a good idea to steal from umphrey\'s?

from their newly revised taping policy~

Quote
Umphrey\'s McGee will be offering a limited number of complimentary tickets to audience tapers, on a case by case basis. The taper must agree to make an attempt to distribute his recording in exchange for the ticket. Tapers must contact Umphrey\'s at least 48 hours in advance of the show in order to participate in this new program. If interested, or for more information, please contact jon@umphreys.com.


just a thought....

I believe this already happens for Breakfast tapers. Not all of them but I know the "regulars\' usually are listed due to their work.
I know Dave arranges for tapers away from home i.e. midwest and west coast to get in so the shows are taped.
Worrying is like praying for something you don't want.

we\'ve been doing this for a while. there\'s always a guest list slot available for a taper at breakfast shows (one per show), and i\'m constantly actively looking to get those slots filled.. the whole thing is actually a pretty big pain, but whatever..
