Terms for posting songs, and how rights holders ask us to take songs down.
Posting songs
A concert's songs come either from the band's own album page (Bandcamp or Subvert) or from links to audio files that the poster gives us. We don't copy or store these files: listeners' browsers play them from where they are hosted.
When you post links to audio files, you confirm that:
- you own the recordings, or the rights holder has allowed you to share them this way; and
- you, not Concerts Nearby, are responsible for that.
If a rights holder asks us to, we take the songs down. The concert stays listed without them, and the same links can't be posted again. If songs you posted are taken down three times, you can no longer post audio links; album links still work.
For rights holders
If songs playing here are yours and weren't shared with your permission, open the concert on the map (its label button in the venue's list) and use Ask us to take these songs down. You don't need an account. Tell us who you are, which recordings are yours and how, and confirm that you hold the rights or act for the rights holder.
We answer by email, usually within a few days. If we remove the songs, they stop playing on every concert that uses them. You can also write to giffyworks@gmail.com.
Songs played from a band's own Bandcamp or Subvert page are published there by the band; ask those sites, or the band, about them.
