    Have You Guys Ever Gone To A Concert And Not Been Allowed To Bring A Camera?

    Just got this e-mail from Ticketmaster? WTF?

    Dear Motley Crue Fan,

    Please note that no cameras will be allowed into the Air Canada Centre on Thursday, February 4, 2010 for the Motley Crue event.

    Thanks for being a fan!

      Yeah I got the same problem, not a camera but an mp3 player / recorder I had with me.
      They kept it for me at a security stand in Warsaw 2005 when I was on a Dio show.

      It's kind of absurd since you can't make a worthwhile audio / video recording unless you would have at least semi profi equipment and conditions.

      I tried to tape a Lour Reed concert three years ago, just for me to remember and man all those amateur recordings suck so much it's only encouraging to buy the real thing.

          Are they taking cell phones away from you as well or just real cameras?

                      Plenty. I've attended or worked security at over 100 concerts over the years and many of them had a no cameras policy. Never really questioned it, it's often according to the band's wishes. "No recording devices" is commone too.

                      Just get creative and sneak one in.

                          It's because Vince Neil is so fat nowadays that taking pictures and posting them could only harm the band.

                                  Pretty much all concerts prohibit the use of cameras. When I went to see Guns N' Roses on saturday the guy searched my girlfriends purse and told us we would have to bring the camera back to our car. I complained a bit and he let us go. I managed to snap off a few and get a bit of video but inside the venue one of the 'security' was on my ass and told me to put it away or be tossed out. Pretty fucking harsh when all I wanted was some personal pictures. Its not like I had some kind of professional camera. They don't say anything about cellphones going in but will give you shit if they see you taking pics. I find the ScotiabankPlace here in Ottawa to be especially bad for this. Most of concerts I've been to in Montreal, no one cares.
                                  you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                                          Is it just "hairbands" from the 80's that don't allow you to take pics anymore? Jeeesh?! You would have thought they would embrace the new social networking machine to get their stuff out there to a bigger audience for FREE?!

                                          BTW in retrospect i remember one other time i wasn't allowed to bring a camera and when i went to get padded down by security i just palmed the camera in my hand. When i speak my arms to get searched the guy asked me if i was carrying a camera and i said NOPE! Haha if he looked up he would have seen the camera clearly in my hand haha! Got thru no problemo ;-)

                                              Verizon Wireless Amptheatre in Irvine has the same policy. You can still sneak one in under your scrote.

                                                  there seems to be a recurring theme here of you being padded down, I guess we all have to get our jollies in some way

                                                          How was the concert?

                                                          Like I used to be seriously anti the Axl Guns n Roses version, never even heard the Chinese democracy, but I would probably go if there would be a concert, too curious.

                                                          What was the set like?
