Marcus Haney decided he wasn’t going to worry about any of that and just [go to the concerts anyway](http://sploid.gizmodo.com/awesome-kid-snuck-into-50-music-festivals-to-make-this-1610635774/+caseychan "undefined"), doing whatever he could to get inside. Sometimes that meant hopping fences, other times it meant forging wrist bands and once in a while it meant posing as a photographer. Haney’s main piece of advice for pulling all this off? “Walk with confidence.” Not only did he end up going to all these fantastic shows — Coachella, Bonnaroo, etc. — but he even cut together all the footage from his various missions and made himself a film out of it, _No Cameras Allowed_. Not a bad gig, if you can get it. \[via [Sploid](http://sploid.gizmodo.com/awesome-kid-snuck-into-50-music-festivals-to-make-this-1610635774/+caseychan "undefined")\] ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3035506/music-festivals-no-cameras-allowed/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3035506/music-festivals-no-cameras-allowed/"},"headline":"One Kid Snuck Into 50 Music Festivals and Filmed the Whole Thing","datePublished":"2014-07-25T21:20:53.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-21T09:21:25.937Z","description":"It's not illegal if you get an awesome movie out of it, right?","url":"https://time.com/3035506/music-festivals-no-cameras-allowed/","keywords":["Crime","movies","Music","Music Festivals"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eric Dodds","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/eric-dodds/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3035506/music-festivals-no-cameras-allowed/","name":"One Kid Snuck Into 50 Music Festivals and Filmed the Whole Thing"}}]}] ```
