Title: It's all fun and games until....
Post by: MatHayward on February 14, 2013, 20:37

You get a flu filled snot ball in the mouth...

Check out what happened to me the other night.  Has anyone here had anything worse happen during a shoot?

Sh-----t,  that was a tough gig.  I would have taken a very long shower . . . . .

Really impressed with the Photography, well done!

What a POS.

I don't see why he thinks he can get away with assaulting you like that just because he sings songs for a living. The guy needs to grow up.

If someone did that to me on the street I would want to see them arrested (although I guess my first assumption would be that  they were mentally ill)

Good on you for being such a pro about the whole thing.

OMG!  I would have died!  What a pig!  You did get some great shots and that's gotta be a testament to your professionalism.  Kudos for keeping it together. ;)

Yeah, it pretty much sucked.  I'm not sure it's what I want to be known for as a photographer but I supposed any press is good press right?  :)

Here is a link to an on-air interview I gave the next day too...

Great interview.  You showed a lot of class . . . . . . .  but maybe you should have clocked him.

Well he's going to want  to buy a photo to remember the incident, don't sell it to him cheap! Also if this story gets published in biographies, music mags etc.

"Is This The Most Vile Concert Incident Ever?"

Oh, that is so disgusting!  Worse than when Jim Morrison peed on concert goers (before my time of course).   

Hope you had your flu shot Mat.  If not, I would get one before you shoot anymore concerts.    :-X

Good job on restraining yourself.
