shivery shakes and boom bang at blue note

This show was really rad. The Shivery shakes were good enough that I went right up after the set and bought their EP and followed them “on twitter”:https://twitter.com/shiveryshakes . And then the boom bang was in fine form, as usual. Good show, good times.

cool little show at IAO

This was a cool little show at IAO- the first time I’ve seen fiber arts since being in Santa Fe, and a cool little folky combo playing live music to boot. It was a good time; thanks to “Kerry”:https://twitter.com/jane4oh5 for getting me out there.

the fisheye is a gimmick

I’ve been thinking about this a lot, and I’m pretty much over the fisheye. It really doesn’t have that much utility for image making. It has one look, and it does that all the time. There’s definitely a place for instagram-like pictures, but it’s not coming out of the SLR. After these, there are a couple more in the queue, but I’m retiring the fish o-fish-ally.

shitty awesome and some crazy dudes

This was a good show. Shitty/Awesome had some new stuff, and OBN IIIs was just out of their gourds. Good rock n’ roll, real crazy. Like, jump off the stage, mosh with the crowd, break some pint glasses, and then go on with the show.
