On tour with FAULTLINES Part 2
Day Two: Hull, O'riley's
After the first date on this run went off with a bang, the guys were buzzing to keep the good energy going. Sadly Lee had to be elsewhere for day 2 and 3, Hence the lack of Lee in the photos. O'rileys is a fair size venue. A much larger stage that Subside the night before. I shot a load-in video to push out the day of the show (see below). Then on to usual things of set up merch and try and find some food. KFC was today's grub.
Behind a false wall near the back was a boxing gym area with a full-size ring. This had to be taken advantage of for a few shots and clips. I took Faultlines and Invisions back there before they played, as the guys wanted a few funny photos of Ben and Ryan gloving up.
The show itself was insane. Good stage size with loads of space for great angles and shots. Great crowd response and didn't get wiped out by a mosher (go Charlie!! ) Also the stage lighting was great for photos. Probably got some of my favourite shots of this run at this venue. Both Faultlines and Invisions tore it up. All in all a great second night.
After load out, we drove back to Leeds stopping off at a Mcdonalds at a services somewhere. By this point, we all had a few to drink (Except for Sie as he's driving). We loaded ourselves we like two meals worth each. All made out way back to the van when Chris wasn't feeling the best. I have never seen sick stack the way it did, Chris felt fine and dandy after haha, Lad. Benji crawled back into his bunk and I passed out in my seat waiting to arrive back at Chris's. All in all the tour was sick so far, Like my pun ;)
Check the videos and photos below, Look forward to Part 3 in Leeds.
