Hey everyone

I’m shooting a pretty big gig coming up this week. I have done a bit of concert photography for some smaller bands but will be shooting a massive venue with Bloc Party & Interpol headlining.

Just wanted to ask if anyone had any tips I should keep in mind while shooting.

This will also be the first gig where the ‘3 song’ rule will be applied so I’m stressed about getting all that I need within that timeframe.

Any particular shots I should try and get? Also, is it worth trying to see if I can get on stage to shoot from behind?

This is the rules that were sent to me:

“Please note that the photo restrictions are the first three from the pit only and nothing from front of house/crowd after the first three.”

Does this mean it will only be first three and then everything else is just from the crowd?
