I am multi-tasking, actually, simultaneously processing shots from Lollapalooza and also writing a sentence or two for the Slipknot write-up. What can I say, I'm a slacker. ;) I'm determined to finish processing all the shots from Lolla tonight, though, so you can expect write-ups to start rolling in from those performances late this week or early next week!

C'mon Todd, god forbid you take a week or so to post shots! You only spent 3 days in Chicago spending your hours photographing bands, and you only have another job you need to work -- they shoulda been up right away! Haha :P What?!

Yes, there was a lot blue during this set, which worked nicely with the background smoke. Just posted a few more to Flickr and I'm sure I'll make public a few more over the next week. Now I just have to get to the shots from Lolla... Hey Tasha, thanks! Yes, there was a lot blue during this set, which worked nicely with the background smoke.

I didn't do too much post work on these. I don't really have time to make many corrections and try to nail exposures at the time of shooting. I do convert all my images from RAW and will tweak the exposure if necessary, however. Hey Keath, thanks! I didn’t do too much post work on these.

Did you have to do much work afterwards to brighten images, etc or is this pretty much how they came out when shooting? Good job in what looks like less than ideal light conditions!

I've given up on trying to baby my lenses, I figure I will have to clean the 14-24mm eventually. The front element of that lens is starting to look like a Jackson Pollack painting. Regarding the tech stuff, I shot the entire set, so the exposures were quite varied. What I can say is that light was not a problem for this set, especially for Draiman. I was able to stop down and keep very comfortable shutter speeds, all at ISO 1600. Hey Celso, thanks for the feedback.
