The usual weekend last weekend – out drinking and seeing bands. Thought I’d better stick some up here before I go out and do it all again this weekend…
So here’s some photos of Howling Bells and Bit By Bats from the Columbian Bar on Saturday night, Wolf & Cub and Butcher Birds from The Zoo, and Mean Streaks from Ric’s on Friday night.
More are on my flickr account here.

Busy, busy weekend.
Friday night started early with photographing six bands at Valley Fiesta in Brunswick Street Mall, before a trip up the road to The Zoo for Sleepy Jackson and The Panda Band
Saturday was more Valley Fiesta stuff, including a nice front row seat for Tex Perkins and Tim Rogers (I like this not having the normal three song limit rubbish…) before the long and arduous 20m trek to Ric’s for Butcher Birds and Little Lovers.
And Sunday was a bit more of the Valley Fiesta, but mainly Black Fag at The Shamrock with Mean Streaks, I Hate Helsinki (better known as I Heart Hiroshima) and The Frou Frou Foxes. And then some much needed sleep.
Here are a few of the photos of Sleepy Jackson and The Panda Band from Friday night. You can see more here.

After over a year of living in Brisbane I finally made it to The Tivoli. Really nice venue, lights that came in colours other than red; the only thing missing was a photo pit… Much fun was had trying to get away from the front when I decided that I was photographically spent and could sojourn to the bar to let some of the people who paid $66 stand in the front row.
The Vasco Era were really great. They played at Falls last year but managed not to see them, possibly due to recharging batteries or downloading photos onto my laptop. You can check out their stuff on their myspace site here.
A few photos below and the rest are here.
