KISS are playing at the Air Canada Centre at 8pm. Okay, so no professional cameras are allowed inside if you are a ticket holder, but I bet there will be some interesting fans all dressed up going in to see the concert just outside the ACC and around Union Station.

I'm not sure if I will have time to attend the pre-concert photo opp, but I would sure be interested in knowing if anyone else is interested and a possible place to meet. Would love to see other's postings of fans, because the fans might just be as interesting as the band.

P.S. GWAR is another costumed band that might have some "dedicated followers." They are playing the Sound Academy on Nov. 2nd. Great photo opp too.

If you shoot Gwar, you'll REALLY REALLY need rain gear for your camera if you're in the front. Your camera WILL get wet.

Hi Carrie:

Ha ha! Thanks for the notice! I'll bring along some plastic bags and a Dollarama rain coat if I go see them.

BTW do you take pictures of fans? Is there a market for photos of fans?

A market, as in, would I charge them for pics? I take pics of fans if they're interesting or they have a lot of energy, and if they happen to find them online, I send a medium res photo (large enough for about 5x7) for free. I have no interest in profiting from fans that way, personally. If they want to buy prints of a band, however...
