As promised, here is Good Riddance’s set at the TINY Old Ironsides. I am still shocked that they played such a small venue. The place sold out and it was PACKED in there. I was planning to do multicam video, but I got there late (read about the comedy of errors on the urethane post). It’s a good thing I didn’t try- my gear would not have survived that crowd.
I made a last minute decision to bring the HFG60 and use a LANC controller, which is like a remote control that lets me pan/zoom and make adjustments. Good thing I did, since I had to jack up my monopod to the ceiling in order to get a decent angle of the band- Old I’s stage is low. Old I’s stage also had some issues with lighting recently, but that has mostly been corrected. As you can see, there is no fill light coming from the side of the stage that I film from.
Despite all of the issues, I think it came out pretty good. The audio sounds fantastic, thanks to the schoeps.
