Well it's clear I don't know how to shoot bands. Shot plenty of DJ's
but never a band. Still, it seems like there must have to be a fair
amount of light to shoot the C-7070 with only ISO 400 and 2.8.
Would it be reasonable to put colored gels over the flashes so as to try
and maintain the "mood" of the light?
