  O2 Academy, Newcastle – Tuesday 20th October 2009 Only arranged this show the day before and was looking forward to it as other photographers who have shot the rest of the tour had been aloud to shoot full sets with flash which would have been a dream. Turn up to the venue to be told 3 song no flash rule applies which is sucky, Gibson text the tour manager to see what the crack was but we were told its the …

  O2 Academy, Newcastle – 17th October 2009 Featuring Bowing For Soup, Zebrahead, The Leftovers and Mc Lars Newcastle Academy had one of the first shows of a pretty impressive tour passing through. Another sold out show featuring The Leftovers, Mc Lars with Failsafe as his backing band, Zebrahead and Bowling for soup – Not bad at all for a Sunday night!

Got in the venue fine and took Victoria with me, no photopass on the door …

Which sucked a little but I had heard and seen good things about the lighting on …

• The Maccabees

  October 17, 2009

  O2 Academy, Newcastle – Thursday 7th October 2009 I was lucky enough to arrange a pass last minute for The Maccabees at the O2 Academy, Newcastle – Really enjoyed the show, only two acts on the bill and the first act really weren’t that great but The Maccabees put on a great live performance as ever! Wasn’t a fan of The Maccabees until earlier this year when I caught them for the first time live at Evolution Festival 2009 – …
