Gavin DeGraw
Good Morning America Summer Concert Series
Bryant Park
7am

Think more ‘A Clockwork Orange’ than Gene Kelly.

Is it worth getting up at 6 in the morning to shoot Gavin DeGraw (who is not as one would expect a Country singer)? Probably not.

Is it worth standing in the pouring rain with ten grand worth of camera equipment? Definitely not!

Still, about ten of us, dressed in plastic trash bags to stay dry, were stupid enough to do just that. To make matters worse there wasn’t even a photo. Gavin sat at his piano for the entire set with the microphone directly in front of his face.

On the bright side, there was a group of wet braless dancing girls that formed their own mini Woodstock. Plus, Listerine handed out free mouthwash.

sometimes I really think we are a bunch of stupid morons for the people we go out and shoot. Has anyone ever sold Gavin DeGraw?
Why do we put ourselves thru such torture?

I'll tell you why, because some people feel that if it is happening it must be covered no matter what, no matter what conditions. - eventually, some learn-but mostly not. Try a little reason-you will feel better & yes, you will survive missing Gavin DeGraw in the rain-now if it was 'The Backstreet Boys' in the rain-that is another matter entirely!
