RECORDING Little Feat (including The Paul and Fred Acoustic Duo and all Bill Payne shows) allows AUDIENCE audio taping at almost every live performance. Soundboard patches will not be allowed. Taping is a privilege granted by the band to their fans. By respecting the following guidelines you can help the band extend the privilege of taping for many years to come. When Little Feat is performing at a festival or other event featuring multiple bands, that particular event's policy may override little feat's customary taping policy. When Little Feat is opening for another artist, that particular artist’s policy may override Little Feat’s taping policy. Under certain circumstances we may not allow taping and or duplication of a specific show due to the potential commercial distribution of that performance. (View the list of shows that should not to be traded) All taping is limited to audio only. Little Feat is not in a position to offer AC power to any tapers. Tapers must bring, and are responsible, for all of their own equipment. Home decks and large mixers are not allowed. Please give the working crew/soundman plenty of room and do not set up equipment in a way that would impair them to do their job properly. The enjoyment of the audience in attendance at a concert always takes precedence over recording efforts. This means that at no time should tapers ever require other patrons to be quiet or otherwise interfere with their enjoyment of the show. VIDEO / PHOTOGRAPHY Still photography is permitted for private, noncommercial use only. Photographs cannot be published, sold, reproduced, transferred, distributed, or otherwise commercially exploited in any manner whatsoever. NO flash photography.. Video taping of Little Feat performances is not allowed. DUPLICATION/TRADING The trading and distribution of ALL audience recordings of Little Feat concerts is allowed. The trading and distribution of soundboard recordings of Little Feat concerts prior to 01/01/04 is allowed. The trading and distribution of soundboard recordings of Little Feat after 01/01/04 is NOT allowed All participants in audio recording exchange (regardless of format) acknowledge and respect the copyrights and exclusive ownership of the music and performances by the performers, writers and publishers. All taping must be for personal use only, which may include trading (via analog or digital tape, CD, or digital file transfer). Recordings may be traded freely on a strictly not-for-profit basis (no money is to change hands) and may be traded only for an equivalent amount of similar media. In addition, the media by which audio trading is publicized may not be commercialized. Therefore no commercial gain may be sought by websites offering digital files of our music, whether through advertising, offer links for compensation, exploiting databases compiled from their traffic, or by any other means. If we have chosen to offer for sale a particular Little Feat performance, this "official" version will take precedence over other soundboard recordings and said recordings should no longer be traded, or made available by websites, servers, or other means. In no case may any officially-released Little Feat recording (live or studio) be duplicated or otherwise traded or offered. Taping at Little Feat concerts is authorized for non-commercial purposes only. Unauthorized sale, duplication and/or distribution is strictly forbidden. All Little Feat performances and recordings are the exclusive property of Little Feat. We reserve the right to withdraw our sanction of recording, tape trading, and/or non-commercial digital audio file transfers on a case specific basis or in general, as we deem necessary. If you are aware of any person or site in violation of this policy, please inform Chris Cafiero. Lastly, please support the artists you tape and trade by purchasing the merchandise that keeps them on the road(CD’s, T-shirts etc.). Purchase downloadable Little Feat shows.
