After a long absence from music photography, I got an assignment to shoot a concert tonight.
Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings.
I have to get to bed (you know, day job in a few hours and all) but here’s the cool shirt the DJ was wearing.
Also, the blog is going through a bit of a revamp, so excuse the mess.
It comes as no surprise that weather doesn’t really happen in Phoenix. But when weather does happen, it tends to be a pretty inspiring sight. It can be beautiful, or it can look like The End of the World has just been angered by Sheriff Joe.
The light just screams “come take a picture of me you foo’ ” .
I ain’t no foo’
California.
What is it about you and your “coast”? Why must you have “ocean” and perfect weather? Every time I embark on a weekend trip to San Diego or Los Angeles, I wish I could just stay. I would sail on weekends, walk around Santa Monica or Venice Beach (when I found parking… actually, I would just get a bike), and go to lovely coffee shops and restaurants.
But I realize that it’s easy to say how much you love a certain place when you don’t really live there. After living there for a bit, I’m sure I would complain about traffic, parking, hipsters and small dogs. Everyone seems to drive a BMW, so I would have to get one to be accepted by my new circle of friends. And how could I afford that? My life would be too expensive for my own good, and then I would have to live a half life — life on a 50 percent discount, which I would have to purchase with my food stamps.
