i drove to work in the morning as i had to drop Pearl off at dodgy daycare.
i left work a bit before 4pm so i could find somewhere to park near the stadium and then met up with the other photographers to go backstage for the AC/DC concert! We had our own little holding area which was quite spacious so we could sit around between bands. there were three bands so by the time AC/DC were on i knew my way around the giant photo pit and had experimented with a few lenses and positions.
at the start of the concert we were all told to strictly stay behind a certain point to avoid being hit by fireworks. fair enough
it all went very quickly then we were escorted off the venue and i was home by 10pm.
