It's been a couple of years since I've photographed Motion City Soundtrack, so I have to admit that I'd forgotten just how fun these guys are to shoot when I caught them at The Bamboozle.
Photographer's Notes:
Motion City Soundtrack put on a fantastic show at The Bamboozle, and it was a high-energy show all around, from frontman Justin Pierre to Jesse Johnson on Moog and synth to Tony Thaxton on drums. Pierre in particular has such an expressive face that it's really easy to get sucked into photographing just him and his constant mugging.
I shot this set almost exclusively with the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 on the D3, a combo that generally dominated ‘Boozle for the flexibility and nearly perfect field of view for the main stages.
