LUBD at the Phoenix

I'm not sure how these things happen, but they do, and quite often. The guys were booked at the Phoenix with a bunch of hardcore, death metal bands. I was pretty impressed with the chick dummer of the band that played after Level Up Beat Down, but was only able to watch one song. The guys did a pretty good job of clearing the room. Their mellowness just couldn't be handled by the supporters of the other bands. And, Lady Gaga only helped to allienate the audidence even further.
The lighting at the Phoenix is pretty good compared to many other places. I was able to boost up the ISO and get some good photos without flash. I just love the ones without flash.
