Lowlight: Friday night fans - great if you are drunk yourself but not so great if you have an expensive camera and trying to get through an exuberant crowd with drinks in hands.
Fill in: This was a gig for Redferns - nice and straight forward.
Tech Spec: The Forum is very hard for lighting, which I sometimes find this a bonus as the harder it is the more creative you have to be. Redferns as a music library like you to get all the members of the band, and the most challenging is the drummer. Almost always at the back and badly lit it can be a struggle. On the plus side, they have a good view and can usually spot you trying to get a shot of the them. Most are happy to look a the camera and if the light does get on them it is usually contact for exposure. Also the band's name is usually on the drum kit and that makes a nice reference.
