Bonafide – Essen, Turock – 17.12.2009

With Bonafide there is finally a Band, which delivers what the name predicts. Old School Hard Rock as the early Ac/Dc played it… well, if you name yourself Bonifide you better don’t play Free-Jazz. Overdriven riffs and a fist full of blues was in the air as the Band started playing. The audience seemed to enjoy it, even though I was more excited about the main act of the evening. I just need more distortion… because in distortion I trust.

Shooting Notes
Covering a gig inside the Turock in Essen is always a bit strange. As many other times before, the light was mostly coming from behind the artists with a little bit of frontlight on the singer at the middle of the stage. So shooting with an aperture of 2.8 and ISO 800 was necessary. Do to the fact, that there was quite a lot of movement on stage, I got my flash out to get some light in the faces and to get my shutter speed up to 1/160. Next to that the motto of the eve was shoot a lot to pick the best moments at the end, when the light was right.
