Last time I saw Hooverphonic was in 2003 or 2004, I can’t really remember. I was hooked by the band right then and there. They’ve made their way since then with some changes along their path. Hooverphonic’s music however has not suffered though time and changes. The venue was sold out and if I believe the noise the crowd made, they were not disappointed.
On a technical note: The light was awful, they used LED’s a lot if not only, and a very harsh blue light. I had to wait for the rare “neutral” spots to be activated to tale my pictures. The pit was very narrow as well, which made with all the photographers in there for a difficult place to move around and get different angles. I used the 28-75 mm only for this one as changing lenses was not an option here. Even if it was, I might have changed to the Fisheye but I was so close that I am not sure it would have resulted in interesting shots anyways.
The rest of the pictures can be seen here on flickr.
