tinnitus photography

yeah, i got approved about 12 hr prior to the concert! they had strange shooting restrictions too; there were only 4 shooters who were broken into two groups; group 1 shot songs 4 and 5, and i was in the 2nd group which shot songs 9 and 10. weird. unfortunately, she was much more animated during 'taut' (song 6) and the new title track (song 11). it's funny...i'd read that Howe was playing the NYC show, but didn't really see any shots from it. here's the best shot i got from 'Giovanni' and i'm not sold that it is Howe...but then again, i haven't seen him play boston since _Chore of

i saw it just under two weeks ago...fabulous stuff. here's the relevant scribblings and shutter actuation evidence: PJ Harvey + John Parish more: http://narlus.zenfolio.com/p481237828/

even if you aren't a GBV fan i highly recommend watching this...one of the best rock documentaries i've ever seen.

i recorded this but haven't watched it yet. i know they were filming during the Boston performance i saw last year.

no, i would put stoner rock and doom into different categories. doom is much slower...listen to early melvins for a taste of where that came from. stoner rock is definitely more 'rock' in its execution. back on prog, i think i am gonna go see Van Der Graaf Generator this summer.

err, my mind went on me...nevermind.

it's really funny that @ the boston show, i met up w/ a friend at intermission and he made the call between becky and shara's vocals and the wilson sisters. then they pull that one out! i wasn't familiar w/ _Hazards of Love_ but enjoyed it quite a bit. i would have really liked to have heard more RH though; his headlining show in boston back in May was cancelled due to laryngitis. i saw him + Venus 3 in '07 and it was fabulous, including an encore w/ 'ballad of a thin man,' 'see emily play' and a beatles' song i can't recall right now. this was a soundboard shoot which also kinda irke

pretty great show, though the opening slot was dismally short @ 30 minutes. http://www.prefixmag.com/reviews/the-decemberists/the-hazards-of-love/26692/ more photos of both bands: http://narlus.zenfolio.com/p518658217 http://narlus.zenfolio.com/p298071900

i just got confirmed to shoot the Sunday show...haven't seen Phish since '89 @ the Paradise. never a big fan; the only reason i've been to either show is because of friends. still, should be fun to shoot @ fenway.

i shot the tour opener last week: photo gallery

i just checked the local summer show here (in Lowell) and kids under 8 get in free. i might end up taking my 7 and 9 year old boys.

playing the entirely sublime 'east virginia blues' version that Jay played on w/ Roger McGuinn...couldn't find a youtube version. it's such a cliche to say that people die too young, but i can't possibly see how this wouldn't apply...i hope his friends and family find solace in the impact his music made on so many people he never met.

i went to this last night...awesome time! i'll put the link up to my shots/mini-review when it's live.

good choice in avatars, Carl

who included the 'popular' qualifier? not me.

this thread is turning pointless because there is no way to objectively quantify 'music quality.'

i just found some tourdates on brooklynvegan and they played NYC two weeks ago, but didn't make it up to boston. shakes fist angrily.

obviously Coldplay likes his songwriting talent.

i shot the Pogues when they played in March, but the lighting was rather dim and it was hard to see what sort of condition Shane's mouth was in. he did have his own bottle, though. more http://narlus.zenfolio.com/p1037121631

where did they play? i've only seen Ghost once (Terrastock V) and they were great. i did see Batoh w/ Helena from Espers last year, and that was really fun.

you've got it all wrong. there is more talent out there than ever before.
