29.07.2010. Festival Updates, Next gigs

 

What a busy summer it is! Some festivals added, some festivals cancelled, plans always slightly subject to change, but it's 'almost' final now. Here are some of the next gigs I've been booked for...

 

• July 30th: SONISPHERE UK: Cancelled
• August 5th and 6th: WACKEN OPEN AIR , Germany
• August 7th: ALCATRAZ Metal Fest, Gent, Belgium
• August 19-21st: SUMMER BREEZE, Germany
• August 28th SUMMER's END OPEN AIR, Germany
• September 9th: HEIDENFEST, Germany

 

See you there, maybe. I'll be quite busy working on all these events but if you're around or need pics, you know where to find me.

And just for kicks, let's congratulate MEGADETH for being the 400th band to be featured on ShutterBLAST!

19.07.2010. TUSKA FESTIVAL 2010 - Day 3

As previously mentioned, our focus this year wasn't photography at the TUSKA Festival, but another great video documentary that we're putting together as you read this.

 

However we still managed to shoot our usual partners FINNTROLL along with the legendary MEGADETH on Day 3 of the TUSKA Festival.

17.07.2010. TUSKA FESTIVAL 2010 - Day 1

Our all-time favorite festival, TUSKA took once again and for the last time place in the heart of HELSINKI from the 2nd of July 2010 to the 4th of July 2010 at Kaisaniemi Park.

 

Once again, there will not be any photos of day 2,  because the day was spent searching for an emergency dentist, as I broke my tooth on the Saturday morning. Day 3 will be uploaded soon!

 

Please find below the photos of the world-wide exclusive show of Devin Townsend's ZILTOID THE OMNISCIENT!!
