This is cathy davey who played down in waterford a long time ago. Working in such low light really proved difficult but i managed to pull some nice ones out of the gig. I liked this one alot, i think it was the lighting that did it for me.
I wasnt using flash throughout the gig which some might think was odd.
I dunno why people think using flash at gigs is such a big deal, look at all the early punk photos, if used correctly can give amazing results, its not for every gig but it is a helpful tool.
I think you were right not to use it here and you got a great result though.
I personally think using the lighting from stage works very well indoor – allthough it can be awkward if they are constantly changing but you can get some great results.
