Sal Marsh Live Rock Photography From The Kill Zone

All my photographs are taken from the pit - usually front row on the audience side of the barrier, or somewhere in the standing area. All the images are using my "point and shoot" Lumix and Sony cameras unless otherwise stated. I have used a Canon EOS 5D Mark II on 2 occasions but normally my photos are from a fan's eye view right in the thick of the audience.

Saw the incredible Dead Cross at Camden’s Underworld last night. Totally blown away. It was a last minute gig and only cost a tenner!!

Lord Dying supporting Cancer Bats at Brighton’s Concorde 2, January 13, 2016

Photographed using my wonderful little Sony DSC-HX20V using manual settings without flash. I was at the front, to the right hand side of the stage, standing with friends, so I didn’t block anybodies view. Blocking people’s enjoyment of gigs by blocking their view with your arms and camera held up in front of them is a huge no-no, especially when you like to take as many photos as I do.

A couple of weeks ago I went to see one of my favorite bands Cancer Bats at Brighton’s Concorde 2.

Love taking photos of all the bands, and Palm Reader were one of the 3 support bands. I’d never heard of them before but they played a great 30 minute set.

Liam Cormier and Jaye R. Schwarzer of Cancer Bats at their Concorde2 gig in Brighton on January 13, 2016

Their fantastic drummer Mike Peters was at the back of the stage and out of my view. That’s the only reason there’s no photos of him in my collections. .
