Preview: Childish Gambino @ The Pageant

Here’s a quick preview of Childish Gambino’s sold out performance at the Pageant last night. For this gig, I wasn’t sure what the lighting was going to be like, but I knew that Donald Glover would bring a fast attack on the stage just from his video for the excellent  music video for “Freaks & Geeks.”

Photographer’s Notes:

Cameras Used:

• Nikon D3
• Nikon D700

Lenses Used:

• Nikon 24-70mm f/2.8
• Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8

The energy for this gig was pretty massive, and one of the best parts about it was shooting atmosphere to try and capture the energy that was bouncing around the Pageant. Stay tuned for the full set and write-up from Childish Gambino/Donald Glover’s set headling at the Pageant on the CAMP tour.
