Better Than Crabs

High Holy Days played Friday night at the Speak Easy following Bondar (you can see Bondar’s photo post here). Unfortunately about half the audience left after Bondar’s set which made the bar seem thinner than it was.
I was sort of dismayed however when High Holy Days stopped their set after about thirty minutes of [...]

This past Friday local band Bondar opened up for High Holy Days at the Speak Easy. Once again being the documentor of local music I was there to take in the event with my trusty Canon 20D and once again I decided to shoot with just the Canon 50mm lens and not any other. [...]

Now that the weekend is upon us I’m listing a few goals I’d like to set out for myself on things I’d like to accomplish. Moreso as a way for me to put them out there and force myself to get them done.

release top secret site — currently it’s almost there, I need to [...]

Startlefish played the Speak Easy on Saturday night to a small but receptive audience. I took this time out to experiment with a different lens. I usually shoot with my Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 but for this show I only used my Canon 50mm f/1.8.

I liked the fact that with the set focal length [...]

Last night was night two of the Soo Coustic CD release. I was more familiar with the majority of artists on night two so enjoyed that music that much more. Above is Frank Deresti doing his own thing, it’s not often that you’ll see a Frank show but he’s one hell of a [...]

Last night was night one of the CD release for Soo Coustic. Soo Coustic is a compilation CD featuring a plethora of musicians from Sault Ste. Marie who play a variety of styles but all the songs are done acoustically.

I was at the event for about two hours last night and was able to [...]

Jodi Alton and the newly titled band Friends With Benefits played Loplops on Friday night. Craig reviewed his own show on his own site so I won’t go through the process here. I was however in attendance shooting some pictures. I really need to do this more often again as I’m losing [...]

I said it was coming and here it is; the photos for Bondar live at the Speak Easy from Saturday night are now up and ready for your viewing pleasure. It’s another quick set of photos as I had to leave before their set was complete with prior engagements on Sunday morning.

These guys put on [...]

On Saturday night Terminal played the second set of a three set night at the Speak Easy. I was there mainly to shoot for Bondar but thought I’d get some pre-shoot photos in just to get settings set etc. Okay I’m talking like I know what I’m talking about now so we’ll continue [...]

Seeing as the ball playoffs this weekend have been rained out I decided to catch up on my Digg reading and found a great video in the video section of the site.

This is a cover of Outkast’s “Hey Ya” performed on an acoustic guitar and I think [...]
