C&C: Dave Matthews Band Concert

[fool]

I had the opportunity to shoot two Dave Matthews Band concerts. Got some pics and want to see what you think of them. Comments and critiques welcome and appreciated.

Electric violinist, wears sunglasses apparently because of stage fright. Least that's how/why he started wearing sunglasses.

Sweet lighting setup

Dave Matthews is a interesting (weird?) dude in concert. He's always got this sly look on his face. Though before the concert I was only "somewhat" of a fan, it was a pretty damn good concert. It was also interesting to shoot because I'm used to sports and landscapes, wear the lighting is relatively stable. At this concert, and I'm sure basically any concert, the lighting can change quite dramatically at anytime, so it was interesting to work with.

Seriously - the talent is pounding the skins. BTW - the "Electric Violinist" with stagefright is Boyd Tinsley. He is a very cool cat.

I got a few of Carter, but through all the damn symbols and drums, they were only okay. However, he did look like he was having the time of his life, smiling constantly. Oh, and to clarify apparently:

but 1 correction. Leroi Moore wears the sunglasses due to stage fright...boyd is far from being afraid of the spotlight.
