Beasto Blanco At MTelus

I was fortunate enough to acquire a photo pass for a triple bill at Montreal's MTelus theatre on Wednesday night.  It was an evening of bone rattling hard and heavy rock and roll.  The first band to hit the stage was Beasto Blanco.  I hadn't heard of them until a few weeks before the show, but I enjoyed their set so much that I picked up their CD in between sets from the merchandise booth.  Led by veteran bassist Chuck Garric and vocalist Calliope Cooper (daughter of Alice), these guys did their best to blow the roof off of the building before everyone even had the chance to get in.  The first photograph was taken at f/2.8, 1/125sec, ISO 3200 at 42mm and here are a few more.

Fun story with that last photograph, I was trying to get a shot of the guitarist when I suddenly felt a cold chill on my head.  I had just been blasted with the extinguisher canon by Alice Cooper's daughter and I can't think of anything more cool that I could write than that.  You can find out more about Beasto Blanco and their music by visiting their website.
