oh, and an added bonus today!

I made this from a bunch of the pictures of our band jumping from yesterday.

From left to right: Nathan - Piano, Mat - Percussion/Lyrics, Gianni - Guitar/Some Percussion.

We're going to record again in two months, then we'll have some really good music on our band's page, but until then, it's just our early recordings, and they're not that good, so, In a couple months when we have some good songs up, I'll probably mention it again, until then, if you're in the Austin, TX area, come to one of our shows! We've been told we're a lot of fun to watch play live.

Thanks!

photoshoot?


My band did a sort of "Photoshoot" yesterday at practice. I took the pictures. This is one of them. Don't look at it as art, but rather as what it is, a portrait of musicians, I think you'll enjoy it more if you do. (I'm the one on the right with the tambourine by the way)

A Truly Visual Medium...

I really liked how of Montreal made everything associated with going to see a band perform live into a truly visual art medium. Tons of make-up, crazy light shows, awesome cartoon loops playing on some projection screens, and this:

Their bass drum was even decked out for the occasion.

it was beautiful.

Final Fantasy!

Yesterday, along with tons of pictures, I also took tons of video. Only two had such bad sound quality I couldn't upload them. I realized later that it was the bass that was messing up my camera microphone, good thing Final Fantasy has a high pitched voice, and high pitched instrumentation.



An Actor's Revenge (Destroyer Cover) (The sound quality's pretty bad on this one)



An Actor's Revenge (Destroyer Cover) with Cadence Weapon and Daniel Bejar (aka Destroyer himself) (better sound quality, shaky video)



The CN Tower Belongs To The Dead (poor sound quality and shaky video)



He Poos Clouds [Just the second half] (One of the better quality sound recordings, the videos kinda shaky, but whatever...)



Hope you enjoyed them all!

Fun... CUBED!

I went to Fun Fun Fun Fest on Saturday. It was amazing. I can't even put into words the awesomeness that was of Montreal, let alone, the awesomeness of seeing "Final Fantasy" "MGMT" (pronounced as the letters, not "Management") "Okkervil River" "Brothers and Sisters" "White Denim" and "of Montreal" all in one day.

well, needless to say I captured a cornucopia of pictures, and here is just a taste. This is probably the best one I took of the bands, but I have some that I think are better of other stuff. Balloons, trashcans, etc. This one was taken when "of Montreal" was playing their grand finale song "Requiem For O.M.M.2" as you can see from the pictures, they wear make-up, costumes, and have a mind-blowing light show. They turn the act of seeing a live band into a true visual medium of art. I think this picture is pretty much the closest I came to capturing what it was like. It doesn't even meet halfway though. The show was just... wow.
