Shooting from the crowd with a point and shoot camera, reviewing for my online magazine I had the most embarrassing moment when I was doing a little bit of a video to capture something for the review. Ian Astbury in front of a packed house, came over and told me to turn it off, then went on a rant about people filming gigs. He later must have felt a bit of compassion as he handed me his tambourine, the one in this photo.
