i was at the front at RSAG a few weeks ago and it really gave me the shits when this huge douchebag barrelled through the crowd, pushing people out of the way to PERCH ON THE STAGE (whelans) taking shots like no one else was there. there was another very strange-faced guy* with a camera taking 'gig shots' the WHOLE time as well.
i would love if camera's were completely banned from venue's, all venue's ever ever ever. they have absolutely nothing to do with gigs or music. i would like it however if someone was employed to approximate the proceedings of the night in satirical cartoon or watercolor form. i love photo's as an art/document of things, but i would only consider it fair if everyone in attendance at photo exhibits was playing bass, and 90% of them doing it badly.
i was at a friends EP launch a couple of months ago in a recording studio, so basically the gig took place in a tiny spot; therefore imagine the irritation when three amateur photographers proceeded to actively knock over stands and push audience members out of the way to get a few shots... for the whole fucking gig!!
i was not a happy bunny
How do the musicians feel about having little bits of their soul being stolen every night dozens and dozens of times?
I'd say it'd have to grow back during the day or else they'd have none left and wouldn't be able to make music anymore.
I always ban photography at my gigs because I'm kind of old fashioned and believe that a camera will steal my soul.
i always though that this was the unwritten rule gig photographers anyway? guess everyone's a blogger and everyone's a photographer now and nobody knows shit
good thinkin timo
i've taken photos at a few gigs, and never used flash. i'd only bring a camera in at the invitation of the band now, though.
What did you think of that dude with the big camera taking pictures on Saturday? That guy was taking pictures non stop the entire time every single act was on. It was only a tiny room like, the flash got very irritating after the frist band then he just kept going and going and going..
