It’s been such a long time since we associated rain with fun. Even a little rain can trigger a bit of fear. Sometimes I try to recall playing under the rain when I was a kid and bravely taking in the sound of thunder. I wonder where that all went. 

I’m posting this now because it’s one of the few moments I’ve encountered shooting in the rain and leaving with a good memory. We didn’t have a good memory of the rain again fairly recently so it’s great to remember this because I was running around chasing after awesome moments.

The greatest rock and roll events, even if producers think it’s a logistical nightmare include the ones that happen in the rain. I mean, take Glastonbury for example, or Fuji Rock Fest. It takes a certain kind of fan to brave the weather, a true rock and roll fan at that. 

Mud is still on my shoes until now, because everytime I see it I remember how much fun this was. Although partly in reality, I just have no time to clean them (I try to wear them out whenever it rains so it gets instant wash LOL). 

I must say it’s difficult to shoot in the rain and thankfully it stopped later on (because I really needed to do my job well) but of course when you’re all dirty and your socks are all wet, you barely notice if it is still raining.
