Flametrick Subs

at the Art Car Ball 2006

I'd heard of Flametrick for awhile now but never had the chance to see them. All I can say is DAMN what a band. I've been drawn more and more into Rockabilly and Psychobilly the last few years and it's bands like this that are why. From the photo standpoint I should have hated shooting these guys.. Not only did they have red lights... they brought along extra reds lights just in case the stage didn't look like enough hell already. I decided to shoot dual RAW and Black and White with a red filter. Most of what I got is indicative of that filter in place. There wasn't a lot of bright light but I got some cool shots anyway. img 1919 and 1918 in particular looked good in full resolution. So much so I'm putting in my list of photos I need to have developed and maybe framed. I know Flametrick was going for the "red" feel to their show but to me the stark B/W really looks damned cool. Even if I never actually get to shoot these guys again I'll be happy with what I got this night. Who knows maybe next time I'll just be able to sit and enjoy the show.. yeah like I can just sit for a show anymore.
