Hello,

My real name is not 'Skip Intro', as you may have deducted.

I am from Sydney, Australia.

These pix were shot by me for The Associated Press and for Corbis:

Corbis is headquartered in Seattle and is owned by Bill Gates, of Microsoft fame, as one of his personal investment holdings.

The Associated Press is The Associated Press.

At this particular concert, Andrew Eldritch wore a colour commonly called "day-glo". It is officially known as 'tennis-ball yellow', so I guess Eldritch is especially serious about escaping the 'goth' tag in Australia, where summers are ridiculously hot and you can get punched out if you are a guy who enjoys dressing like Dracula's grandmother.

Tech Data (for those who are interested):

- Canon 1D Mark III camera bodies (times two)
- Canon 24-70mm f2.8 lens
- Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 II lens
- Canon 300mm f2.8 lens
- Available light for all pix

The lighting was crap; the venue was small; the Sisters have done themselves no favours by not releasing an album in 22 years...

Looks like Rob Halford just off his community service...

Cracking photos.
Thanks for the linky

I guess (coming from Australia) your real name would be "Skippy Intro"

What he said.

Someone can upload these pics at ImageShack or imgur? Corbis Images just blocked 90% of their images for Brazilian visitors.

They're my pix. Please don't infringe my copyright. Just look at them and enjoy them - or be a real voyeur and go to a Sisters concert in-person and gawk at Eldo up-close-and-personal.

Sh-t, I live literally over the road from Dennis Handlin, the Australian CEO of Sony Music. Do you think his goddamn company ("the McDonalds of the music industry", as I call it) had foreseen the havoc wreaked by illegal downloads ?!?

Cheers everyone, be well, happy new year... each new year starts off well and ends up becoming a reality check

Robert.

^^^ does the above link work any better? (I know it can be frustrating when a link doesn't work!)

You might have to scroll through a few of my Coldplay pix, and, hey, I'm sorry - a fellow photographer in Sydney describes Coldplay as "a student band"...

Didn't Work, i can some only some pics from Les Miserables Premiere (nice pix btw), and from ColdPlay, but not a single Von pic.

works if you search for Andrew Eldritch

Try via a proxy server. Might work

nope. It doesn't work, too bad.

Allo, by the way.

Kindly thanks to Skip Intro for the pics

Thanks a lot for the pics, Skip Intro.

(Andrew, luv, that yellow/green/fluorescent/whatever shirt is completely unforgivable!)

Nah...we should leave the yellow/green - coloured neon stuff vor and buy you a neon pink one instead, Steve! Pink is the new black and waaaay more g**th, so it should suit you just perfectely.
