BR's Story

It was easy to get cameras in at first but as time went on and Rock became a bigger and bigger business it got harder. It got to the point that I had to sneak the camera in hanging over my shoulder in the back with no lens on the camera body. My girlfriend would have a lens in her purse. Somehow I always found a way to sneak down front and find an empty seat. If someone came I would jump to another vacant seat. Many times I would find a seat that no one came for. Then I would spend the whole show there. .We always picked out a place to meet after the show incase this happened. Charla spent many a concert sitting by herself, but she was cool and knew I was getting some great shots.
As time went on I got very good at sneaking in my camera and being in the right spot to sneak down front. I was lucky to see some great concerts and take some great photos.

The images were shot using a Nikon F-2 with a 105mm and 135mm lens. I shot Tri-x B&W film pushed to 1000 ASA using Acufine and Color High Speed Ektachrome pushed one stop. I opened the lens all the way put the camera on 125th sec. and just shot.
