crowd cheering. rock music plays. i went to a lot of gigs when i was an early teenager, and i always used to see photographers in the front, and thought that would be a really cooljob to try and do. i had no idea of how to do it. but a few months later, there was a concert i really wanted to go to, and it was sold out. it was an english rock band called the subways, and i tried everyone and anyone to see if i could get a press pass, cos i knew that'd be a way in to the concert. got no response from them, and eventually i actually ended up messaging the band members themselves and, amazingly, they responded and said yes. so i went and photographed that concert and that was where it all began.
