jb_dub, I agree with most of what you say, except for the part about inconveniencing audience members.<P>The audience is our partner. They are the reason we're doing this (otherwise, we could just stay in the studio, right?). They are, in a more practical vein, the people who are paying us.<P>If we can't get our videos without inconveniencing audience members, then we should have a separate "video call" -- a run-through with few or no audience members, for the express purpose of taping the show.<P>I'm not in favor of making archival tapes during dress rehearsals, since the performance is not, at that point, a finished product.<BR><P>------------------<BR>=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=<BR>Jeffrey E.
