Nice set, interesting lighting.

[blackshadow]

Thanks Rene - yes the lighting was interesting. Also, security had us up close to the stage so they could cope with the bodies coming over the barriers, so didn't have as much room as I would have liked to get some better angles. Security moved the 'togs out half way through the second song (was supposed to be a three song rule) because there were so many bodies coming over into the pit.

Great Shots. I especially like the second last one of Tom Morello with his famous Blue Strat style guitar. Good Work dude!

Nice series of shots. Particularly like that first one...... very moody.

Second last shot of Morello (#4) he is playing a Telecaster :p

Was just about to say that! :p Definitely not a Strat, at least :lol:

Great set, Richard. As with your others from the BDO. Really great work :)

[roman_t]

i like first three shots. third is my fav! good work again

[thelightofsound]

i like the first one the best. looks like tough conditions. i hate it when security clears photogs from the pit early.

Is there not 6 pictures of RATM there? Surely the second last one would be #5, where he is playing his homemade Strat style thingy?:confused:
Anyway its a great shot, they're all great, but thats my fav!

[2jackedLUNGS]

great shots of a great band. one of my 2 favorite all time. the second shot of tom is sweet. you can see the detail on his guitar.

[blackshadow]

Thanks

[Kanye East]

Tom Morello is the man

[Grom]

I missed Audioslave!!:(

[britt49]

i especially like the 1st and 3rd

[narlus]

3 and 4 are my fave, though all seem to suffer 'up the nose' a bit...tall stage?

[blackshadow]

Thanks guys.

3 and 4 are my fave, though all seem to suffer 'up the nose' a bit...tall stage?

Probably 12 feet tall and also being jammed up close to the stage by security due to the number of people coming over the barrier. We were meant to have three songs but were booted after one because of the crowd going nuts.
