Just To Be Clear

I've talked with a few people recently that didn't realize I'm making these recordings with the knowledge of the bands. I'm recording with a metal microphone stand in the audience that's several feet tall, so it's obvious that I'm doing it, not hidden mics or anything like that. Beyond that, all the bands have either given me permission to record (or asked me to in some cases). I also try to get an OK on posting the recordings, unless it's an artist I feel I know well enough to make the call that they won't mind.

I just wanted to mention it because I realize not everyone knows there are bands who don't mind being recorded.
