On October 10, 2002, Tim's archivist Kyle McKay gave permission for shows to be hosted at the Archive:
We asked, "Would this new archive.org site be covered under Tim's regular trading policy?"
Kyle replied, "yes, thats cool, as long as it is free and for the fans,,thanks"
Policy
http://www.timreynolds.com/taping_policy/
Tim Reynolds and TR3 allow audio and video taping at almost every live performance. Tim has an amazing talent for improvization and no two shows are the same. Taping allows fans the opportunity to recreate the live experience. At all taping authorized performances, tapers can tape from any location in the venue that doesn't obstruct the view of others or in areas designated by the venue for taping. Soundboard feeds are sometimes avaliable, but are in no way guaranteed.
Tim himself allows taping, however, some venues do not. If a venue doesn't allow taping there is nothing Tim can do. The venue has final say on taping. If you are planning to tape a show you must contact the venue ahead of time to make sure taping is permitted.
All recordings must be used for personal use or trading only. All audio and video performances belong to Tim Reynolds / TR3 and are not available for promotional use without explicit prior written consent. Selling or commercializing any recording is illegal and will jeopardize taping privileges for everyone.
For a nice overview of how to approach soundmen about taping and what to bring, you should check out "Bands That Allow Taping" at http://btat.wagnerone.com/ There is a great section about the bottom of the page by Joe the soundman in Blacksburg VA on proper ettiquette and things you may need. This list of course varies from venue to venue depending on equipment. That is why it is a good idea to contact the venue well before the show and make sure you have the right equipment. Special Thanx to Mike Wagner for including us and providing this reference.
