Best gig pics you've taken (DON'T QUOTE PICS!)

blastman · 2011-08-06 20:24:26

I've seen other forums here have a pics thread, so I though why not one in Rock & Metal. One pic per post, share your best pics or the ones you were most proud of with the rest of us. I'll start with a pic of The Coop in Dublin a couple of months ago: Now show us yours!

You need to upload it somewhere like flickr or photobucket and then link to it to display it in the thread.

Don't tend to take photos at concerts. This one is from AC/DC in Punchestown. Quality isn't great as its a phone camera.

My apologies.

This is Dweezil Zappa Plays Zappa. They recently started mixing in some of Dweezil's favourite songs that he grew up listening to. They mixed in Eruption and Someone Get Me a Doctor as well as Boodledang from Z's Music for Pets album in the mid 90s.

I can vouch for that, from a photography viewpoint, the lights were atrocious (not unusually for the Academy, it has to be said).

Yeah it's pretty much Ministry all over again so fist song red , second blue, third green and white for the solo's. Might have a chat with the lighting tech before they go on.

I like it as a venue, just the lighting can be...weird. I'm not one for filming gigs, but I try to get a couple of snaps per gig for posterity. The Academy is always the hardest of the main venues to get decent pics at because most of the lights are behind the band on stage and there is minimal light from the front. Maybe I'm wrong and Lisa or one of the more experienced photoogs knows better, but that's how it seems to me anyway.

As a venue though, the fact that you can lean on the railing at the sound desk and be that close to the stage means it's not all bad.

Well that was tough! ridiculously so but that's the same for every indoor Slayer show. It was still an awesome night and the guys signed my stuff and Tom gave me his plec so I'm chuffed with that. But yeah tough tough shoot, I caught a fairly nasty headbutt too but kept shooting, well worth it.
