The agreement of a band to allow taping of their concerts is not without conditions. The most important condition is that music may only be traded, never sold. This means that you may trade a show only for an equivalent amount of media. For example, three blank CD's may be traded for three recorded CD's of a concert. You should not participate in a trade that requires more media from either party. If someone asks for more blanks than they are providing back to you, this is a music sale and is not permitted. Please do not patronize anyone performing this practice. These are the generally accepted rules of the trading community.

What is a B&P?
B&P stands for Blanks and Postage.

How Does It Work?
You send off the required number of blank CD-R discs, along with a return mailer with sufficient postage. The trader takes your blank discs and records the concert onto those discs, and then mails them back to you. The trader receives nothing in return for this service. The person distributing the music only gets the satisfaction of spreading some incredible music and joy, and assisting someone else in sharing something they love.
