You could do it that way, but my strong preference is not to; I feel that
the authorization concerns should be layered on top of the domain model,
not something that the domain objects such as Concert know anything about.

You can use domain event subscribers on the actions of your domain objects
to veto or respond to interactions within your domain, see [1]

No, you should just be able to manage this using the
roles/permissions/features of the security module [2].  Again, while you
*could* do this using the hideXxx methods (eg using the UserService to
obtain the identity of the current user), I don't think you should embed
this security knowledge in your core domain.
