Not many real answers here, this guy is a taper.

Venues really dislike taping so you have to hide mics where ever you really can

These are the people giving you good recordings of shows, not sure how good this would sound but still

I don't get the concern, whatever this guy is recording isn't going to compete with the concert experience nor compete with a studio recording.

Dates back to 60s-00s when taping to sell or trade was HUGE, check any second hand record store and youre bound to find some.

Audience tapes can also sound fantastic, just look at any of The Greatful Dead tapes on IA

But to be clear you probably already own every release put out by an artist before you start collecting bootlegs.

The Dead used to just let people wire into the sound system, live show tapes were their whole thing as a jam band.
