Although it was getting late on Saturday night at The Alley in Sparks, NV, Black Rock City Allstars took the stage in a fine fashion, unleashing an onslaught of deadly dubstep beats mixed with a fierce barrage of MC’s twisting words around the minds of audience members like a tightly coiled iPhone cable.
Every song in their setlist was comprised of a different lineup on-stage and there was no shortage of energy in the room. In fact, this group impressed me and fully exceeded all expectations.
While not every MC who got his or her 15 minutes of fame during the evening is included in today’s coverage, I feel like have brought a wide range of photos from this explosive opening set for Digital Underground, which is sure to keep you engaged all the way through to the end.
The addition of a Beats Antique-esque bellydance routine definitely kept up the Black Rock City (Burning Man) appearance and inclusion of female talent from various local talent (MC, singing) rounded out the set quite well.
If you’re ever on the edge of whether or not to check out Black Rock City Allstars, we here at I Shoot Reno urge you to make the jump. A word to the wise: Make sure to bring your earplugs if you plan on standing anywhere near the speakers. They like to play it loud.
Much like Digital Underground’s headlining set, an ISO range of 1600 to 6400 was applied, depending on certain lighting conditions, as well as aperture and shutter speed constants of f/2.8 and 1/250th of a second, respectively.
While not shooting with the Nikon D7000 + AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED lens combination, the original Nikon camera strap allowed the ‘intimidator’ sized lens to rest safely atop of the Kata KT DW-495 man (camera) purse snapped in place around my waist.
