The Get Out Clause, Manchester’s stars of CCTV cameras - Telegraph

The Get Out Clause, an unsigned band from the city, decided to make use of the cameras seen all over British streets.

With an estimated 13 million CCTV cameras in Britain, suitable locations were not hard to come by.

They set up their equipment, drum kit and all, in eighty locations around Manchester - including on a bus - and proceeded to play to the cameras.

This is a great way to externalize the cost of production.

    Interesting… maybe I’ll call it a “stunt” then. Still, it’s a great hook, because CCTV is a major issue and this plays well off it.
