TAPING POLICY
 
Fog City Records works with real live musicians playing actual three-dimensional instruments, and has supported live taping from our inception. Most of our artists (past and present), including MOFRO, Papa Mali, Galactic, Garage A Trois, Robert Walter, and Stanton Moore, encourage audio taping of their live shows for personal, non-commercial, at-home style enjoyment.

Of course, we highly recommend that you support the tireless efforts of these brave and generous souls by picking up a copy of their albums. By doing so you help directly support these bands (and independently recorded and released music in general).


Some specific policies:

Audience audio recordings of live performances are allowed for non-commercial purposes ONLY.

Audience tapers, please be respectful of other showgoers by being as unobtrusive as reasonably possible.

No soundboard patches will be available. Please respect the time and professional space of the band's sound engineer by not asking for patches, power, or technical assistance related to your taping of the performance.

All copyrights for these audio recordings are reserved by the band, and any commercial use of said recordings is absolutely forbidden. Live audio recordings may be traded freely on a strictly not-for-profit basis. Some venues forbid live recording and in these cases we must abide by their wishes.

Video taping is generally NOT allowed. Audience photography of performances is generally allowed. Please, NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY. More generally, use common sense and be respectful.

All copyrights for any photographs are reserved by the band, and any commercial use of said recordings is absolutely forbidden. Photographs may be traded freely on a strictly not-for-profit basis. Some venues forbid photography and in these cases we must abide by their wishes.

Anyone seeking to photograph for professional or press related purposes must seek approval at least 48 hours prior to performance.
