>>110867 just talk to bands and offer your services. bands love shots they can put on teh "myspacez/beboez/facebookz"
generally they get X number of people on the door list, offer free pics(on a CD, not prints incase you were wondering) and you should be sweet. good way to meet new people as well and possibly some free beerz.
but, and its a big but!!!! when working with young/inexperienced/unrecognised/dumbass bands: expect to lose at least your whole night waiting for them to setup, check etc etc. most shoots i was there from bout ~8-~12
also dont expect money/getting payed: most of these bands barely get anything in their own pockets and what they do get, good luck getting a cut of it.
also dont expect much recognition for a long time. most of the people who see the photoez are "myspacez/facebookz/beboez" tards who wont remember your name so wont hire you for their band, and if they do, theyll forget to put your name on the door or wont care when you do turn up.
basically: dont expect to go anywhere with it, you could be working for years before some slightly more well known band asks you for pics. even then they prob wont pay either, theyre prob only slightly less skint than the previous band.
basically 2: dont do it, or expect to lose nights, fun, money from getting to/from and just generally dont do it! there'r easier ways to get known in the photog world. though they suck prob only slightly less....
