Caspian: A Study In Anonymity
The lighting set up inside The Triple (a bar) consisted of three overhead lights dimmed to about 50% brightness – giving off about as much light as the lamp on the table next to my couch. So I set my ISO at 1200 and did what I could. I’m really impressed at some of the shots I was able to pull off, even with shooting at 1/4 or 1/6 of a second for some. The three lights mostly lit up the drum kit, leaving the three guitarists and one bassist of Caspian, dimly backlit with dark faces. I enjoy the way the shots came out under the circumstances. Though the amount of grain in these shots is pretty aggravating.
Oh, and listen to Caspian. Seriously. They’re mind altering.

[...] Caspian were up second. I can’t decide if this band wants to be photographed or not. The entire stage was lit only by two 6″ clamp lights fitted with red bulbs and one 6″ clamp light with a yellow bulb (positioned over the drum kit). It was a tedious affair to get good shots. Even worse than when I saw them a couple months ago. [...]
