This was particularly highlighted by
one person who asked permission to use her videos with
acknowledgement on her project. The person concerned is a fan of Scott
Grimes. She writes a fan page on Facebook
and is on good terms with him. She attends concerts and Scott Grimes
Tweets her regularly. She is not what I would call a professional
bootlegger but a fan who has a lot of fun doing something she loves.

“Beautiful Girls” giving you credit of course. 19

You can use my videos any time. More IGP videos are coming too
eventually. 19 October 2012
Bootlegging ie recording live music in
America is illegal and @lyndahere did not have permission from the
musicians to record it.
