Live Music

This past week's storm ruined a couple of shoots I had scheduled. I was able to rescheduled both sessions for April. So no new pictures to post today. But I do have something to post.

I am a huge live music fan. I enjoy concerts very much but what I really like is smaller intimate shows. Anyone remember Manhattans in Colorado Springs? It's closed now. I seen some very cool bands there a couple of my favorite ones were The Nixon's and Seven Mary Three. Or shows at the Joint in Las Vegas. Just smaller venues sometimes make the shows better.




Anyway I ran across a website called Live From Daryl's House. The Daryl is Daryl Hall from the 80's band Hall and Oats. Remember them? You member. Member. The website is basically a show. Daryl invites musicians and/or bands to his place in up state New York. They get together and play some music. Daryl has his band there and they work with the visiting artist on their songs. The current show up is with Matt Nathanson who has the hit song "Come On Get Higher". I will definitely be using this song for an up come engagement session slide show. I think its perfect for that type of slide show. Other artist have been Gym Class Hero's and Finger Eleven. Take a look at the website its like being in the same room with the musicians and watching them play. Very cool and intimate.

If you haven't noticed I do like music. Especially when its played to my images. I'm bias. I really like to hear what song a newly married couple picked for their first dance. Now since I'm at a lot of weddings I hear the same songs over and over. Not that there's anything wrong with it but I think its just so cool when a couple has a song that's more theirs so to speak. A unique song or one that is not played out.
