| Re: Ludicrous camera policy
This has been common policy in (all) nightclubs since nineteen oatcake. Same as gigs, festivals and other related events.
"Professional camera" used to be an easy-ish way to identify folks who may be planning on exploiting (commercially or otherwise) the club and/or their punters.
These days not so useful but I've never heard of anywhere to have succesfully updated the policy. |
