Motorhead @ Hallenstadion - Zurich

Zurich – 21 October 2011

Only a couple of shots available here due to restrictions. I’ll post a link if they make it online at blick.ch, one of the big newspapers in Switzerland.

This was a cracking gig, far exceeding the effort last year in Winterthur. Over 5,000 fans packed into a shortened Hallenstadion with Motorhead rocking the place with good sound and great lights.

Used the 1D4 with 70-200mm at f/2.8 due to the height of the stage and the distance Lemmy was standing back. Started with ISO4000 but went up to ISO5000 trying to keep shutter speeds above 1/125 due to the pretty flat lighting on the band itself. Hence the shots are grainier than normal.
