Linkin Park - O2 Arena - 24/11/14

Last week I shot my biggest gig so far - Linkin Park at the O2 Arena! While I've shot a number of massive bands this year at festivals, shooting Linkin Park at the O2 Arena was definitely the biggest show I've shot in the 6 years that I've been shooting live music.

I've been a fan of Linkin Park for so long so this gig meant alot to me. I remember when 'Crawling' was released and the 10 year old me wanted to learn the lyrics so my dad played and played the song till we'd written the whole song down!

After only being confirmed around 1'oclock on the day of the show, I rushed straight back home after work, grabbed my gear and then jumped on trains and tubes to get to the O2 in time!

I've been to the O2 once, a few years ago when I saw Jack Johnson, it's an amazing venue and an epic place to shoot at. I stuck to using my Tamron 70-200mm f/2.8 and we were lucky enough to get 4 songs in the pit, the rest of the set to shoot elsewhere and then another 2 songs in the pit for the encore...

Here's quite a large selection of photos from the night...
