Note that the complainer is a new Commons user whose entire activity
on the project is nominating this for deletion.  This should not be
taken as a common belief, although there have been repeated instances
of people advocating the position that non-copyright restrictions
should make an image unfree even if it is OK copyright-wise.

IMO, given the level of security at your average concert and the fact
that they generally will search people on the way in, if they let you
have a camera and take pictures, it's de facto OK with the organizers
and venue.
