So after the gig of "ICH + ICH" the "show" went on.... there was a DJ and some dancing girls and boys around - very nice to look at ..... later on they had a band called " Scooter" (they are well known in Germany also) and I was asked to come backstage again as I had to take some photos with them and the people of the event.
What can I say about a 12 hours photoshooting??? It is very very - and I mean very very stressful and tiring - even you have some moments which are special (for example meeting and chatting with the bands you normally see in front of your TV). I was always looking for scenes to take photos of
- no problem when there was something going on on stage - but it was a huge venue so I had to run from point A to point B and back - always thinking while being on point A that I miss something special on point B...... And honestly there is a little challenge between the photographers - even they disagree - everyone wants to make some special shots.
At two o clock I did a mistake - I took a seat for a few moments (I knew that it has been an afterwork party and most of them will wear something nice - so as I had to "work" I wore a beige trousers and a blouse but got asked to wear a t-shirt which said: " Ich bin ein Feierbiest" - (I am a party chick) and a " 07:00" - means I shouldn't leave before 07.00 o clock in the morning..... and I wore no sports shoes - I wore some "nice" shoes with a heel....... So after I took the seat and I got up again - my poooooooor feet!!!!! I swore to myself not taking a seat anymore that evening (that morning)
After I did the photoshooting backstage with Scooter I went around and took photos and around 06.00 o clock in the morning I packed my photobag and asked for a taxi - sun was almost out then and when I came home at 06.30 I was sooo "under pressure" that I couldn't get my mind to rest.... So it took me more than an hour to sleep and woke up at 10.00 o clock again......
Here are some impressions of that great event:
