Not true.
Flash is perfect for getting a really sharp photo of the guy in fronts head, including his bold-patch. Of course the band are out of focus and not lit ....but what the hell. :wink:

Check out 'Member & Guests' 'Say Cheese' page 1 my first entry for the photo, didn't come out as clear as the original on here though.

Over exposure is always good, with a slanting horizon, add some camera shake and you've got a sold out exhibition. Cynical me?

There are quite a few photographers who have set up shop along Brighton sea front. Some of them are pretty good and one or two lack any idea of compostion. There is one there who sells prints at £15 a pop, which wouldn't be so bad, but every shot of the sea, has a sloping horizon. Pretty basic error and one that could still have been corrected before offering them for sale.

At TD's Royal Albert Hall concert in 1975, TD used one of the first 'samples' (albeit on tape) it was recording of the audience applauding at their previous concert at the Rainbow in London (full review of that concert to follow...soon/ish)
