	Vivian	Sounds like a reasonable request to me, Taylor. The only problem you have is your fans. They won't listen to this at all. You'll see videos of your shows popping up all over the net! How about I be your spy and report all the rule breakers? I'd be more than happy to, baby. Soul Patrol!   Posted by Vivian on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 - 10:52 PM [Reply to this]

	Vivian	Um... female? Are you trying to tell us something, baby? Hey, I'm all about self experssion. You go... um, Girl! Soul Patrol.   Posted by Vivian on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 - 10:54 PM [Reply to this]

	GeorgiaPeachMarie Marie Byrd	I always knew you were a chick... inside, Taylor.   Posted by GeorgiaPeachMarie on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 12:40 AM [Reply to this]

	GeorgiaPeachMarie Marie Byrd	So, does this apply to everyone or just those scary stalker types? We all know who THEY are! Ahahahahaha!   Posted by GeorgiaPeachMarie on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 12:43 AM [Reply to this]

	Becca P 4-91	For real.... I've been to 2 Taylor shows and I've already figured out who the stalker is haha.... wow.   Posted by Becca P 4-91 on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 2:18 AM [Reply to this]

	Vivian	Confess Rebecca! Who's the REAL stalker? Tell us.   Posted by Vivian on Tuesday, January 20, 2009 - 10:56 PM [Reply to this]

	Julie	Can't wait to hear the new music. Spelling out your wishes erases any chance for misunderstandings.   Posted by Julie on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 12:40 AM [Reply to this]

	Louise	I hope your live show goes well, Taylor. See you in Baltimore! Louise   Posted by Louise on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 12:41 AM [Reply to this]

	Laura	We're really looking forward to that Rams Head Tavern performance, but what a strenuous weekend for Taylor. Grease show Sat night followed by trip to Annapolis and two shows back in B-more on Sunday. But I'm sure he's up to the challenge - we'll enjoy! Laura   Posted by Laura on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:29 AM [Reply to this]

	Ron&Hazelflfans Ronald Hazel Brackin	Taylor your wish should be completely followed... This is one time you have came out and asked for things to be a certain way. You and those working with you feel it's important to follow what you have in mind and release things in Your Way. Which I am sure we will be amazed at the outcome you would like.... GOD bless you Taylor Be safe ~ stay warm ~ and take good care of yourself (STAY WELL):) Luv and Hugs From hazel fl fan   Posted by Ron&Hazelflfans on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:00 AM [Reply to this]

	Tish	I'm glad there is an official policy posted. Can't wait to hear the new music in Annapolis.   Posted by Tish on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:29 AM [Reply to this]

	Tootsie	I am also glad to hear this directly from Taylor. There has always been question about what he really thinks or wants. If I am lucky enough to see one of the live performances I would not think of video taping now. Taylor you are great!!   Posted by Tootsie on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:29 AM [Reply to this]

	Natalie Goik	you're a busy guy, but just a heads up. People ARE planning a cellcert, so feel free to get their asses kicked out or ya know...whatever.   Posted by Natalie Goik on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:41 AM [Reply to this]

	♥ Donna♥	I have never video taped you Taylor, but I will miss all the awesome vids of you. I have taken pics though & hope we're still allowed to bring cameras.   Posted by ♥ Donna♥ on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 2:05 AM [Reply to this]

	*~* Mezmorise *~*	No problem *Soul*Man*, hope people respect your wishe's. If they are true fan's I shouldn't see why it would be a problem. I love ya Taylor can't wait to see you ;) The show must go on ! LOL   Posted by *~* Mezmorise *~* on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 2:34 AM [Reply to this]

	kathy	O.k. I understand the need for the policy esp. now. See you Saturday.   Posted by kathy on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 2:36 AM [Reply to this]

	*~* Mezmorise *~*	Taylor, to those who don't respect your wishes should be escorded out promptly. Wow that never crossed my mind I just take/have took- pictures of you.I hope that due to those who don't abide by the rules don't end up messing it up for the rest of us true "Soul*Patrolers". By not letting anyone photograph you anymore, that would be so sad :( I love you Taylor thank you for the (((Music))) & all that is yet to come, I'll always be looking forward to anything coming from you! ***SOUL*PATROL***!   Posted by *~* Mezmorise *~* on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 2:45 AM [Reply to this]

	TaylorMadeOnline/TheTaylorHicksCommunity	So nice to have this stated so clearly. Any type of broadcasting of these after shows to people not at the shows, whether recorded or night, is going against what is requested. Hope your wishes are respected by all of your fans. Cannot wait to enjoy the new music live!   Posted by TaylorMadeOnline/TheTaylorHicksCommunity on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 3:07 AM [Reply to this]

	Laurie	Could there possibly be a fan base filled with more drama?   Posted by Laurie on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 3:47 AM [Reply to this]

	Natalie Goik	we could look....but i highly doubt it.   Posted by Natalie Goik on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 3:40 PM [Reply to this]

	♫♪DEBI♫SEATTLE GIRL♪♫	How rude! How am I going to re-live my Taylor experiences?? Just kidding.... whatever you say... you're the BIG BOSS MAN! I still love you :)   Posted by ♫♪DEBI♫SEATTLE GIRL♪♫ on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 4:21 AM [Reply to this]

	Loretta	Can we use regular cameras to take photos :-)   Posted by Loretta on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 5:01 AM [Reply to this]

