GWAR @ House of Blues
Monday, June 21st, 2010Well I guess I’ve gone from one extreme to the other. I had the opportunity..if you want to call it that..to shoot GWAR. GWAR is like a death metal band that wears these ridiculous costumes and puts on an interesting show. They kill people on stage, spray everyone with fake blood and other things. It’s definitely not an ideal shooting situation for us photographers. The staff at the House of Blues was allowed to wear whatever clothes they wanted to that night as well, if that tells you anything of what to expect.
I only spent 3 songs in the pit between the stage and barricade, and I came out a complete (fake) bloody mess. The Red Sox game next to the HoB had just got out when I was leaving, and it was fun explaining why I looked like this to 100’s of people.

Anyways, here are the photos of GWAR…
