Thanks for all the insight, folks. Mark's use of flash certainly
sounds interesting, but I don't have the hardware for it. Current
plans are fast film and ear plugs!
Actually that's a fair comment. Use top quality ear defenders - I have

Like others have said, spot meter the faces. If you can't, definitely
underexpose a bit. You're shooting neg, so you'll have plenty of

Yes, you did. g Since the band I'm photographing is a fairly loud
rock and roll outfit, I had planned on using grainy black and white
anyway. But I suppose it depends on the performance, venue, etc. If
I was photographing an orchestra, I might use something a bit more
refined.

I don't know of a source of 1000+ASA slide
Actually only Jazz photography. Also there is one that requires the venue to be
painted flat black and the lighting level to be kept at the same level as
provided by a new moon.
Aside to original poster.: If your are working with the band, you have lots of

Scott,
I really like P3200 for this kind of thing--the grain
enhances the smoky nocturnal atomosphere, I think.
Off-camera flash is also very helpful, but hard to
arrange on short notice.

What Cotty said. Stage lights are almost always bright enough for
available light photography. Use high speed film if you have to. I'd
bring some Tri-X and some Delta 3200 or Kodak TMZ 3200. You can rate
either of those last two at 800 or 1600 if you have enough light. The

I use flash for this kind of work, but I find TTL metering mandatory, so
it won't be an option if you're using the MX.
