I’m no fan of Bon Iver, but I did enjoy shooting late last year at the 9:30 Club. There was great light and and good sight lines, neither of which are a given at America’s best rock club. Sadly, conditions were much worse at Merriweather, where you have to try very hard to have bad lighting. The stage was cluttered with a bunch of lights they barely used during our shooting time, so there were only a few angles to shoot from. Justing also sat and played the keyboard during one of our songs, which didn’t exactly help things.
