It's a generational/paradigm thing. Stuff changes.

For me, I never cared if folks took pictures or recorded my shows or whatever. I wanted to get the songs I'd found out there---for other sigers to find. I even took a photo of Pete Seeger while I was on stage with the man. I'd do that when, in a festival workshop with others, they were sitting right next to me on stage.   Back then, it didn't matter to them or to me. We just didn't think about it. I did it for 30 years off and on.
