It is indeed, pitch black very little light and lots if smoke, a very challenging shoot.

It's hard to find anything at all to criticise in these. Well done.

Non stage angles???

Yeah all the things that go on at gigs and festivals aside from what is happening on stage. Sound and lighting people, trucking guys, security burger, beer, merchandise stalls, etc, etc, etc

I do appreciate your primary role is to capture the performers though so I guess you can't just wander around too much.
