The second band on the bill at the MTelus on Wednesday night was Palaye Royale. A
group of good ol' Canadian boys who were bundles of energy up on the
stage. Their constant movement, coupled with low lighting conditons,
made capturing some nice shots a little more difficult, but I think I
still managed to pull off some eye pleasers. In preparation for the
show, I had picked up their first CD a few weeks back and was more than
happy to see that the second was available at the show. What's fun
about these triple bills is getting introduced to bands that I hadn't
heard of before. I'm glad that I had the chance to check them out. The
first photograph was taken at f/2.8, 1/250sec, ISO 3200 at 54mm. Here are some more that I took during their set.

As I said these guys were full of energy. One moment I was shooting the guitarist and the next thing I knew, the singer was standing on the stack of speakers or diving into the crowd. They really got the crowd going and played some great songs. The crowd, and Your Friendly Neighbourhood Photographer, had a great time.
