You gotta love when performers leave their mics and set stage positions, come to the front, and just rock out. That’s exactly what happened during the second song of Fall Out Boy’s performance at the Pageant, when Patrick Stump and Joe Trohman ripped it up together for a few sweet moments during their (RED)Nights concert performance on a break from touring with Blink-182.
Overall, this show was very challenging and chaotic, but for me, it’s a shot like this that makes it all worth it. Here, the guys are all lit with spotlights (with the exception of drummer Andy Hurley) – one on Pete Wentz in back while Stump and Trohman share one. Stump is also being lit with a warm uplight that’s washing over his face.
As an aside, when I was editing through the set for Fall Out Boy, I zoomed in and, to my surprise, saw that Patrick Stump was rocking a silver Nooka Zub Zoo! Nooka makes some of my favorite watches, so it’s always fun to see who else is wearing them.
More images coming from the full set, so stay tuned!

Ahhh. Just a preview. Tricked me. I really dig this shot though. I remember this moment during “Disloyal Order Of Water Buffaloes.” Kind of an epic arena rock song for Fall Out Boy. But it’s really cool live, Patrick always gets really into it.
Hey Chris,
Just a preview, though this was a standout image/moment for me, partly because this shot probably has more atmosphere than a lot of the set. I’d have loved a more lush treatment, tough from what I’ve seen, Fall Out Boy doesn’t go too crazy with the production.
Looking forward to seeing the rest of the set!
Hey Abel, thanks for the comment, stay tuned.
Hey Todd another great set of pics.I nearly have everyone here in Ireland told about your brilliant work,they just love your pics.I see you’re going to GWAR !!!Might be safer to photograph them from the balcony or through a window !…they are mad live.The photo pit might not be a safe place !!…LOL!Cheers.
Hey Paul,
Thanks for the kind words, and for telling others about the site here, I appreciate it.
Not 100% on GWAR, but if I do go, it’s going to be interesting.

im lokin good.
I agree wholeheartedly. It is a welcome when performers leave their mics and set stage positions! Then you don’t have to worry about those pesky mic stands! Great shots as usual Todd!
Oops… that last comment got a way from me…I meant to say, “It is a welcome sight when performers leave their mics and set stage positions.”
