Plenty of tailgating there and my brother walked right in with a 3" knife in his pocket and they didnt pat him down at all. Randomly making stuff up again? "Taping and bootlegs Dave Matthews Band allows audience members to record most live shows and permits non-profit trading and streaming of the audience recordings.[56] The band cites college students trading these tapes in the early 1990s as a key reason for their current fame.[citation needed] Up until February 23, 1995 the band allowed tapers to plug directly into the soundboard at shows but after profiteering on these often high quality tapings, the taping policy was changed to only include microphones.[56] The band and its management also worked with the US federal government in 1996 to launch a crackdown on for-profit bootleggers, which resulted in large-scale arrests of those responsible for illegally manufacturing and selling copies of DMB material.[citation needed] To further combat bootleggers,[citation needed] the band released their first live album, Live at Red Rocks 8.15.95, to satisfy the demand for live recordings. In recent years it has been common to see several sources per show, sometimes as many as five or more.[57] As microphones and recording equipment have become less expensive and of higher quality, the quality of tapings has improved.[citation needed]" --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/dave-matthews-band-at-spac/252475)._
