Musical Memories - Part IV

One of my many 2019 highlights was getting a photo pass to shoot the concerts at the annual Saint-Lambert en Fête.  I had been going to this event since my family had moved to the city when I was eight years old.  So, it was extra special to me to be back on the site, this time camera in hand as photographer taking in the shows from the front of the stage.  This set of photographs took place on the third evening of the event.  Up first was Onefourtyseven.  A group of local young men that were playing before a hometown crowd.  Up next on the big stage was one of Montreal's best known 80s post-punk and new wave cover band, The Tina Trons.  The final act of the night, and festival headliner, was Sylvain Cossette who was performing his "The 80's" show.  The first photograph was taken at f/2.8, 1/160sec, ISO 100 at 200mm.  Here are a couple more photographs.

f/2.8, 1/250sec, ISO 3200 at 90mm

That was the end of the festivities, but what a great memory and four-day event it was.  If you'd like to find out more about Onefortyseven, The Tina Trons and Sylvain Cossette, follow the links to their respective websites.  If you'd like to see the other photographs I took of the groups, you can find Onefortyseven at this link, The Tina Trons at this link and Sylvain Cossette at this link.  I hope to get the chance to photograph them again soon.
