The Bauhaus pics seem to have gone AWOL, unsere Führer

my bauhaus pics? from nyc? thats because there are none. well, not really.

anyone that took more than 2 photos pics on their camera phones were being ejected from the venue

and you couldnt get a real camera in there.

i have a couple of crappy camera-phone ones that i put up somewhere at some juncture...

Ooops. You seem to be part of an in joke that you're not aware of

There have been a couple of "Omigod, we need NYC Pics!" threads since the gig

Given the harsh policy, however...well, as long as you enjoyed the gig. You did enjoy it, right?

hmmm.......

seriously. the security were everywhere, shining spotlights on you. if you so much as tried to take out your camera they swooped and pulled you out of the venue...

they can see the glow from the lcd screens on digital cameras

it happened to about 3 diff sets of people stood around us

as i say, i managed to get a couple of crappy ones

So no chance of getting my newly discovered mini-disc recorder in then? Even if I do the bra trick?

and yes, i did enjoy it. it waas much as decsribed in that thread about their other gig - bit more stripped down than the 98 dates, but still very, very cool

friday's set list was identical to that one posted too, but on saturday they dropped bela

i forget which one they put in its place... it was very cool though, but there were some seriously pissed off people afterwards

dunno. this was the security for "the nokia times square arena" - a brand new venue in the middle of times square. i'm thinking the ultra-tight security was more to do with the venue than the band.

you could order a CD recording of the gig beforehand, and collect it 15 mins afterwards

we didnt bother though.

Bauhaus/schmauhaus I can find great pics of him online - if I chose to...I need to see the touristy snaps

i'ld assume that the policy is a venue one and the staff where you're going to see them may not be as on the ball.

edit-**note to self : read whole thread before posting**

I found that link too. It and the Bauhaus site are fairly ambigous if those would be the only ones to be offered. Alas, when talking to the sound technician, he said that no more gigs will be offered like that, at least on this tour. Fortunately there was no check at the venue where I saw them, so I am hoping that someone got a recording devise in.

That's the kind of thing we were talking about in the 'the end of bootlegging' thread a while back then

Re cameras at the Bauhaus gigs.... i know what you mean...despite having back stage passes, the security were adamant they were gonna take away my camera at the Minneapolis show, they finally relented after promising not to use it during the performance. I was tempted to take a few...just as well I didn't as we saw at least two people thrown out by the security.
Managed to get a few pics of the wife with Kevin Haskins after the show...even then I felt a little awkward, fearing that some big bloke was gonna chuck me out on the street.
Great gig though
