Alicia Keys

So Alicia Keys is totally not what I usually cover for earplugsrequired.com but I thought it would be a cool show to shoot. Why not? I love the production of the R&B artists. They know how to do a concert. There is no harm is asking to cover a show, worst thing is I get the answer "no" but at least I tried.

Well I got the Alicia Keys/Robin Thicke show in Baltimore. Had first two songs of each artist. The barricade was narrow and the stage was high so a bit tough of a shoot. Plus for Alicia, the intro which was all video screens was included as one of the songs. No complaining here - sorry..

Alicia started out in a cage that she broke out from and this was hard to shoot as the stage was high, there was quite a bit of smoke/fog and there were bright white lights.. All in all I am quite happy with what I came away with!
