The Script seem like one of those bands that has a #1 album that no one will own up to actually buying. Except in their case, their album went to #3.That said, they put on a pretty good show to a relatively full DAR Hall.

Lead singer Danny O’Donoghue is actually a big name over in the UK. He’s a judge on the UK version of The Voice and you can tell he’s a showman. He jumped down into the crowd not once, but twice and I almost fainted when the spotlights stayed on him. That NEVER happens. It was a real treat to get a shot like the one above.

The shoot was pretty straightforward other than that. Good lights and plenty of time to get the shots I needed. I shot this show with my usual set-up, My 24-70 on my D3 and my 70-200 on my D700.
