30 Seconds to Mars

Jared Leto

Great fun finally getting to see and photograph 30 Seconds to Mars.  I've been trying to catch them for 6 years....Jared cancelled due to sickness the last time I was to photograph them at Taste of Chaos.  Lucky 94.7 listener Noah Thompson won a guitar and a chance to play a song on stage with the band live during the show.....and he actually knew the song....good job Noah.  It was great meeting the band and shooting their meet and greet....but I was bummed I only got to shoot the beginning of the show from the sound board and the band had zero front lights all night.  Kinda a bummer if you came to see the band.  The above lit shot is thanks to me catching a fans flash as they took a shot up front.  Still an excellent show and Sac's own Middle Class Rut rocked their opening slot.  Good luck to them on the whole tour.
