It all depends on how it is organized... the venue was a theatre in a city called Brasov, and not some huge festival
Area, so it was easier to wait for them to get out of the backstage, since there was no where out but by passing through the main hallway... The band came especially to Romania for the gig (= Transylvania, Carpathians, forests, Dracula etc...very kvlt to play there), it wasn t a part of a tour and there were no opening bands - everybody came exclusively for Arcturus. It was the same thing with
Agalloch 2 years ago.
Somehow the organizers managed to convince them to come to an afterparty in a metal club there, where all people that attended the concert were invited (entrance was granted with the concert bracelet). So the whole band mingled with a
Horde of fans, and took photos, autographed stuff etc.
So basically, organizers can make a big difference
@ryan - I have a laughing stock of a Canon A530, so it s just an old digital (5 mpx),
Nothing fancy. I don t feel like I have to be too careful with it - if it breaks, it breaks, newer and better technology would replace it.
When in Danger or in doubt,
