'“The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." - Hunter S Thompson

These photos are from my time as a music photographer which was fun but exhausting - I got to see firsthand the business in action as described above. These particular photos document the fun side of it, shooting live music up to ten nights in a row. I took these images at the now defunct ATP music festivals. I joined Street Level in 2010 at the point where I found myself moving away from music photography and going back to wandering the streets with a film camera in hand which is pretty much where I've been since.I use mainly the developing facilities in Street Level.'
