Don't you be filming the Brandon High School marching band during a performance.
Public school band, public performance, public facility? Bullshit.
Perhaps the program should worry more about embezzlement than Facebook.

You are a public entity. We the People pay for the overwhelming majority of what you believe you have the right to ban us from. It isn't yours. It isn't mine. Its ours. We make this money for the most part by working for it. Don't you people teach civics there?
The school purchases the rights from the rights-holder to perform the music live. They do not purchase the rights to spread a recorded performance across the www. If there is a claim, the school can honestly say the performance was posted without their consent and against their stated instructions.
What BS is this? Scouting future opponents has been part of football for many decades. But the BAND is now too haughty for someone to take pictures or film them with their phones? The band doesn't score points for the win,. No band "wins" a contest during a high school football game. It is supposedly there to fill in the blanks of half time, etc.
@1:21 - correct.
School administrators have authority to control safety, decorum, and access on school property. If you are inside a school auditorium, gymnasium, or stadium, the school can enforce rules that ban cameras, video recording, or streaming. They also can search your child’s property without a warrant.
And everything/everyone is to be monetized and controlled. Of of experience and reality aren't really experience or reality unless "recorded" digitally - making it content that is controlled. This is literally what the younger generation has come to believe.
It's a performative warning to shield the schools from threats of liability. Private equity scum (again effin up American life) have bought up music catalogs, exploiting a belief that they can transform old songs into some strong financial asset class and gain sync rights wealth. Largely a predictable pipe dream. And aggressive litigation clearinghouses use scans for works to threaten and bully high schools. The Ninth actually mocked them, dismissing a case, and saying that their "aggressive legal tactics... frighten .... into buying licenses." And the clearinghouse had to pay attorney fees. They don't care; they're lawyers.
These "warnings" offer no cost shields to theoretical "liability."
06:46 is this what you are referring to:

Try to stop me.
Enforcing this questionable rule will be about as easy as prohibiting HS students from holding hands in the stadium. Will there be video police?
Who cares it’s a damn band. Little wussies will be wussies
Government overreach. Try to stop me and I will see you in federal court. Cha-ching.
I had to stare at your "www" for a minute before I realized what it was. I haven't seen someone reference the world wide web in years.
As posted above and summarized here: This is just lawyers on all sides trying to suck the joy out of life. Purely mouth running and ass covering.
So, no footage of the band when they participate in parades too?
Good luck enforcing this. This intimidation has no teeth.
Why is MS leadership allowing this overreach?
Every URL typed into a browser references the "world wide web."

Will never hold up.
oh good grief people. READ 1:21 am's post again.
Jawohl, Herr Kommandant!
I am laughing. This is lame, and nobody cares about this Nerdfest. Now, if only Brandon High School would worry this much about basic achievement levels and graduation rates...
whatever bunch of karens cooked this idea up could only be from the third world country of rankin county.
1:21, you appear to have some perspective on this new policy. So, are you intimating that the school is preparing itself with some CYA if the licensor seeks damages?
Next, do you envision any enforcement of the policy?
To me, it’s an example of leftist policy in a location that loves to brag about its conservatism.

Try telling granma and grandpa they can’t record the grandkids in the band and share the little video…. 😂
Decorum? When's the last time you been a high school graduation?
This ain't California. Let's test it in the federal court system and get a ruling from the Supremes.
By this logic, if I own a venue with all the proper licenses and have a streaming service like Spotify playing and someone takes a video of their friend with the music laying in the background, and posts it I am liable. I guess every restaurant, bar, or venue nows should get in line and follow Brandon's lead.
They just don’t want the other schools knowing their moves before “battles” 😂.
Is it OK for me to film the lady (not this specific band) who is in charge of the cash-cigar-box who keeps up with band fund proceeds?
For those of you who were in doubt, this should convince you that schools, any and every school, is all about making controlling, stupid rules and if one doesn't every iota of insignificant stuff, somebody affiliated with the school will make one up. Schools are all about control. Period. Prove me wrong.
Sorry: For those of you who were in doubt, this should convince you that schools, any and every school, are all about making controlling, stupid rules and if an existing rule doesn't address every iota of insignificant stuff, somebody affiliated with the school will make one up.

Right, I want to see where they purchased the rights from the rights holder - then, and only then, will I even consider this any further!
On one of Kingfish's posts about the now convicted felon Lumumba, I posted a link to Sam Cook's "Chain Gang". Do I owe somebody a check for publishing that link?
This will stop it for sure.
PETTY
The comments here really make me worry about the mental state of some of you.
8:13, the school probably just purchases the copyrighted music. However, some of these commenters are right that these music licensing companies will come after you. It feels like extortion because they don't have to prove you played their music but in cases like this, it's easily proven if there's a video.
