The more extreme the music at the events, the more fun are the people. Nothing else was happening this weekend at the Death Feast Open Air in Hünxe. While most of the Bands kept the badguy image on stage, there were a couple of exceptions. First there were Rompeprop the evening before, this day the guys of Waco Jesus kept up the banner of happiness. Not to be mistaken, the Band played an intense Grindcore set, but that with an smile on their faces.

Shooting Notes
It was still really bright outside and not that late during the day, so I was able to shoot at ISO 400 at 1/500 of a second wide open at f2.8. A shutter speed of 1/500 was necessary to get a sharp frame of singer Shane Bottens who wasn’t standing still a minute, while the others in the Band weren’t moving that much. I was shooting this set with my 24-70 most of the time, getting the 70-200 out during the end of set for some close ups. I wasn’t able to use the EF 10-22, because the Band kept away from the edge of the stage and always a bit back of the wedges.
