sickman: My guess is that in most cases they couldn’t care less if your are video taping with your point and shoot, but audio recording would not be allowed.A lot of bands, Van Halen included, audio record their shows, some for release others for record and probably don’t want another recording out there.It was stated that VH recorded all of the 2012 tour.I wish they would make those recordings available.I know Metallica has done it and so has Disturbed.It seems like it would be a great money maker for the bands to offer a download of tonight’s show using a code found on your ticket, or something along those lines.

Multiple people have reported that even with cellphones and point and shoot cameras, they were shut down. It’s most likely going to be a combination of your location and the temperament of the nearest security detail that will determine whether or not you get shoot the whole show, unlike 2012, where everyone was free to shoot without any hassles.
