Working at concerts is great, you can get some nice shots from the pit and maybe even get to know the bands. But also, just attending and enjoying a gig in the crowd, hanging out with fans is pretty nice. So here`s a little insight from Ghosts Vienna Concert during their Imperatour.
We had pit tickets and of course I wanted to be first row, so I was already at the venue 4 hours before entry. As soon as they opened the doors, I ran to the stage to get a nice place on the right.
First band to play was Twin Temple. Great satanic band from America, to classify in a genre mix of rock and jazz. They did a very theatric performance with a ritual of drinking blood out of a chalice at the end. Definitely an unforgettable experience!
Second band was English Doom Metal Band Uncle Acid. I just love their style and dark music! Bassist Dean Millar did hell of a show on stage dancing and headbanging all the time.
The only poor thing was the sound engineering. Drums and Bass were so loud, you couldn`t hear any singing and the Guitars were only hearable in Solos.
But now to the Band we all waited for the most…Ghost!
Kaisarion is such a great opener and I really hope it stays for the upcoming Tours. The performance, the music, the cute interactions between bandmembers were hilarious as always and we all enjoyed the show, having a good time together.
Two girls next to me even made a poster showing it to the band on stage. One of the best moments was when Aether (Black Guitar) made a paper plane out of a Mummy Dust Dollar and threw it into the Crowd. Sadly, it landed in the pit, but the Security guy nicely handed it to me. I saw the girls next to me looked a little disappointed when they didn`t get it so I gave it to them as it seems like they really wanted it!
I was able to get some nice shots, even though they weren`t made with a camera.
At the end I was kinda sad that I couldn`t get a pick for my collection, maybe next time. :)
All in all the whole Concert was great and fun and everyone seemed to enjoy it!