	Stevie Spitfire™	Wow Taylor. I've got to say, as an ex-completely obsessed fan (Now just a regular fan.) I'm disappointed in you. The music is supposed to be for the fans, not for the greedy suits trying to make a buck. I understand that there are copyright laws and such, but a few middle-aged ladies recording a low-quality video and sharing it with the gals on the boards really shouldn't impact your sales. In fact, it should help if posted on a site like youtube or myspace, because it's FREE FREAKIN' ADVERTISMENT. I'm sad to see that things have changed so much since I've left Taylor land. If I go to another of your shows (Which I will if and when you make a stop in Birmingham.) I hope to see that not too much of the music has changed, even if your attitude has. -hickschicks2010   Posted by Stevie Spitfire™ on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 8:13 AM [Reply to this]

	Marcy	Way to go Taylor.....Enjoy Martyrs! See you soon at Ramshead....oh yeah...   Posted by Marcy on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 9:57 AM [Reply to this]

	Dazzler	I really doubt crappy little phone cam's take away from video sales of pro videos. If anything it gives people a taste for better video they can buy. Just think if there was crappy little videos of Elvis during his time. They would be classic. I would be surprised if Taylor wrote this.   Posted by Dazzler on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 12:26 PM [Reply to this]

	Karen	I know that Taylor said this because I was there when he said it to several members of the Soul Patrol, it came directly from his own mouth, and now it's official. I will comply with his wishes.   Posted by Karen on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:22 PM [Reply to this]

	Soul Patrol 43	Hey Taylor, You are the leader of the Soul Patrol and your wishes should be followed. I know that even if someone does record anything from your shows, I will not listen to it. You're the best Taylor. Thanks for the music.   Posted by Soul Patrol 43 on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:11 PM [Reply to this]

	MARIE	OH MY. Why now?   Posted by MARIE on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:50 PM [Reply to this]

	Michelle	Does it really matter WHO wrote it? Like all rules, even if they're liked or not, need to be followed. All concerts of any kind all have the same posting....No video taping/recording allowed. Why should Taylor's be any different. I never video tape any concerts I've been too. People need to abide by this and wait like everyone else who can't be there! I'm glad that this was posted, although I'm sure some will try and sneak something in...good luck to them!   Posted by Michelle on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 1:54 PM [Reply to this]

	lisa	Respect. Other artists get and demand the respect No crazy OMG yelling during the act also,?? respect plain and simple right!   Posted by lisa on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 3:28 PM [Reply to this]

	Lori	This doesn't effect cellcerts..... right? LOL :P Have run on the tour!   Posted by Lori on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 3:54 PM [Reply to this]

	Michelle	Yes Lori it does! It's was asked and answered on HQ. sorry, hon.   Posted by Michelle on Saturday, January 17, 2009 - 6:11 PM [Reply to this]

	Lori	The LOL and the :P meant that I was JOKING.   Posted by Lori on Sunday, January 18, 2009 - 7:32 PM [Reply to this]

	New England Soul Patrol	Thanks for clarifying this Taylor-we may all have to wait a little longer to hear the new music, but it's going to be great!   Posted by New England Soul Patrol on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 7:11 PM [Reply to this]

	Steph	Way to stay true Taylor.   Posted by Steph on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 7:52 PM [Reply to this]

	Peggy	Hey Taylor- Glad to abide by your request. It has always been a rule that I've followed. I truly get annoyed at those who disrespect the rule and I hope if anyone is caught, they do get escorted from the venue. I know it will all be done politely because you wouldn't have it any other way . You are truly a Southern Gentleman. Looking forward to seeing you in Annapolis. Hugs from Staten Island..Peggy   Posted by Peggy on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 8:33 PM [Reply to this]

	EJ	I personally think it's a bad business decision (covers head to avoid rotten tomatoes flung at me by other fans), but I will certainly respect your wishes on this. Looking forward to the Ram's Head show!   Posted by EJ on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 8:58 PM [Reply to this]

	Trish Trish Bertin	I have to agree with a few people below me, I highly doubt Taylor wrote this first of all, but secondly how is a few videos taken with low quality hand held cell phones going to take away from the sales or the love we all hold for him, plain and simple, there not. I have only sadly made it to one show and didn't record it, but wished I had now because I won't be able to attend anymore shows due to a sick daughter, and I would love to replay the video if I only had one, instead I rely on all the others who are able to attend to post a little 30 second to a minute long video on youtube where you can't even see what it is going on or hear what is being said, but I still watch because it's Taylor on the stage, I don't think it's right to take that privelage away from everyone.....Sorry just an opionion......   Posted by Trish on Friday, January 16, 2009 - 9:20 PM [Reply to this]

	Josie	Good for you for making it official. Hope the fans respect your wishes.   Posted by Josie on Saturday, January 17, 2009 - 5:26 AM [Reply to this]

	Daniel Ferguson	Are you doing a show anywhere in Alabama this year? Come back to Bama at least once. I'll be there with as many friends as I can get.   Posted by Daniel Ferguson on Saturday, January 17, 2009 - 6:36 AM [Reply to this]

	Penney~ AHHHHHH In Taylor M&G BLISS	I behaved myself last week :. You were great & I can't wait to see you again   Posted by Penney~ AHHHHHH In Taylor M&G BLISS on Saturday, January 17, 2009 - 8:10 AM [Reply to this]
