a marching trumpet Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 So this year im goin to my first DCI show down here in my home town of murfreesboro. I keep seeing on the internet videos people take of corps, but from what im told you cant bring video cameras into the stadium, but people do it. So im wondering if I do bring one in should I keep it well hidden? or do they not really care? if they do see you with it do they take it up? Im just wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest not to do it. No point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Laubhan Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 The lot is one thing, the stadium is quite another... I definitely wouldn't bring it in the gates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexL Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Its been done. Hypothetically, itd probably be easier if you just have a decent camera that can do video...(but not a professional camera, they dont like those either) then you could play it off as just taking pictures. Not much point though, the atlanta show is just after that show. Just get yourself a cheap fan network subscription, and you'll be able to see all the shows there.

hrnguy500 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 use it in the lot! I like seeing those videos online, particularly the hornlines warming up. Everyone and their mom films the drumlines and those are okay to a point. I wouldn't take it into the stands. It is illegal as you know. As much as I like seeing pirated videos I would probably stop you if I sat next to you at the show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glory Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Just because other people did it doesn't make it right. So don't. Drum corps has a hard enough time making ends meet. Those who post unauthorized videos to YouTube and other sites deprive the corps and the activity of the opportunity to sustain themselves. It is tantamount to taking money out of the church collection plate (or at least persuading others not to contribute). Watch the show. That's what you're there for. You'll enjoy it more anyway if you don't have a camera pinned to your cheek. HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty543 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Ok, I will be the first to tell you that if you want to do it, do it. A lot of corps are "ok" with you taking video as long as you don't distribute it on the internet and save it for personal use. But after the season or near the end of the season they will probably stop caring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why there is an announcement before EVERY show saying recording video and audio is not allowed. HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bevinator Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 You are paying money to go in and watch the shows but you will miss alot of the shows if you are video taping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
