For anyone who was there on Friday night, does Simon know how to introduce a band (and himself) or what? |

Thanks Bryan. I, like the band, REALLY wished they had let them play after sunset. I'm happy with my photos and compositions, but they had an awesome light show after dark that just doesn't come through in these. |

Thanks for posting all of these. The show was amazing. Full of energy and the band was much happier on the 31st show. Nick found out about his father passing away, we heard, not long before the May 30th show began. The show was still great. DD are great musicians that stand the test of time! |

Hi Yara, thanks very much for your comments - a death in the family would certainly cast a shadow over the band. That goes a long way toward explaining the mood at the beginning of the set. |

I thought it was kind of cool to have the sun setting as the music was playing! It's def something i've never experienced before! I'm sure it was odd for them to be playing in the daylight, unfortunately there's that Central Park curfew to think of! GREAT show, and very nice photos! |

Arup - Yeah, it was really kind of amazing to hear the huge catalog of iconic singles the band has had over the years. Amazing. Marco - Thanks! What band should I shoot next? |

Thanks Rocio! |
This was an interesting shoot. The band was either displeased with the daylight start time, late arriving crowd or both. They brought the rock after the sun went down and the crowd filled, but there was something less-than-excited about their first few songs.
