Topic: Radiohead taping?

[joeshambro]

Anyone know what the deal is with taping Radiohead?  I remember back a tour or two ago they were allowing open taping, but that may have changed...  I'm wanting to tape this coming 23rd, so either way, stand or stealth, I'll get it done...

Thanks for the help, because I'm   when it comes to their policy.

as far as i know they're cool as long as no stands are used.  Im planning on taping the merriweather show.  Ill be in the middle of the lawn.  This was recommended to me.  Hope to see you there.

Hit the show last night and there were definitely no stands other than the LD mics they were using by the soundboard (didn't get close enough to see what they were using). I don't think they go so far as to alert security so you'll probably have to crotch to get in, but once you're by them I'd think you're ok.

I would have taped myself but I went with the wife and a few friends and knew there'd be others with much better seats... My first Radiohead and they put on a hell of a show. Too bad you can't tape light shows - amazing setup they've got!

stealth....similar to U2 from what I understand...don't care too much about it...but are not going to advise the venue to help you out.

FWIW from BTAT:

No professional recording equipment. Personal audio recording equipment (e.g. Walkman) allowed. No video cameras. Personal still cameras allowed.
Recent reports indicate that security is allowing pro gear in the door and full rigs have been sighted inside

i got everything in last night, but the tape sounds like total ass.  I mean really ass.  Oh well.

Damon, what were you wearing and how did your tape come out.  Cause i saw someone with the comic book guy shirt with a mic stand in his hand.  Bri's avatar.  I knew you were going so i thought it might be you.

superphatal, you got a stand in too?  how high up did you run?

[super-phat-al]

oh no stand, just stealth.  I crotched it because i thought they would say something.  But my small omnis suck ass.  didn't see any stands

Taping Red Rocks here.

Main goal is to get the SM + Jicks set. If I see someone else taping Radiohead with a nice setup I might just let them do it so I can enjoy their set a bit more / go take a wizz etc.

I'll be posting the results on my website. www.acidcasualties.com.

Later,

mike you don't have any extra tickets do you???  i really want to go to this one....also i don't have anything near a stealth setup...do you think they're allowing open-taping gear inside?
