Flogging Molly @ Warped Tour 2009, Scranton PA – 07.15.09

Flogging Molly continue to be one of the most exciting bands to see live and to photograph live as well. Even though all the kids love to be screamed out these days, Flogging Molly are still one of the most popular bands on the Warped Tour.

Everytime I shoot Flogging Molly, I can’t decide who i’m going to focus on. Sometimes it’s Dave, and then sometimes it’s Matt. This time around I wanted to get an equal chance to all the band members. I think I concentrated on Dennis the most because he was the most animated. Dave and Bridget do their thing, Nathan and Matt scream and move around a bit but Dennis is the one jumping and kickin’. Some of the songs that the Celtic punk band played were: “Selfish Man,” “Requiem For A Dying Song,” “Drunken Lullabies,” “Float,” “Tobacco Island” and “Devil’s Dance Floor.” For this set, I used my 18-70mm f3.5-4.5 and 70-200mm f2.8 lenses. I wanted to get a few closeups of Dave and other members, but for the most part I stuck with the kit lens.
