All the festivals I work, LINE CHECKS ARE MANDATORY!!!!!!!!
Every act is taped to DAT for archive purposes

So, what are they going to do with it? "Oh - nothing at all! Just
for the archives!" Fine. If it's going to be of no use to you,
don't make it. If it is going to have a use, tell me what for and
we'll negotiate a price for extending a live gig into a recording
session.

At the festivals I work - traditional folk music festivals (maybe the
same ones Barney works - I don't recognize the on-line name), the
archives are indeed archived. Analog tape and DAT is being transferred
to CD, logs are checked and corrected (and put in word processor
format) and occasionally people come in and use them for research -
either when studying a particular song or singer, or style or ethnic
group. Sometimes they're even used on commercial recordings or
broadcast.

Is there anyone here who knows anything about the "Live to 2-track" Joe
Jackson shows in NYC? Sometime in the '80s or early '90s . . . Someone
who was there told me it was much like a TV taping, with perhaps twenty
minutes of tweaking onstage between songs, followed by one or two takes
where the audience was encouraged to applaud by a floor runner.
