Buzz Bakesale 09

It was a long 12 hour day of shooting. With the majority of the bands going on in daylight and without stage setups, it would be the action and emotion of the acts that would make great photos and not cool concert lights and effects. The crowd in attendance was really young and brought back my memories of when I was in high school and went to the radio shows of the day and let loose in the pit. It put me off a little bit though when I saw 15 year old girls smoking cigarettes.

My two favorite sets of the day had to be Metric and Cage The Elephant. They both made for great shots. Cage The Elephant's lead singer, Matt Shultz, was spastic and even jumped into the crowd for a bit.
