Some city centre roadworks and a lack of nearby parking meant I arrived at the Ritz with about 4 seconds to spare before KT took to the stage. Ms Tunstall has had a bit of a sabbatical recently. After releasing two acclaimed albums, she literally took the money and ran, taking a trip round the world and generally enjoying the life that fame and fortune grants. In fact, her third song was one written while travelling on a boat in the Arctic with &#8220;a load of scientists and a load of musicians&#8221; (sounds like a cool trip!), showing that her time away wasn&#8217;t totally squandered.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily for me following my late arrival, the lighting was excellent and I didn&#8217;t have to worry too much. The main problem was the 3 other photographers in the pit, getting in each others way- all part of the job though! And once again my photo-pass got me thrown out of the building after the allocated first 3 songs- I&#8217;m none to happy about the frequency of this happening!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/garyb_manchester\/5121384586\/\" title=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10 by Gary @ GB Multimedia, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4083\/5121384586_cd1876aa9a.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" alt=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/garyb_manchester\/5120782103\/\" title=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10 by Gary @ GB Multimedia, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1131\/5120782103_56b1612a45.jpg\" width=\"478\" height=\"500\" alt=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/garyb_manchester\/5120782565\/\" title=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10 by Gary @ GB Multimedia, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4018\/5120782565_00cbb95d79.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"348\" alt=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/garyb_manchester\/5121385848\/\" title=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10 by Gary @ GB Multimedia, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1408\/5121385848_0e6db8577d.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"332\" alt=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/garyb_manchester\/5120783095\/\" title=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10 by Gary @ GB Multimedia, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm5.static.flickr.com\/4092\/5120783095_d6fd6f8df4.jpg\" width=\"332\" height=\"500\" alt=\"KT Tunstall, Manchester, 21\/10\/10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Occasionally I arrive at a gig in good time, get to meet my fellow photographers who are there, find out who&#8217;s shooting for what publications\/agencies.
