We had an incident happen at a private gathering at our house yesterday that caused me to ask this question: How do you feel about folks taking camera videos of private jam sessions?

Here's what happenned: We had a housefull of professional musicians. We were letting our hair down, so to speak. Jamming together, telling bad jokes, and just enjoying each other. One person, who is not a performer but is a long time friend, started to take a video of a couple of performers. The lady of the duo stopped him, saying she preferred him to NOT take videos. The person with the camera took this poorly, and he left shortly afterwards. I was so busy with other things that I didn't catch the event until afterwards.

Any thoughts? Thanks, bob(deckman)nelson
