i was wondering what would be the best way to find a really good band photo(on stage preferably)....i had a jersey autoed by the band and would like to compliment it with an autoed band photo...such lofty dreams..thanks in advance for any help

I was lucky enough to be on stage and get some really nice stuff in Boston and Chicago during the 2002 IVL tour. What are you looking for exactly? And yeah, I am a real photographer... none of this disposable stuff!

i would prefer a wide kinda in front profile sort of thing that captures the band as a whole, you know? obviously,a photographer i`m not with my description

I'm partial to this one since I took it myself from the front row of the 2nd Calgary show at the Jubilee. Not really super quality but I kinda like it. :wink: Fantastic show. I took about 24 and only a few turned out.

well I can't seem to post it in here but here's the link:

I've got lots of great individual stuff, Stage light, bleached light (The entire frame and subject bathed in red or blue) and low light stuff of each member of the band. Unfortunately, one of the draw backs to being on the stage is that it doesn't lend itself to great wide angle stuff of the collective. I'm going to try and get some on this tour, though.

Have you tried a google image search yet? There are some beautiful shots there... If you're willing to pay for some shots, Chris Morris, their old photographer has some beautiful studio and stage shots. He's based in Toronto, studio's probably listed in the phone book or Canada411.

Good luck!

I know the ahead by a century has a dozens of fantastic pictures...

Because of my shooting location at both Ottawa Bluesfests where I took the shots, I have some excellent pictures of Gord...but not the whole band. The 2nd time, when I got my very best shots, Gord Sinclair, Bobby and Paul were all directly in front of lights and none of my pictures of them turned out.

Here's what I got...if it's Gord you're looking for you should love it.
