A local coffee shop (and by local I mean right below my floorboards) every year has a week long anniversary bash. 20 bands, 6 days, lots of beer / coffee. This is my second year photographing. I only shot 3 days, but got drunk enough for 6.
A couple notes:
- all the shots have a yellow cast from the spotlights. (the owner said the other colors were too dark)
- if you think they are too dark, you need to calibrate your monitor. plain and simple. no really, take 5 minutes and do it proper. alright, alright, some are fairly dark i admit, but if your monitor was calibrated you'd still be able to see them.
The first band I shot was raggae.
They finished their set with a full band cow-bell solo.
The next band was plain old rock.
Next was a hip-hop band.
The last act that night was another rock band.
Whose bassist got very drunk.
A bluegrass band.
Another bluegrass.
I was able to splice two together for a full band panorama.
The last act I shot was rock with a tinge of country.
It wasn't until after looking at my shots did I realize the drummer from the previous band played with this guy as well. Most of which he was improvising, very well I might add.
All said I was disappointed over last years photos. But then I didn't try nearly as hard either. So I have only myself to blame. Hope you enjoyed.
Oh and dialup users? May you rest in peace.
