21st Century Breakdown

A real pleasure to shoot Green Day tonight at the MEN Arena. One of those bands I never thought I'd get a chance to shoot, and I'm very happy with the results.

Remedy

Little Boots in Preston last night. Photos didn't come out as well as I thought they might have, given the available light.

Crystal

Further adventures in bad lighting this evening, but still a pleasure and a privilege to shoot a local legend. Here's Bernard Sumner fronting Bad Lieutenant at the Ritz.

Shot the Indigo Girls tonight at Manchester Academy. Worst. Lighting. Ever.

Two Suns

Shot Bat For Lashes last night, and felt they were 200% better than the shows I saw earlier in the year. Feels like the new band has really gelled.

So the marathon last week ended with Nerina Pallot - shot both her Friday and Saturday shows and had a brief shoot with her afterwards (and indeed one of my Dizzee Rascal shots appearing in Friday's Star).

You can see the shoot by clicking here

And here are a couple of my favourites from the shows.

License To Kill

Insanely last minute photo gig today - sent a speculative mail to my agency saying "haven't been able to sort this out, so I'll forget about it" and they sprung into action and sorted it.

So here's Gladys Knight (still has an amazing voice)

Should've Kept My Eyes Shut

For the record, Paolo Nutini does not appear to open his eyes on stage, I wasn't just being inept.
