This is not totally true, many arenas have a general "no cameras" rule for all concerts. Of course, I'm sure no band is thrilled with people taking their photos, esp. if the photog. is going to try to make $ off their image...
Anyway, I have gotten my camera in to every show I attended on this tour by stashing it at the bottom of a medium-size purse. Security always does a bag check, but it's not at all thorough, they just poke around a bit. I really think they're looking more for drugs, alcohol, or weapons than cameras.
Just put a bunch of crap on top of it (makeup, hairbrush, wallet, etc.) Pads are good too since most security won't touch 'em, esp. males
