IMPORTANT NOTICE TO FANS HEADING TO SAN FRANCISCO

You've all been warned. Sorry, there's nothing we can do about this.

Same for the House of Blues in Myrtle Beach, they've got Metal Detectors, the only way to see the inside of that place is to buy a ticket.


- cdoering - 10-05-2004

any chance they'll allow camera's (still or digital) in the house of blues?


- Tthip - 10-05-2004

The other HOB shows were not a problem for video or still cameras.
Just because this one has metal detectors does not mean you cannot bring in a camera.


- MountainHip - 10-05-2004

Have you been there Dana? There are signs everywhere, for "no recording equipment" etc. If it is allowed I would be very very surprised. Has anyone seen pictures of any hip show from this place, or is there a known recording?


- Tthip - 10-05-2004

No I have not been there - but almost all the venues say no recording equipment allowed.
Here is at least one:

05/21/99 - House of Blues, North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina

Technica AT825 > Sony M1 DAT (on 10' mic stand)

Does anyone know about Portland, Seattle and Spokane??

I just go my tickets for Vancouver, and the tickets say no cameras etc.


- MountainHip - 10-05-2004

Tickets usually say no camera etc. It's up to the venue.

- mark - 10-05-2004

when the hip start allowing video taping?


- bigA - 10-05-2004

Do a search for DVD's here.
I video taped the last concert here in 2002 and Chris has been taping shows on the current tour.

HoB venues have weird policies.

At the first Sunset Strip show in '00, security at the door let me in with a point-and-shoot camera but security inside put the kibosh on using it after three photos. Also, the boot of this show has a funny moment where the taper is confronted by security during FC and has to go outside to explain that he got clearance from Mark V. to record, at which time he was hesitantly allowed to continue. At the 2nd show, I didn't bring the camera and didn't see any tapers, not have seen any boots, which is too bad because it was a great show.

At the Chicago '02 shows, security at the door was vigilant with regard to cameras, so I didn't even try one. Obviously, there was at least one taper, who got permission from Mark in advance. Also, it was an over 21 (I'm pretty sure) show, a friend of mine's license from CO was somewhat beat up and hard to read, door security almost didn't let him in and almost tossed me for asking a question about their policy. :roll:

Quote:The other note is that the HOB is really, really strict about no photography. Don't try to sneak the cameras in, unless they're plastic. They use the same wands as at the airport!

HOB Chicago had huge "NO CAMERAS-RECORDING EQUIPMENT" signs everywhere (In nifty Cajun style lettering I might add) and everybody and their mother had a camera, and three guys at the back had mic stands. They checked your age on the way in and that was it.
