Here's a story reported in the UK Telegraph I thought I'd share. I mean to post this ages ago, but somehow I kept putting it off. At any rate, the unsigned UK band The Get Out Clause didn't have the dosh to put out a professional quality music video. So knowing that their are literally thousands of closed circuit surveillance cameras in the UK, they simply played their music out on the streets of Manchester and then requested the video footage under the Data Protection Act. Then they added some other handheld footage to round it out. Cheeky, but effective! The end result is pretty cool.

Good for "The Get Out Clause" and great way to stick it to the system...
Thanks for posting...
