The Poojer Posted March 10, 2013 Posted March 10, 2013 I haven't watched it yet but I had an experience Friday with concert etiquette. Noon show with Django Django, I get down to the stage 2 people from dead center. The 2 people in the center appeared to be an unofficial photographer and his 'assistant'. Well this photographer was getting in everyone's line of vision and his 'assistant' was literally falling asleep on his feet. This photographer had a lens that would have allowed him to be out of the way and still get some great shots. He was taking pics for his own use. Not for any publication or the venue. What a couple of tools!

Dibs Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 A Friday concert at noon? It's for the older crowd....you know....those guys that go to bed at 7.30pm.
The Poojer Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 The Drexel/Penn radio station, WXPN, does a free at noon show on Fridays. An act that is in town will perform for 40-60 minutes broadcast live on the station. Its a nice event. Have seen some really good acts then I go back to work(maybe) A Friday concert at noon? In my defense I had another show at the same venue at 8pm... It's for the older crowd....you know....those guys that go to bed at 7.30pm.
Jim in Anchorage Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 P(ublic) S(ervice) A(nnouncement) :oops:Guess I shoulda opened the video first.
Chef Jim Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I've seen and spoken with him and others from wxpn... So he works for a radio station but the pictures were not for professional use? And as far as I'm concerned people taking pics at a show is part of the scene. What I typically do if I'm up front is get their card so I can check out the pics later.
The Poojer Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 i said he doesn't work for the radio station nor does he work for the venue, nor is he a member of any of the press outlets. he didn't have any cards, i asked....

The Poojer Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) No I guess not implicitly...I should clarify world cafe live, the venue, is a part of WXPN, the radio station.
