FIRE EXIT @ CC’s Callum Cavern, back Sneddon Paisley.
This gig was shot with and without a flash which meant having to use a really high ISO, more so since there wasn’t a front stage spot light. So this meant those at the front of stage where in shadow with their backs to the on stage lighting, resulting in high ISO noise.
Plus some photos where the flash never fired are dark and noisy, one or two are out off focus, though I messed around with them and added them anyway to this set.
All in all a great gig and place for bands to play where only photographers who like to shoot without a flash would like to see at least one spotlight. If anything the drummer was in the right spot with all the lights on him.
There’s one cool shot where the flash never fired and in the darkness you can see the drummer only because of the lights to his side.
Myself! I would place a rotating alternating colour gel spot light to one side of the stage that changes colour myself. It would lighten up the singers faces and add more light around the other musicians without the need of a huge lighting rig. If anything two spots on either side of the stage would be more than enough and much less cheaper.
Much more so than shelling out £1200 quid for a low F number lens to suck in some more light that’s for sure..
From a publican and punters point of view its perfect and an expense they needn’t have to endure to appease people taking photos with crazy low light demands ;)

DAY 49 – I took this on my way home. It was the way the light was catching the fire exit signs on the door that caught my eye. The red light was quite dark so I adjusted it in Photoshop.

Fire Exit @ Audio Glasgow January 28th 2018
Pretty “Damned” Good Cake…
Paisley punk band Fire Exit along with The Media whores, Red Eyes, Threat, Shock and Awe and Blacklist celebrated Lawrie Kennedy’s birthday at Audio Glasgow Pre Damned punk gig that went down a storm.
Though non of the legendary 70s punk band The Damned managed to make it along to the gig, as they themselves where playing at the O2. Audio’s was jumping and more so when Fire Exit took to the stage to finish off what was a fantastic show.
But instead of leaving only to return to the chats of we want more and their final encore. Fire Exit singer Gerry ushered onto the stage Lawrie’s two girls who entered stage right carrying a birthday cake to a massive round off applause from the audience.
You know what! not many in the business can say they blew out birthday candles as part of their encore to a cheering audience and finishing off what was a fantastic show, which other wise would have been a dull rainy Sunday afternoon in Glasgow..

Plus some photos where the flash never fired are dark and noisy, one or two are out off focus, though I messed around with them and added them anyway to this set.
All in all a great gig and place for bands to play where only photographers who like to shoot without a flash would like to see at least one spotlight. If anything the drummer was in the right spot with all the lights on him.
There’s one cool shot where the flash never fired and in the darkness you can see the drummer only because of the lights to his side.
Myself! I would place a rotating alternating colour gel spot light to one side of the stage that changes colour myself. It would lighten up the singers faces and add more light around the other musicians without the need of a huge lighting rig. If anything two spots on either side of the stage would be more than enough and much less cheaper.
Much more so than shelling out £1200 quid for a low F number lens to suck in some more light that’s for sure..
From a publican and punters point of view its perfect and an expense they needn’t have to endure to appease people taking photos with crazy low light demands ;)
