Kudos for these pics (and other pics) that show the crowd and especially the interplay between the crowd and the band. I absolutely love seeing audience pics and the “live” part of any live performance. Too often, photographers only focus on the band and you tend to get those static typical band pics and I know the venues don’t really help sometimes as they herd the photogs out of the photog pit after 3 or less songs but capturing the crowd moments are just the best thing about live performance photography and / or video.
Billy — Read the headline and intro paragraph again: “Best Concert Crowd Photos”. You probably missed our Best Concert Photography of 2015 post. BTW, is that YOUR work on King Rock Photo!? Hmmmm …
These are marked as the best photos!? Hmmm
