Im going to the keith urban concert tonight in portland oregon..does anybody know if cameras will be allowed?
I don't have firsthand knowledge of the venue but have friends who live in Estacada who go there. They have sent pictures from concerts they have attended. Most all concerts camera policies are solely up to the discretion of the performer and as far as I know...Keith Urban's policy is that he allows cameras but not professional cameras In other words you can not have interchangeable lenses. Most film SLR's and digital SLR's are not allowed. I should add that I have pictures from his concert so I know he allows them.
Now, this is the clincher. Some digital cameras have a lens that extends to a point where you may find a security person that tells you it is not allowed. That is not his policy. It is not whether the lens extends or the zoom, his policy is no professional cameras. If you should come across a security person that tells you no, stand your ground and tell them you know his policy is no "professional" cameras. They won't argue for long and hold up the line so long as you are firm. Any instance I have encountered dealing with that, the security will back down. They don't know the artists policy and half of them don't know the difference between a professional camera and an optical zoom. Worst case scenario is that if they raise a stink, they will hold it for you until the concert is over. You should really call the venue, discuss it with someone in charge, let them know you are aware of what the camera policy is, get their name and use that name if you come up against any confrontation regarding your bringing it in to the venue. Good luck and enjoy your evening.
