Just thought I'd update with a list of fun things I'm shooting and everything photo-related between now and August, because I'm so excited!!!
- Guitar Hero Championships @ The Evelyn last night, bloody difficult to shoot. Bad lighting, all the players were obviously in deep concentration thus there was nothing to work with, and the crowd were quite stubborn when it came to not getting out of my way and insisting on crowding the table where my equipment was sitting with empty glasses and jugs of beer.
- Deep Roots Festival @ The Espy tomorrow night - TZU, The Red Eyes, Mia Dyson + Heaps more... REALLY looking forward to this one!!! Shooting for FasterLouder ... am beginning to think they like me!
- My very first b-side boys shoot on Saturday with the lovely young Blake... I'm quite nervous about it. I'm very nervous actually, but his amazing eyes should compensate for crap photos :P nah it should go okay.
- Spod @ The Old Bar 31/05/2008 - due to his ridiculous lack of shows in Melbourne I still haven't introduced Mr Nikon to a Spod show, it should be interesting. Plus he's fucking awesome and I can't wait to see him again after so long!
- Zombie Shuffle - a sort of "protest" being held in the city where everyone dresses up like a zombie and wanders around Melbourne chanting "What do we want? Brains! When do we want them? Brains!" - it should be hilarious and make for some interesting photos.
- Shihad @ The Hifi Bar 14/06/2008 - I don't have a pass for this but the Hifi is piss easy to shoot at. Will hopefully get better shots than I did when they played at The Corner Hotel.
- My wonderful writer friend Beth is interviewing me about b-side boys in a few weeks, possibly for the magazine Frankie... we'll see!
- Grinspoon @ The Hifi Bar 26/06/2008 - managed to get a pass for this one. I don't like their new stuff very much but I think it'll be cool to see them again after so long. I can't even remember seeing them, I just know I did because I went to a Big Day Out they played at and I was a fan then.
- And the last thing in my diary.... is the almighty..... Splendour in the Grass. I didn't get a pass but I did get a free weekend ticket and will be taking my old Fujifilm camera so I should still get some semi-decent photos, at least of the crowd and the antics.
I'm sure lots of things will come up between now and Splendour. My portfolio is just getting bigger and bigger! The desire to make money from it still hasn't hit either, I'm in it for the luuuurve. For now.
Oh I am so god damn tired. I was up at 5am for work yesterday, then was at the Guitar Hero gig all night and didn't get to bed until 1:30am. I've been having way too many late nights, argh, getting old...
I'm not exactly going to get time to rest this weekend, if I do find some spare time I'll be doing housework :( Damn housewife duties!
Anyway I best get back to these invoices... wheeeeyyyyy...

lulz srsly dude congrats this is all very exciting!
Ooh what bands are you working for these days??
how fun. we are so cool. 4 realz.
I'm thoroughly excited for you! There's so much awesome stuff going on!
I can't write much because i'm at work (and have been slacking off all week, so i have to make up for it today!), but just letting you know if you want an extra compact camera (if nothing else then for extra storage space) for splendour you could probably borrow mine. It's not an SLR obviously but it's 10 mega-pixel and very handy (good for filming too, and just general shots), and i've got a couple of 2-gig cards too (heck if they'd fit your camera you could borrow them instead/too). Anyways just thought i'd put the offer out there, i know how quickly you ran out of space at falls! ;)
Gotta dash!

Anyways yes i'm at work so i better get back to it, the slacking off today has been pretty intense.
