DZ in 3D

DZ played a fundraiser show at The Zoo last night for their upcoming trip to New York (I'm going with them for a part of it, which I'm pretty excited about) It was a great show but once again I'm not very happy with the photos. DZ are always a pretty difficult band to shoot because they use strobes and other crazy lights a lot which are awesome if you're just watching but a bit more of a challenge to take photos of (they had 3D lights set up last night so I attempted to take a few photos through the glasses. They actually turned out better than I had hoped) crowds at their shows are always fairly nuts as well I was knocked over a couple of times last night but I don't mind that as long as my camera is ok haha. Anyway ... here are a few photos.

Light Painting

Not a great deal to say about these photos. Just playing around with pretty lights and long exposures I guess.

Comic Sans Final Show

So last night Comic Sans played at the Clubhouse, it was their last ever show which is a bit sad but it was certainly entertaining to say the least. I was initially going to try and shoot from the front but I'm pretty happy I didn't, I'm not sure I would have made it out alive. Anyway... here are a few of the photos.

Eels

I was really excited about shooting Eels last night. Sadly it was not a great show to photograph. The night started with a very quirky ventriloquist he was actually really good but I guess not what the crowd was expecting. Next was Laura Imbruglia, she was good I guess but nothing very exciting. I had a feeling Eels were not going to be great to photograph when I noticed all of the signs around the venue asking the general public not to take photos and unfortunately that was definitely the case. E Walked out wearing a bandana and sunglasses and played the first three songs pretty much by himself under one or two blue lights that didn't change for the duration. As soon as three songs were up and the photographers were out it was pretty lights and full band. Oh well. I'm really not very happy with the photos. Lucky it was such a great show. I wasn't feeling too well so told myself I wouldn't stay for the whole thing but it sucked me in and I didn't end up leaving till it was over.
