Mogwai + Mick Turner @ The Tivoli, 04.03.2015

I’ve seen Mogwai a number of festivals but only for a handful of songs before needing to go and photograph another band on a different stage at the other end of the festival site. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a complete set, which makes tonight a special event. It’s disappointing that the lights are […]


Splendour Not So Splendid

Following on from the demise of Rave, and the loss of 80% of my photo opportunities, yesterday came the news that I was dreading; that my photo pass for Splendour In The Grass, which I was covering for Rave and which was the only confirmed gig I had left in my diary, had been revoked […]


All Tomorrow’s Parties – The Nightmare Before Xmas 2009 – Part 5

Into the home straight of MBV’s Nightmare Before Xmas weekend, although in reality it’s just the end of the first three days of the ATP adventure, with four days of In Between Days and the long weekend of Ten Years of ATP still to come. Again, no notes were written and it’s a long time ago to try and drag […]


Dirty Three @ The Tivoli, 22.03.2012

Tonight’s support act, Lost Animal, are already playing when I get to The Tivoli. There’s no one in the photo pit and I don’t check to see whether it’s still in the first three songs. They continue to play for a good while afterwards so maybe I should have checked as  I might have been OK to […]


All Tomorrow’s Parties December 2009 – 10 Years of ATP – Part 2

The line-up for the Saturday of Ten Years of ATP is the high point of the weekend, the pinnacle of the ten days I will have spent at Butlins Minehead on this trip, the ultimate in ATP-ness, boasting a Pavilion stage line-up of Afrirampo, Dirty Three, Battles and The Breeders, interspersed with the likes of […]


ATP – In Between Days 2009: Fuck Buttons + Dirty Three + Josh T Pearson, 09-12-2009

File under ‘Better Late Than Never (Maybe): Part 2’. Day 2 of In Between Days is easily the best day of the four, mainly because getting to see Dirty Three play close up on a tiny stage in a tiny venue (a Western theme bar to boot) with 100 other people is always going to […]


Mick Turner + Opals & Pooles + Ghost Notes @ The Hangar 23-06-10

Up until tonight I’d never been to The Hangar, although had been close a few weeks ago.  When I say close I actually mean having dinner in the Lebanese restaurant across the road before deciding that I was too exhausted and getting a taxi back for a more relaxing Saturday night in front of the TV.  […]


Dirty Three @ The Tivoli 25-01-10

Back in the good old days of film cameras, one of the harder things to keep a check on, in addition to whether any of the photos you’d taken were actually any good, was how many photos you’d taken of each band member.  Many a frustrating Sunday morning was spent developing films in the darkroom […]


Laughing Clowns @ The Tivoli 25-01-10

I don’t think I’ve ever given a support band a separate post, normally just including the headliner and all the support band musings and photos all in the one post.  But tonight Ed Kuepper hinted that this might be the last time that we get to see Laughing Clowns and as it’s been such a […]


Photos in Rolling Stone Australia RS700

I’ve got a couple of photos in this month’s Rolling Stone Australia (RS700, The First Annual Awards Issue), one of the Dirty Three and one of The Drones.  Both photos are from All Tomorrow’s Parties at Minehead from last December; the Dirty Three photo from the Inbetween Days festival, when they played an amazing, unrehearsed, […]


ATP Mt Buller: Part 3

As with recent shows over the last couple of years, tonight’s Silver Apples set is performed as a solo set by Simeon Coxe.  Similar to Fuck Buttons he’s got his array of vintage-looking instruments laid out on the table in front of him, but unlike Fuck Buttons on the Bourke Street Stage, the smaller and lower Amphitheatre Stage, […]


All Tomorrow’s Parties – Mt Buller: Friday Quick Round-Up

Back in Brisbane after an amazing weekend at Mt Buller. I had planned on doing a quick round-up of Friday yesterday but the internet place on the mountain wasn’t letting me upload. So here’s some stuff from Friday and hopefully I’ll be able to do a quick round up of Saturday’s events tomorrow, before I […]


Coming Soon: All Tomorrow’s Parties @ Mount Buller

Got confirmed yesterday to go and take photos at All Tomorrow’s Parties at Mount Buller, down in Victoria. It’s going to be awesome. Also going as a punter to the show at the Brisbane Riverstage, to get an extra fix of Spiritualized whilst they’re in the country.  And look to replace my two well-worn glow-in-the-dark Spiritualized t-shirts…  […]
