This is not a unique take, but it’s worth repeating. Concert ticket prices have gone insane. I was notified that I was waitlisted to buy tickets for a big tour next year. This morning, I get a text that I’m off the waitlist. I wait for my turn to come up, only to see that the cheapest ticket available is $300. Each. For my husband, my son, and me to go to see this artist, it would cost upwards of $1000. For a concert! I get that artist…

What’s the most disappointing concert you’ve gone to? What’s the concert or gig you were most hyped for that ended up being a letdown? Mine is Ashnikko. Flew to Auckland to see her, and she was lipsynching the whole time to her Spotify tracks played loudly on a bad speaker system. (Even her songs with features just played the released version including vocals from other artists who weren’t there.) …

Advice for indoor concert photography? I was taking photos in an inside arena which had low light and was unable to use flash for this event. I have the following equipment: Canon 6D Canon EF 24-70mm f2.8 II Canon EF 85mm 1.2 II ​I was thinking about using the 24-70 though found the 85 to be quite effective and lowering the aperture to 1.2 was very useful in bringing in more light….

What concert advice do you want to give to people who haven’t gone to any or many shows? Saw a post about someone getting crushed rail riding at a Death Grips show recently and they admitted to being new to the concert experience. I have had fun riding the rail at some shows but usually not big rowdy ones. I recommended seeking out a spot in front of the sound booth, there is usually more room and a decent view, also sound is usual…

What happens to tickets when a concert sells poorly? Hey all! There’s this concert on the 3rd of October I’ve been eyeing for several weeks now thats selling really poorly. Probably only 35-45% ish tickets sold. Prices are still listed on Ticketmaster for $50 without fees and I’m curious if retail prices decline right before an event if the concert isnt selling well? I imagine selling something is…

Lens Suggestions (Concert Photography) Hello! Have recently started shooting shows on film, and I wanted to upgrade my lens. I currently use a Ricoh KR-Super II with a Ricoh 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 Rikenon P Macro lens. My camera takes any K-mount lens and I’m looking to upgrade to a f/2.8 or larger. I’m still pretty new to film photography, and I am a student so my budget isn’t huge. Open…

Best lens options for concert photography I bought myself a camera about a year ago and have been taking pictures of local bands in my city. I’m still learning but really enjoying it and want to buy a better lens for myself. A lot of my pictures turn out pretty dark because of how dark the venues can be, and my current lens doesn’t doesn’t have a zoom. This is my camera type: Olympus om…

I’d like to get into concert photography, any suggestions? For context, I have a Canon M50 mark ii with the kit lens (15-45mm IS STM f/3.5-6.3), a Canon 55-250mm IS STM f/4.0-5.6, and plan to buy a Canon 10-18mm IS STM f/4.5-5.6. I think these three lenses would cover most photo situations for smaller venues based on my practice and research. I’ve been in a few local bands and have had photos taken for …

Bought Earplugs to Wear to Concert, But They Make Me Feel Sick? Apologies if this isn’t the right sub. I bought a pair of Earos earplugs for a concert I’m going to soon, but when I wear them my eyes water and I feel nauseous. I’m using the small size, but should I try to find another company that makes an extra small? Is this something that will go away over time? I’ve only been able to keep them in about te…

Never did any concert photography. Had a chance to take a few photos of a small time music event. Are these any good? This was shot with a Sony a7mk2, Sony 50mm FE, an extraordinary slow lens, but I like it mostly because of how small and light it is. I liked how it felt to shoot something like this, and I’m curious what you think of these shots. submitted by /u/gamma-ray-bursts
