Comeback Kid & Foundation (S&C Tour) Part II.

Here is the second part of the Comeback Kid, Symptoms & Cures tour, from Douglasville, GA at the 7 Venue. This post is made up of photos of Atlanta’s own Foundation and Comeback Kid themselves. You may have seen my photos from the last time I shot CBK up in Chattanooga with This Is Hell and The Chariot. If you haven’t, check it out! First off, I was stoked to shoot Foundation. I’ve been to countless hometown shows that they have played, but this time, I just so happen to be taking photos.

It was great to see the CBK dudes again, catch up, stage dive, and snag some shots of them. They are, honestly, some of the nicest dudes and I appreciate Andrew and the rest of the guys supporting what I do. Below, you’ll see we snagged a quick group shot before they hit the stage. You’ll also notice their new guitarist Stu Ross (also singer of Living With Lions). So now, go, like all their facebook pages, buy their merch if you feel inclined, and support all these hard working bands.

COMEBACK KID

Now, shooting hardcore shows is probably the hardest thing for me to shoot. Not because it’s technically hard to get good shots, because I’ve been doing it since I started taking photos. It’s because you have to decide, “Do I get out and sing this part?” “Do I shoot that song?” “Do I stage during that one?” etc. etc. Literally, it’s hard to control the urge to headwalk with a camera in your hand. The whole point of hardcore is to experience it, not to be entertained. Yet if you shoot it, you sometimes miss the experience of a great moment in order to capture it. You could technically say you experience, but throwing your body off a stage or screaming your lungs out while climbing over mounds of kids is whole different experience than snapping a rad shot of it.
