I have to be in the mood to do anything, including blog. The only thing I want to do all the time is see live music and photograph something with emotion or energy. I have done both of those things to excess lately, but you wouldn't know that because I am horrible at updating!
I am going to go back to the first adventure then post again with the more recent ones, I hope you all can keep up!
Timmy and I along with our friend Jerry took off June 10th for 2 nights in Greensboro, NC with our friends from
Holy Ghost Tent Revival (if you read this blog, you know I love this band and these boys! wonderful people!) We got to NC around 6 and headed straight to a BBQ at the HGTR house. It was so nice to see everyone in that setting and to meet many of the guys friends and girl friends =] I enjoyed it alot, especially the part where they played music on the porch until the neighbors came out and yelled as us to knock it off.. opps!
We spent the night at our buddy Kyle's house as always and had some laughs.. as always.. hah I was so tired by the time I went to bed that I slept in an incredibly awkward position all night.. opps again! The next day we got up and went to brunch at the best little diner in Greensboro - Smith Street! YUM-O biscuits as big as your head! then we went to Kingpin Tattoo to get our moustache tattoos touched up! (yes, i do have this) it looked great for about 2 days then as it healed it peeled off partially again! booo!!! i think the finger is just a hard place to have a tattoo! I hate that it doesnt heal well on my hand, I will have to get it done sometime when I can not do dishes and get my hands wet or something.. i dont know! grr!
We had arranged to do a little impromptu photo shoot with the HGTR guys and although as the best laid plans go- some things didn't work out to plan, nonetheless I got some wonderful shots of the guys for their promotional use.. maybe you will see some of my work in an album someday, that would be pretty wonderful!
We headed over to visit with Anne of
Red Canary , my favorite textile artist and mother of 2 sweet little boys that I adore. You may remember the photo of Anne and Angus playing pool from an earlier post. Adorable!
The Blind Tiger is where the HGTR show was that night and it was so much fun as always.. I got to test out my new 1.8 low light lens and I am very pleased!
& the Moneynotes played as well, one of my newest addictions.. check them out, go. do it.
We slept and headed back to the WV the next day... it was a whirlwind but as always, a wonderful time. I love tha state, those people and these photos!
