I agree that selling anything for personal gain is wrong too - if those live performances belong to anyone they belong to the band. But fans sharing live footage of the band that is not for sale is not illegal.
And if you are so concerned about bootlegging I suggest that you contact e-bay - they allow sellers to list just about anything. They will pull a bootleg if someone complains but that's about it.
You could spend your time far more profitably by policing e-bay than by harrassing all of us that enjoy what this band does (or at least some of what this band does).
And finally - many of us here defend Seb because he has been around here for a long time and he has made many contributions to this community. What have you contributed except to stir up shit?

I really dont see the difference between Seb and Born to Run... both dislike the present Bon Jovi music, both have slagged the band to the hills , ... only difference is Seb has been doing this for many years. Look at Goose's posts recently putting LH/Backstage down in an extreme manner... some people are airing negative views about LH. It was the same when LTFR came out. I like LH , but still think others should be allowed the right to express their own viewpoint.
If Born to Run wants to make a comment about bootlegs then thats his right, plenty of people have commented about how they dislike bootlegs.
If people dont like it then they should ignore it. This is how it has always been dealt with, why should it change now. If mods think Born to run has another negative agenda then this should be dealt in another way , not in a poll. How would the mods like it if someone did a poll about them ... oh wait that has already happened and been closed, so why should this one be allowed.
If JTers have a problem with a board user they should pm the mods and not be allowed to use a poll or to discuss the persons behaviour in a post, as this can be viewed as a personal attack , which is not permitted.
