VHS or Beta Doesn't Allow Photography

Hey Michelle, thanks for your post and kind words! I somewhat knew I had it coming as there was a sign posted at the door but Headliners has been getting a little silly with photography lately and I thought it was their policy. When the bar back told me the band had a problem with me, that's when I got a little peeved.
It's over and done, my camera was removed at the Wild and Woolley 10th anniversary earlier this year at Headliners too so I want to blame lack of knowledge of the staff more than anything now.
If you were thinking of getting VHS or Beta's new cd, go ahead and do it. It is a stellar disc.
Thanks again and great writing you're providing the city as well!
Cheers,
kj

Thanks for commenting on this Kory. I think it's awesome that you still encourage me to buy the band's CD. It proves just what a music lover you are and what an asset your blog is and can be to the music community here in Louisville.

I talked about this situation a lot yesterday until I finally figured out what's bothering me about it so much. A band that uses MySpace and blogs to get attention is using social media and those of us involved with it. They want the benefits of social media but apparently they only want participation that they can control. That's a deal breaker with me. If you think blogs, Flickr, social networking and the like are bad or will someway harm your band ok fine don't use those things to promote your band and your music. But you can't have it both ways. You can't use those things when you can control every aspect of it and then be like "um no, we only want professional press people covering our shows." You can't have it both ways.

Thanks again for commenting and sharing your story.
