So I'll be the first to admit it, I had NO clue who the Temptations were until last night. I didn't know what music they played, had never heard of the band before. I was pleasantly surprised, they put on a really good show.

C&C is of course encouraged. :)

You must be around 11 or 12 years old lol
You never heard of the Temptations?
Man they've been round since the early 60's.
Even though there is only one original member still living, they still make good music.
Wow and you didn't even post a shot of him.
But these are some nice shots! Good work.

Haha, I'm 16. I didn't realize they were that big, they drew out quite the crowd. I thought the guy in the pinstriped suit was the original, must have misunderstood. Thank you!

I was just re-reading your comment. If you don't see him in these pictures then he must not have been performing. The one of them as a group is the other four members, the only other person that was singing there was the guy in the pinstriped suit.

Oh ok the guy that's missing is named Otis Williams and he's older than these guys.
Just a lil note for ya, there are now 2 sets of Temptations running around here now.
Otis Williams (the original Temp) has a group.
And Dennis Edwards ( a replacement Temp has a group also).
They were a 5 man group.
If you listen to the music and watch the movie(The Temptations) I bet you'd love this group as much as everyone else!
Keep up the good work!

Great shots Dwight! It looks like you shot the 1st set of Temptations. Pretty good group! My lighting sucked, haha. The 'main' singer was in a very bright white light while the rest of the group were in a very dim red -_- light. This was my first "event" ever shooting in RAW. I was so surprised because of the demanding situation just how much better the RAW files could be edited vs. the few JPEG files I shot.
