Moonshine Still Concert

Saturday I was in Macon at the Cox Capitol Theater. There I saw Moonshine Still as well as three other bands at a charity concert. I wasn't there merely to watch the show however. I went to film the concert with several other students and a professor, Stacy Lumley, at GCSU.
We had 4 cameras set up during the show. Two wide shots and me and another camera were in front of and behind the stage getting close ups on some very talented bands.
Included in the line up were Brass Tacks, Saint Francis, and Treas in Season. The last two are very similar jam bands to Moonshine Still and actually share some members. Brass Tacks, however, was similar to The Black Keys and a good band to check out if you like a lot of distortion.
I learned several techniques for live filming and worked with a monopod for the first time. All-in-all it was a valuable and fun experience.
