Bushfire

June 28, 2010

Sweated my arse off in Darmstadt’s Golden Krone to take a few shots of these guys playing at the ‘Nonstock’ warm-up. Click on the small ones below to enlarge, or check out the full set on my Flickr account over here.

Married to the Sea

March 16, 2010

My good friend Greg and his cohorts, known collectively as ‘Married to the Sea‘, rolled into Darmstadt late yesterday to play an acoustic set at a locally (in)famous and unusual venue known as the Gute Stube. It offered an ideal opportunity to bust out the camera and test out some low-light shooting of which I’ve [...]

Immergrün

February 27, 2010

I dusted off the D700 last night to take some shots of Rox’s friend’s band, Immergrün, at the Schlosskeller here in Darmstadt. It’s a pretty cool little venue but awkward to take photos, as while it’s fairly intimate there’s huge columns in the way (well, it is a cellar…) that kind of limit your options. [...]

Excellent Italian Greyhound

February 9, 2010

Unless you’re a real dog lover (or you’re ultra bored), you’ll probably want to skip to about 2:50 for the appearance of the one and only Todd Trainer, Uffizi, and the rest of Shellac. : This video was embedded using the YouTuber plugin by Roy Tanck. Adobe Flash Player is required to view the video.

Ask a music scene micro celebrity

July 16, 2007

Here’s a worthwhile read while you’re avoiding work this morning. It’s a thread started by Steve Albini on a gambling site’s message board – he’s known for being a pretty hardcore poker player – covering all aspects of his music ‘career’, including working with Nirvana, Pixies, The Jesus Lizard, and so on. I have traveled [...]

All Yesterday’s Parties

May 21, 2007

I’ll keep this short – ATP was fucking ace. Butlin’s was a real surprise (in a good way) and the lineup was unreal. I’m up for going to the next one but I’ll be amazed if the bands playing are half as decent… Highlights were definitely seeing Shellac play twice (three days if you count [...]

It’s a sign

April 20, 2007

The new Santa Rosa equipped Apple laptops can’t come quick enough for me really (click for big): I’m hoping that it’s a one-off, but as that’s the first time I’ve seen that happen in the 18 months I’ve owned the laptop it’s probably a sign of impending doom. Time to take advantage of my Applecare [...]

Malaligned

March 4, 2007

After missing them tour almost as many times as I saw Bluetip play, I finally managed to see Retisonic at the Barfly in Camden Town. They put on a good show and I managed to fire off a few photos from the front, but as it was pretty packed in there (the Barfly is fairly [...]
