Parklife 2010 @ The Riverstage, 25.09.2010

First published on Collapse Board Parklife is one of life’s musical guilty pleasures, perhaps the guiltiest.  It’s like a one day adventure into another world, somewhere I’d never normally go and I always enjoy it, a lot more than most photographers who complain about it year-on-year, and yet still put their hand up to cover […]


HEALTH + The Death Set + DZ @ Woodland, 15-01-11

It’s interesting reading what I wrote about the last time HEALTH played in Brisbane towards the end of last February.  Writing that “…you can’t help but think that in five years time it’ll sound really dated.  Time will of course tell but it’s hard to tell whether their primary fan base will have moved on […]


Lost & Found Festival @ Rosie’s, 07-03-10

By the time I’d been signed up to cover the Lost Weekend Festival it had already been relocated from Ivory Rocks, a 45 minutes drive west from Brisbane, to The Riverstage and downscaled from a three day camping festival to a two day festival in the heart of the city. Having looked forward to the […]


DZ @ The Birmingham Hotel, Melbourne 17-09-09

Went and caught a couple of shows when I was working down in Melbourne in September, including DZ‘s Thursday night gig at the Birmingham Hotel on Johnston Street.  It’s always interesting to see how well Brisbane bands do when they go out of town.  For a while it looked like it might be a really […]


Big Sound 2009 – Wednesday

For a few days back in September I got to play at being a proper bona fide photographer for a few days when I was commissioned by the organisers to be part of a three-person team of photographers covering the Big Sound conference in Brisbane.  The work involved covering the panel discussions and also all […]


I Heart Hiroshima + DZ @ The Zoo

Another chance to catch up with DZ, this time away from the small stage of The Troubadour, supporting I Heart Hiroshima at The Zoo.  I had hoped that the larger venue, larger stage and better lighting might make it an improved photographic experience but it ends up being almost the opposite, with the band being […]


Philadelphia Grand Jury + DZ @ The Troubadour

I put in to cover this show more for another chance to see DZ play as opposed to getting to photograph the headline act.  They had their strobe out in force again so took the opportunity to play around with long exposures again, as I had when I’d seen them before.  I was less lazy […]


DZ @ The Troubadour

A friend asked me a few week ago who my favourite new Brisbane band was.  I replied that I didn’t really have one; most the Brisbane bands I like have been around for at least a couple of years and when you become more ‘successful’ in photographing bands, getting the opportunity for higher profile gigs, you sadly lose touch […]
