I've taped there, very awesome room to be sure, you have three taping options: (1) balcony, low and very wide and is a popular taping location, (2) front of room/middle of dance floor, seen people record Karl at that location before and neither the band nor the venue cared but no protection whatsoever, (3) back of dancefloor where there is a wall that separates the dancefloor from the upper level/bar area overlooking the dancefloor and stage, the wall provides protection and is where I suggest you go, but beware of the balcony overhanging it though (echos),Grider
