Off: MQB

[Dan Witt]

Let me add a few things here, just to clarify I guess.

When I went to the show I asked for permission to tape, I was given
permission to tape, I did nothing furtive.  I guess I assumed in that
environment there was no problem with letting other people hear what I
recorded.  There were 5 people that I saw taping the show, with either video
or audio devices, all in plain sight.  I still believe now that the band
will not have a problem with this, I really do, but I'm fine with whatever
the decision is.

I agree open trading of live shows is a good thing for bands.
I think we all know the arguments.  The thing to remember is this; if you
like a band and enjoy listening to the live stuff make sure you buy some
official CDs.  That's common sense and probably doesn't have to be said.  If
you like and own a particular live show and the band releases that exact
show, you really must buy it, there again just common sense.

I would never knowingly do anything to harm any band or any of the retailers
on this list.
