2016 highlight of the year
Getting to meet Robert Smith of The Cure and then being able to photograph them the next night. I have never been so nervous, yet so happy before. I couldn't speak for an hour after meeting him (only thing that could actually shut me up!). Also getting to photograph many of my favourite bands this year :)
prediction for 2017
More bands from the '90s will tour - hopefully bringing back good old rock and roll (well - '90s style rock/grunge!) Hopefully as well, there will be a new band that will turn everything on its head - just like Nirvana did all those years ago.
