Here’s another shot from the Beyond The Bookshelf festival in Connolly Books last month. This is The Former Soviet Republic aka Ian Wright playing in the bookshop. I had the camera rammed between Ian and the door with most of the audience wondering what the hell that weird contraption behind Ian was. This seems as [...]

It’s been so long since I posted a picture up here. I have some really interesting ones that I have done recently but only very slowly getting around to processing, scanning and posting them. Last night I was shooting The Gloaming from the side of the stage in Vicar Street and two weeks ago I [...]

Neil O’Connor and friends, aka the excellent Somadrone, playing in the Unitarian Church on Stephens Green a week or so ago. I had been meaning to try the photographs there for a while, and missed out on a couple of opportunties to do so over the last year, so thanks to Neil and the Skinny [...]

Sometimes things don’t work out the way they are supposed to. The photograph above is an accident, a screw-up, caused by an inadvertent double exposure. The bottom half of the frame is Washed Out, playing on the main ATP stage on the Saturday afternoon. The top half is something else entirely. I think its Caribou, [...]

On the Saturday night of ATP, while watching the fantastic Bitch Magnet in the Reds venue, I noticed a small wedge-shaped area on the right of the stage that wasn’t being used for anything. I started thinking about how good it would be to be taking photographs with the camera actually on the stage as [...]

This is Les Savy Fav playing on the first day of ATP Nightmare Before Xmas in December 2011. They played twice, kicking things off in the smaller Reds venue late afternoon, and then closing the night on the main stage at 1 in the morning or so. This photo was from the earlier set and [...]

Last month I got to do something pretty exciting. I’ve been going to the All Tomorrow’s Parties (ATP) festivals in the UK on and off for years now. For those of you who are unfamiliar this is the basic deal. ATP take over the Butlins holiday camp at Minehead, near Bristol, for a weekend (they [...]
