Oh wow, oh yes….one of the best live bands on the planet and I got to photograph them – Dillinger Escape Plan. They absolutely stormed the Academy 2 stage in a blaze of swinging guitars and strobes. It was tough, but fun to shoot and was gig where I slightly changed my shooting style – normally I try to think about each shot and not just fire off thousands, but for this show I just kept pressing, because the lighting was so unpredictable. It was worth it though, as I came away with lots of keepers, as you can see if you scroll down for this mega blog post!
Bruuuuuuuuuuutal!

I was covering this show for The Daily Dust and you can find out more about Dillinger here.
I’ve also already posted pics of the two support bands on the blog; Rolo Tomassi pics are here and pics of The Ocean are here.
