Contributors Welcomed – Submission Guidelines<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n[stextbox id=”custom” caption=”Click on the plus to read the Guidelines”]It takes a lot of work to keep the tour listings current, monitor the web for Craig-related news stories and interviews, and to find all of the little tidbits of information we publish, so we welcome your help to find news items and make our posts the best they can be.\u00a0 Several RSA members regularly post links to new information on their Twitter streams and we are also interested in your thoughts about Craig, his projects and more.\r\n\r\n[stb id=”custom”]Our guidelines are pretty simple:\u00a0 Want to write a post for us?\u00a0 Great!\u00a0 Have memories of a seeing Craig live, getting an autograph or meeting him?\u00a0 Fantastic!\u00a0 We can post your story here or link to your fan page, blog post, animated gif, wallpaper or nearly any other Craig-related thing you’d like to share.\u00a0 Please note, we cannot post or link to video taken at Craig’s live performances, or any still photos or video taken inside television studios for legal reasons.\u00a0 Otherwise, the door is open… please share your stuff with us!\u00a0 Just tweet us your links or send more detailed information using our Contact Us<\/a> form.[\/stb]\r\n\r\nPlease note that the names “Robot Skeleton Army News”, “RSA News”, “RSANews”, “RSA_News” and our logos, including the skull, its backgrounds and stylized versions of our names are protected by copyright and may not be used without written permission.

Audio\/Video\/Photograph Guidelines for Studio and Live Performances<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\r\n[stextbox id=”custom” caption=”Click on the plus to read the Guidelines”]While these guidelines are not official and have not been approved by Craig or his management, they do cover the essentials as we understand them and we strongly recommend that they be followed by fans:

\r\n\r\nNo Audio\/Video Recording at Live Shows<\/strong>\r\nRecording audio and\/or video of Craig’s live stand up comedy performances, radio or television shows or films is a violation of federal copyright law. Even if the person recording or distributing such audio or video material does not profit directly from making the material available to the public (online, for example) it can cut directly into revenue from ticket sales, future broadcasts, DVD sales and more. In other words, if you record and\/or distribute Craig’s shows, you are taking money out of his pocket. If found in violation of copyright law, the person who recorded and\/or distributed the material could face triple the actual damages caused, attorney’s fees and court costs, as well as criminal penalties up to a quarter million dollars in fines and five years in prison. We cannot be more clear about this: Do not record Craig’s shows!

\r\n\r\nNo Audio\/Video Recording or Still Photographs at Television Shows<\/strong>\r\nAudio\/video recording and still photography are prohibited during tapings of any of the radio\/television shows on which Craig appears. The producers strictly enforce this policy because it violates copyright law and could impact their ability to profit from the broadcast of the show. If you are found violating this policy, you could face ejection from the studio, confiscation of your recording device(s) and legal action.

\r\n\r\nWhat about still photographs at live shows? Maybe.<\/strong>\r\nSometimes still photos have been allowed during live shows (depending on the venue), although for the most recent tour, no photos have been allowed. Some venues where Craig has performed don’t allow photography for any show at all, while some allow it with the performer’s permission, provided no flashes are used. The bottom line: For now, no photos. If this changes, we’ll let you know.

\r\n\r\nIf you have any questions, please let us know using our Contact Us<\/a> form or via Twitter @RSA_News<\/a>.
