My Bipolar Journal - Episode 89

My Bipolar Journal – Episode 89

August 5, 2007

So, I just returned from life on the road. It's so awesome seeing new places and spending time with me boys (and gals on occasion).

Friday was a poorly attended show, the room was loud and hot as hell, but there were some dancing maniacs who jollied themselves greatly to the love songs of After Elvis. I got to meet Steve (which made too many Steve's in one room), the buyer at Uncle Pleasant's, and had many screwdrivers with him before the boys got there. I've come to the conclusion that if I should ever decide to go back into photography that I will have to call my company "Shutter Buzz" or "Great Shots for Great Shots" and require that whomever I am taking me pictures of gets me nice and buzzed prior to each show because I take phenomenal shots when I'm buzzed. The same thing happened at Whiskey Dick's with Another Tragedy except that I have phenomenal lighting to work with at Whiskey Dick's which means I don't have to be nearly as impressive. Uncle Pleasant's is definitely a place I've struggled with pictures in before, so I was quite pleased with myself.

The next day was the Harrison County Fair in Corydon, IN. Met some great people, rode some rides, got sick, ate greasy fair food and then rocked my hiney once again.

All of the bands we met were great. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. Check out 13th Age, Love Affair and Evil Engine .9.

I have lots of really dramatic thoughts as well, but I'll leave those for another time.
