I'm selling four limited edition A3 prints from last summers' epic @embrace show at @ThePieceHall . All proceeds are going to @andysmanclubuk , who do a great job supporting men who live with depression. PLEASE TREAT YOURSELVES. IT'S FOR A GREAT CAUSE :)

Why I've turned down a photopass for @foofighters show in Manchester this weekend. A thread:

And this wouldn't cut so deep if I didn't genuinely love the band. But anyone - ANYONE - putting out a contract like that has no respect for photographers. We, as a collective, do some incredible work that other creatives appreciate. Sadly others don't. "There goes my hero" 👎

Honestly? F*ck that. I've spent 15 years learning my trade and spent thousands on gear, only for someone worth $330m to literally take my own work off me? Nah. And, as they'd own the copyright, legally I wouldn't be able to use the photos myself for anything.

So, @foofighters are the latest band to start presenting music photographers with ridiculous releases forms, known affectionately in the industry as "rights grabs". Here is said ridiculous contract in it's entirety:

@chrisatyeartist @foofighters Not quite right, but not far off. I'd be there as an accredited press photographer, rather being there "for them". As a condition of shooting the show for the magazine I shoot for, they want me to sign over all the rights to my work.

@superlorna69 @foofighters The "control your likeness" is kinda a moot point nowadays given how many thousands of people stood right behind the photographers are filming the show on smartphones. I also did approach their PR company to see if there was a less aggressive contract, and that was a no.

@EccyHealy @foofighters I totally take your point. My issue is with the way they are doing it - specifically point 2 in the contract, which has been added since their last tour. Controlling their image? Cool. Exploiting accredited photographers by taking full rights to their work? Not cool.

@mikejjennings I saw Chesney live once. He did a three song set that consisted of: 1. I am the one and only 2. Imagine (John Lennon cover) 3. I am the one and only (reprise) It was equal parts magical and tragic. Tragical, if you will.

@arseblog Too many lost heads in the senior team. Xhaka, Ceballos, Bellerin, Willian, Auba were all terrible. Partey, Smith Rowe, Ainsley, Nelson and Balogun would all put a shift in at least. Leno's looked a shade of himself since Emi left, too.

@bazc1982 @Drummerred @foofighters Depends. If you are shooting directly for the band/label/promoter, yes. If you are an accredited media photographer, it's at the venues discretion. But normally we're asked to leave.

Saddened to see Keighley has voted out John Grogan. Always struck me as a genuine bloke who had the Town's interests at heart. I can't imagine the town getting much worse, but I'm sure the Tories will find a way. It's a dark day for Britain - we've only ourselves to blame.
