Morning all,
It all went good yesterday, MASSIVE thanks to Drew87 for kindly coming filming the event, you are a star!!
Thanks OmarLittle for offering your help too, shame there were no camera you could have used!
I left my little camera on the tripod during the whole concert almost, of course Drew's material will be better quality I imagine, but the G9 did a decent job I think, they might be able to use a bit of it...
Thanks again for the help received / advises, etc, all in such short time, LFGSS rules!

Hey dude! What with the weekend adventures I've got planned I might have to skip this. Usually I jump at the chance for some concert photography, but I'm afraid this one won't work out.
I don't have anything fancy, but if you wanted to borrow my 450D with 50mm f1.8 you could. It would do for some okay portraits in low light...Thanks, but I am going there straight from work so won't go your way before...

Hey, you should have at least two camera's to shoot it.. you need one locked off that records everthing, then one free that can roam about and get more intresting shots, its a nightmare with one camera... are they DJ'S or a band
Good point...
Well, I will be shooting as well, I mean only doing my best which might not be great... My girlfriend has a little camcorder, she will give it a go too, maybe...
It's a band.

hopefully it'll change with a firmware update at some point
one important question I forgot, will there be somewhere secure for my bike? I don't know the area too wellI'm afraid I don't know, I've never been there before... If it's like the previous concerts in London,there is usually space backstage where bands leave their equipments during the sets. But I don't know if it will be the case, and don't want to promise anything. I am going on my Brompton so I should be fine myself. I will bring a lock anyway, but if you don't feel it, I don't want you to take any risk as you are coming to help...

I'm free, only have my nikon d5000 to shoot on, but I did get a new wide apature lens a couple of days ok so it wouldn't be too bad
what sort of time?Isn't the d5000 HD? Not that I really know what that means ultimately, but that sounds like our best option so far!
The "french revolution" evening starts at 7.00pm, but my friend expect to play in second or third, which he reckons should be between 8.30pm and 9.45pm. I will arrive there between 7.30 and 8.00pm.
Let me know if that sounds OK for you...
Ah, other thing, I brought a tripod with me today, not a tiny one, but not a massive one either, strong enough to hold my G9, but I don't know about your Nikon...
Thanks a lot!

you need good sound.
so the recording from the desk (if there is one) needs to sync with the visuals.
just sayin.Trudat... I think he intends to get a "proper" recording from the sound engineer. Then, along with that if he can get a nice film, I think he has friends back in france who would be able to make both work together...

Hi all,
Sorry for such late notice...
My friend Tony and his band are playing tonight here:

They are coming from France for this (it's not their first time in London). They sound like this (Hope you like!!)
YouTube - TV GLORY Havoc Arise official tvglory
*But it will be the first concert for the NEW FORMATION of the band* (they used to be 4 they are now 2) and so far they have no video or even any visual material.
I will take pictures myself, and even try to film a bit however my camera is not really suitable for filming (Canon G9).
As I know the forum is full of talented and generous people, I am asking if someone who knows about filming properly, who has a real camcorder to do so and who would be available to come tonight to do a bit of shouting, would be kind enough to help with this... As what they are paid for this gig hardly covers their cost (petrol + boat + etc...) there is nothing for you in it but free beer (on me) and the satisfaction of helping promising artists!!
Please let me know!!!
Now, of course, any talented and available people are also welcome to come and enjoy the concert without doing nothing!!
Thanks in advance!!

All right, time for the full story now... There is a happy ending don't worry!
So, last year, I cycle to work, the Holdsworth frame breaks. Wrapped in toe straps and scarf, the brave steel soldier from the 50s still takes me to the office, from Cmberwell to Putney (and back in the evening)

Couple of month later, thanks to Mario Vaz, the frame is repaired, with a free temporary layer of black lacquer over the repair...

Then I did not rebuild the bike, not enough space at home...
But there is no way I would keep it like this, the Holdsworth has to go back to the road somehow... I decide to take it to France at my parents as a holiday bike, fixie skidder thingy is so cool over there I hear!I take the train to Portsmouth:

Then the boat...

Here he is!!! Enjoying a well desserved semi retirement in France!!

I had the stickers cut by Porter on here, but I scaled them quite big: Coppithat, who saw the bike before its big departure thought it was a happy mistake and that is looked good, I now agree with him... As I did not do a new paint job, the gold head tube is just a sticker from the same material as the letters wrapped around... The rest of the bike is bits and bobs I had, and I only need to put bigger tyres to fill the bluemells mudgards better next time I go!
