Cameraphone in the pocket.

'nuff said.

Actually, I was referring to pictures of the meet-up before the show.

Thanks for clarifying that Dave. The last time I saw Stanley was with Jean-Luc Ponty and Bella Fleck in an old converted movie theatre. Some clown a few rows up was taking pictures with the brightest flash I've ever seen. What made it real bad was the flash would light up for several seconds before flashing. Finally the guy in front of him told him to quite. It almost ruined a great concert.

Sam.
I've never seen the point of using a flash from the audience anyway. Most flashes on the type of cameras smuggled into gigs only have an effective range of 15 feet at most so all they're lighting up is the back of peoples heads and the stage will appear darker as a result. I'm genarally happy taking pictures down to a 15th of a second handheld on my slr but it's too bulky to smuggle into a gig;-(
I'll certainly make sure I get pics before the gig. Just need to arrange a meeting place - best suggested by our southern contingent.

I know what you mean Graeme. It's so funny watching a football game or other nighttime outside event on TV. There are flashes all over the stands and they're not doing a thing.

I'm there on the 30th, trains permitting.......and you're so right about camera flashes!
