Photo calls, one of my pet hates.
Not only did you have to contend with about 30 other photographers but the general public got involved as well! It was always chaos. As you can imagine Blondies fan base was huge, so it was packed to the rafters. If you turned up late. End of story.
Picture this. Our Price didn’t open the doors until the band were ready.
So you have at least 30 paparazzi one side, that included me and what seemed a million fans the other side. Doors would open, then the stampede would occur. If you were lucky you’d get to the front. I was lucky on this occasion and got close enough. The image of Chris Stein holding his camera high above his head so he could get a shot of the crowd was mirroring what I was doing. If you look carefully he’s actually looking at my camera. Of course I had no idea I’d captured this shot until I got back to the darkroom . Bit fluky. Got out of doing photocalls as soon as I could.
Please note that the paper size is always larger than the printed image.Info here.
