My band Paper Fleet played a show last saturday and Bruar Falls in Brooklyn, and I took some pictures of the bands we played with. I didn’t take any pictures of myself while I was playing.
Then we played. Like I said. I didn’t take pictures of us.
Then Hollows played. They’re from Chicago. They were rad. Go listen to them on myspace, check them out live if you can and buy their record. I did. It rocks.
Lastly was Loneliest Monk. I will be honest. When I heard they were a duo featuring cello, I wasn’t expecting to stay awake for long, but they really won everyone over with their uptempo dynamic sound. Some said they were great except the drummer’s mask. Some said the mask was the best part. I will stay neutral on the subject of the mask and let you decide for yourself.
Here’s some footage of my friends’ band Bloodweiser. The 3-d effect is also difficult to see because of the low light. Again all of my videos can viewed by crossing your eyes, or clicking through to youtube for more viewing options.
Here’s some 3-D footage of an Edison Amberola Cylinder player I picked up in Iowa last year. If you don’t know anything about these, they are pretty neat. They play cylinder shaped records without electricity. Cylinders were the first popular form of records, and Edison manufactured them up until about 1929 or so, at which they had already been replaced in popularity replaced by flat 78 rpm records.
My Brother is in a cover band in Iowa called 8T8
Did I mention the Fujicamera can shoot movies? 640 by 480. pretty decent although not HD. And the youtube compression makes it look worse. oh well. This video was shot in low light so the 3D effect is kinda hard to see. you can view it here by crossing your eyes, or click on the link for more viewing options (like anaglyph) on the youtube page.
