Vintage 70's Band

Went to a show the other night and tried to snap a few pics and boost up the iso and noise for more of a throwback feel. PP in lightroom. Was thinking of adding blown out/polaroid borders as well. C&C please.

Enjoy

Band is "The Deadnotes"

I'm sure you'd get more response in the Entertainment forum.

Yeah, i figured that, but was more trying a experiment to see the vintage, 70's look. Thought this forum would help in tackling different aspects of the "vintage" look.

Okay, here's a few thoughts from an avid amateur;

I would be more inclined to go for either black & white or muted original colours instead of sepia (to me sepia is more 20's -30's than 70's).

Add in some artifacts, like tears, creases and dog ears. I like the polaroid idea, too.

Good luck!

I really like the first and last pics but agree with Henny, B&W might better capture what you are trying to convey, IMO.

Been playing around with them some more, and going more B&W. Ill post a few later on when i have some time. Thanks for the comments.
