Canadian rock, 38 years later ;)

So yeah, it's not the summer of '69 anymore - but Bryan Adams is still going strong

and the fans were lapping it up

Both of these D2X, 70-200 f/2.8VR, ISO 800, 1/160sec at f/2.8.

...And still playing that first real six string rather well by the looks of it

You really caught the action and atmosphere well here VP, love the portrait shot

Me too, love the 1st one

Bryan Adams fan here

Looking good! Really like that 2nd - wonderful the way you've caught the audience in the corner like that (and I'm guessing, extra brownie points for including the logo/banner so well!)

Looking good and @ iso800

Not a Bryan Adams fan but I did see him live once and I'll admit he got my feet tapping

Thanks to all for the comments; he'll be performing again up my way at Murrayfield Stadium on 21st July - you can't beat open-air concerts for good, all round lighting and crowd enthusiasm so, assuming that it doesn't conflict with any other job, I hope to shoot him again.

Update: I just found out that one of my shots from the gig was run in The Times on 9th May; they even use a little snippet of it for their web review here

Excellent! Well done VP

Gary - you probably did not notice as this was at the very bottom of the post.
