And with that…

30 05 2008

I draw a long sigh of relief…

All the work that needed to be done regarding gigs is now complete -

- Teen Spirit photos online (twice) and sent to bands
- Teen Spirit review done (and not sent to bands in fear of death)
- Best photos from Teen uploaded and tagged
- Buying + making food for the Vessels gig
- Arriving at the Vessels gig, and getting unnerved by nervous promoters :P
- Directing Vessels and loading in
- Soundchecking, feeding, worrying about being under 18
- Finally relaxing as the gig starts but then tensing due to me having a camera and the amount of flash being used by others with cameras putting me… yeah I’ll stop being a snob
- Watching the amazing Stray Borders
- Watching the ah-mazing Vessels
- Loading out and driving back
- Preparing breakfast at 9am after getting back at 12.30am (teenagers need more sleep!)
- Waving goodbye to Vessels (it was hard, they’re lovely guys)
- Editing through the blurred and charred-by-slow-shutter-speeds excuses for photos
- Choosing and uploading the (two!) best photos

And finally, this blog – here are the best photos starting with Teen Spirit’s

and the Vessels gig organised by The Only Alternative (my friend’s promotion company) and God Is In The TV Zine (the magazine I work for). Low low shutter speeds again as it was another 10 Feet Tall gig. Managed to make them look pretty this time…

Now! Off to revision!
