friends at the hilo

I’m doing something I’ve long threatened to do; these are here as a nice tight edit, and there are more over in my <a href=”http://www.flickr.com/photos/photomattmills”>flickr</a>. Also, romantic disaster was there, photos and review to come. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/friends_at_the_hilo/1097/0001.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/friends_at_the_hilo/1097/0002.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/friends_at_the_hilo/1097/0005.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/friends_at_the_hilo/1097/0008.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/friends_at_the_hilo/1097/0010.jpg” alt=”Photos” />

Norman Bike against Hunger Alleycat

Not much to say except Ken deserves mad props for putting together the whole bike against hunger series… and to everyone else who organized, Pearl, Stewart, Isiah, and whoever else I’m forgetting, thanks you guys for putting together an awesome set of events; every one I went to was a good time. Now, photos:<br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0025.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0026.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0027.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0028.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0029.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0030.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0031.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0032.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0033.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0034.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0035.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/norman_bike_against_hunger_alleycat/1096/0036.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” >And last but not least, a sunset.

Romantic Disaster at HiLo

Romantic disaster is a local band that’s doing amazing things. They’ve got a great sound and a great look, the kind that even comes through when they’re all wasted and playing a quick set at an AIDS benefit show at a dive like the HiLo. In fact, it probably added to the rawness and unpredictability of the whole thing. Of course, your humble blogger was drunk off his ass, so maybe I was just responding to the visceral loudness and hotness of their lead singer. But I’ve heard them play before, when I was sober and so were they, and they’re good. Put them on your list of bands to catch, and then someday, you can be like, “I saw them in this tiny ass club in OKC. The bassist used to make my pizza.” Oh wait, that’s me. <br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/romantic_disaster_at_hilo/1095/0018.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/romantic_disaster_at_hilo/1095/0012.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/romantic_disaster_at_hilo/1095/0014.jpg” alt=”Photos” />

state fair photos

So I went to the fair saturday night…. insanity. The only time I see this many people in one place is when I’m not in oklahoma. But a fun time too, I got my annual fair lemonade and saw the slap chop guy (look at my twitpic, I’m too lazy to repost that one). By the way, can you tell I love my new wide angle way too much?<br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0012.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0013.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0014.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0015.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0016.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0017.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0018.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0019.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0020.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0021.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” ></span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0022.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” >Katie, Erin, and some other people I only half know on the Fireball ride. </span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0023.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br /><span class=”caption” >Also, Tommy and Deepak.</span><img src=”https://images.matt.pictures/state_fair_photos/1099/0024.jpg” alt=”Photos” /><br /><br />Ok, back to room cleaning.
