gigs. Paul Crockford PCM (11/10/04)
