ATTN: promoters, gig goers, photographers...SERIOUS ISSUE with photography. (2 Viewers)

And I'd argue the opposite. Couldn't be arsed. I have beef with the photographers and with the technology to the extent that people seemed to go out and spend money on a DSLR and then all of a sudden they think they're Mick Rock. I don't think the quality has improved , just the quantity.

I wanted to slap the head off that cunt last night. At one point, he just dived through a load of us. We all just looked at each other in disbelief. I want a name!

did he fart or something?

I'd be genuinely shocked too if there was flatulence so bad it could be seen.

I don't think thats the fat bloke I was thinking of.

The bloke I was thinking of is just some bloke who bought a camera, thinks he can do whatever the hell he likes at gigs, and is a pain in the hole.

The prick almost single-handedly ruined Cass McCombs in early December. Prick.

i've deleted those posts because this is something venues / promoters / bands need to address, not random vigilantes on interweb message boards

Turns out I'm not allowed to name and shame the photographers involved. Pity.

yes, i would agree with this. the idea here is not to start a lynch mob.

as far as i know, the matter has been brought up with the promoters and is being taken seriously.

thanks for the support.

easier to make fun of if he is.

What I heard was the photographer was taking photos (start of the gig) and a drunk girl started pushing her way between his two friends, elbow in the neck kinda thing. She threw a drink at one of the grrls, she threw one back. Drunk girls punched one of them twice and got a slap back. Photographer and friends were thrown out and and the bouncer said it was because he hit a girl. He showed the photos he'd taken when he was supposed to have done it and they were all dated about 5 seconds apart so clearly he was doing something else when it happened.
There's always two sides.

the issue isnt really with the fight itself that took place. that was completely insane but indirectly involved with the photographer.


pete, i might even suggest locking this as promoters are on the case.

i think the point has been made.


thanks.

Its not the guy I'm thinking of. The guy I'm thinking of has no friends.

 

[shootfromthehip]

I understand that, just wanted to clear up the fact that he didn't hit anyone.

yeah i dont think that was implied anywhere. he did not hit anyone.

lock?

Photographers make me not want to take photos at gigs any more. The last gig i tried to shoot there were six other photographers. Insane. Gig before that two girls stood on the stage together taking pics. Really invasive. Peopel really need to learn some etiquette.

the promoters are showing a great interest in sorting this matter out.
