I found the answer to my question about whether the picture-taking policy is still in effect at AKUS concerts at the CMT bpard. donslo123 wrote: "I went to see her last night in Jackson, MS. They gave a strong warning before the show that there should be no video or audio recording of the show. They also warned not to use cameras and that they would confiscate any equipment and remove anyone caught taking pictures." Concert goers be warned!

Why was there some kind of problem with it AKUS isn't always this strict. Is it her management of the place they perform. Or the vendors outside the doors selling shirts and CD's and all or what. They just started this policy right? Why? Would love to know the facts or at least a good guess! Krazy Kate

Kate~ I would guess that is has to do with all of the people that take the pictures then sell them on ebay or to the papers and stuff for a profit. And the video cameras also for people who take them then sell a tape of the concert. I think a lot of concerts are taking the no camera concept in to action atleast the ones I have been to in the past years. However if you can sneak your camera in sometimes you can find the right moment to snap a picture or two without being seen. Oh and I think it is up to the artist and his/her managment if they want cameras allowed. This is all just my opnion though.

It could also be the rules of the venues moreso than the band. I didn't expect to be able to take pics at the Dolly concert I went to this past September, but not only did I get them, they let us walk up by the stage and she even posed for a couple fore me. It was at Dollywood so she could do whatever she wanted lol.
I saw AKUS at the Tennessee Theatre in Knoxville and they wouldn't even allow the band's photographer to take pics of them from the pit. It was pretty ridiculous. I was lucky enough to have front and center seats, but was way too chicken to take any pics lol.
