I turned the light master-board over to Billy so I could go down front to shoot.

Morrison, looking like a wasted angel with his shoulder-length dark curls and half-closed eyes, hung on the microphone stand as if it were the only thing keeping him vertical. Several times he nearly collapsed into the audience. A small group behind me took bets on whether this was the night Morrison would keel over and die. At the end of the set, his band-mates led him off stage.
