Five Guys from the Files
Okay, okay...I am going to do a current piece next week, but here is something from my digital archives.
My digital photography archives only go back a liitle over 4 years ago.
These photos are of musicians I have been lucky enough to work with in the past few years......
so here goes........
Daniel Johnston with cotton candy. This is not a digital photograph. It is a scan from slide. A magazine lost my original. A scan is all I have left, no original.
Ian Hunter from Friday of SXSW2005. A day spent with John Cale, Alejandro Escovedo, Jody Denberg & Ian Hunter. I was up close and emotional at radio station performances and a live concert.
A photo of Alejandro & Ian singing "I Wish I Was Your Mother" appeared on the cover of The Austin Chronicle's Saturday Daily edition....of course i shot it.
One of my days like no other.
Do I really have to make a link to Neil Young? No link!
The Flaming Lips have a new CD out....."At War With The Mystics".....Lotsa cool synthy and guitar tones..... .....This photo was taken at a soundcheck for an Austin City Limits taping, after which I was getting a portrait session with the Lips....it paid well...my friend Dutch Rall made a wonderful music video of me shooting them, called "GO TODD, GO!"....and the piece ran in a national COMPUTER music magazine called PLAYLIST....we are all Okies, and have one degree of seperation, as my brother, Stevo and the guys know a mutual friend in Norman, OK where they all went to OU, back in the late 70's...
