Sequins. Lots of sequins.

Rehearsing six new shows for the boat this week. Obviously I don't want to cause an unmanagable rush on the company booking office, so I won't give away too much about what we're working on. Let's just say it involves world-class diction and the Mr. Ed theme song.

Intervision 5

Pictures of a band called Intervision 5. I'm doing a CD cover for them, and took some pictures while they were recording at Kung Fu Bakery. Here's Paul.

Bass player. I forget his name right this second. Slightly demented.

Jon, the drummer.

I was just taking pictures and he suddenly went crazy and grabbed the jar of nuts.

Paul adopts a zen-like posture while listening to the last take, making the Anka-like barrage of obscenities that follows all the more shocking. The man is a tyrant in the control room.

Laying down bass tracks.

Paxselin! Paxselin! Paxselin! Paxselin! Paxselin!

OK, one more. Bill Athens at the Red & Black.

More shots of Paxselin. This first one was taken at the Tugboat with 1600 Neopan in the OM. I've got tell you I am SICK of the crappy lighting in these clubs.
