Diary - December 12
Been in Chicago the last couple of days - Aerosmith are home in Boston...
December 10
Get up at 3.45 am. Fly on the first flight to Chicago. Shoot the dawn flying out of Los Angeles - beautiful clouds.
Arrive to a snowbound Chicago - It Is Cold, Really Cold, Arctic Cold...
By 6pm Chicago is having the worst snow storm I've ever been in. The taxi I take to the United Center is sliding all over the road. The first person I see is Steven who is very happy I have a Nikon Digital camera - he now thinks I've joined the 21st century...
Shoot Steven working out, digitally, and cheated and shot some real black and white. Shoot the band walking to the stage with Donny Shiteman walking in the middle of them - pretending he doesn't see me taking the pictures. The show is hard to shoot, very backlit and not very camera-friendly with two huge penis ramps going out each side of the stage. Spend the encores on stage, Steven telling me to go right in the middle - even introduced me to the crowd... Charlie Hernandez, the production manager, is pulled on and sung Happy Birthday to by Steven and the crowd. Good show, everyone in a good mood.
