Wireless Festival 2010

So.

Last weekend I shot Hard Rock Calling. I really enjoyed it. All of it. The music, the atmosphere, even the weather.

Maybe I was just pushing my luck hoping for a similar experience at Wireless.

It seems I was!

The music wasn't particularly to my taste most of the time, the atmosphere didn't seem right the further into the weekend it got and whoevers idea it is to have over 50,000 people in there should take a long hard look at themselves.

Ok so I guess I just feel like this because I shot predominantly on the 3rd stage (which was quite near the main entrance) whilst being based in the press area (somewhere behind the main stage). On Friday it was a good 5 minute walk. That's fine, it's not that long I know but when you have editing piling up every second counts. Plus it's hot and i'm carry cameras with lenses and battery packs. But anyway, I digress.

Sunday.

That 5 minute walk I was lucky to do in 10 minutes...again not a long time, but when you finish shooting a band and have half an hour until the next one starts that's 10 minutes to upload everything you've shot and start sorting (10 mins back to press area then the trip back to the stage ;p).

I'm gonna leave it there and just say it was a long weekend which was a good experience for me!

Now you can look at my photos, please, if you've got this far, which only I have, and i've stopped writing about 4 times, wow look at the amount of, err, commas i've used in this little bit, it's quite a lot.

It's like The Shining. Sort of.

Digression over.

Facebook - Website - Flickr - I can write whatever I want and link it to anything, like Twitter, and as long as I hyperlink it, it'll work :)

Thanks.

Hard Rock Calling 2010

I headed down to Hyde Park at the weekend to shoot Hard Rock Calling for Live Nation. It was an absolute privilege and such good experience.

I'm not going to bore you with details but I will say there are a few more on Flickr and loads more on Facebook. You can also look at mine plus loads from some brilliant photographers on the Hard Rock Calling 2010 website.

I will just say that I fully enjoyed it and can't tell you how much i'm looking forward to Wireless festival this weekend!

Lissie

Last night I was lucky enough to shoot Lissie. Now I don't know much about music but I wouldn't be surprised to see big things happen for her. Unfortunately for her (as a support act) there were only a few people in the audience.

Check out the rest of the shots on Facebook, Flickr or my website and don't forget to follow me on Twitter. Cheers.

Teenage Fanclub & Veronica Falls

I'm really starting to slack with this but I think that's because I have given myself so many things to update (don't worry, i'll remind you of them all at the end of this post).

So anyway Tuesday night I went to shoot Teenage Fanclub and as I was there early I thought I may as well shoot their support band Veronica Falls! It's the first time i've done a support band as well, I usually only just make it for the main band, but i'm hoping this habit will continue as you never know where things will lead.

That's about all I have to say for now but before I go i'll link you up with all my other exciting pages (as promised) which are spread delightfully over various parts of this internet thing.

Twitter - Facebook - Website - Flickr

Enjoy!

Twitter

I have decided that in order to make myself more accessible as a photographer (and person, in general) I should get myself on Twitter.

Not got a lot more to say other than I would be honoured if you decide to follow me. You can then give me feedback on my work, ask any questions which you just have to get the answer to or you could vaguely keep track of what i'm doing without paying too much attention (although that's my least preferred option!).

I haven't yet worked out if I can link people straight to my Twitter account but it's @adamrbrownphoto

I'm gonna guess that http://www.twitter.com/adamrbrownphoto is the link but if that doesn't work I apologise unreservedly!

Check back soon as i'm hoping the work is going to pick up over the next couple of weeks!

Cheers.

Metric

It's been so long but I still don't really have anything to say so i'll just post a couple of shots from last night and leave it at that!

As is often the case there are more to be seen if you so wish...in which case you should go to my Facebook page (which you and your friends, hint hint, can 'Like'), my flickr or my website.

Thanks for looking. Hopefully won't be another month before I post again! Adios!

The King Blues

Just a couple of shots from Tuesday nights The King Blues gig. I've never really been a fan of theirs but it seems like i'm quite partial to a bit of acoustic-ska.


The are a few more shots on facebook, my website and flickr as usual so go ahead and check them out.

I was interviewed last week for website MyMetropole. Check it out. You know. If you want to.
