After seeing Bloodbath in Wacken a couple of years ago, I was waiting for another chance to see the band again. If there is any Death Metal Band out there, that released one killer album after the next it is Bloodbath, not to mention their live qualities (even though you don’t really get the chance very often). Unfortunately the Sound wasn’t the best this evening and so a lot of the tightness and energy got lost. The tried to fix the problem during the show and it got a bit better, but still there was something missing. Nonetheless the crowd really enjoyed the show and within minutes the first moshpits formed

Shooting Notes
It wasn’t really dark yet, but not to bright also. I had to open up my lens to f2.8 and shoot on ISO 640 to compensate for the missing light and still be able to shoot at 1/400 of a second. I was using the 24-70 and the 70-200 during the gig. I was not able to use the 10-22 because the pit was to crowded and the Band stayed a bit back from the edge of the stage.
