Awesome local band Saintseneca played Carabar last weekend. And here are some pictures of the very dark concert.

I arrived to the show late because of a final (who holds their final at 8pm? Looking at you Art Hist department!) so I had to shoot from the sides. Still a great show! Gogol Bordello is always fun. It wasn’t until after the show when I learned about the lawsuit. Ha, oops.
Either way, lawsuit or no lawsuit and despite having just seen them in May at Nelsonville, (which looking back I guess I never blogged those pictures here, but Paste Magazine did!) it was a great show. And pictures!

SXSW 2013 Amanda Palmer Ninja Gig
Where do I even start? I was debating attending the ninja gig at the Scottish Rite but decided to hike over last second.
Amanda “Fucking” Palmer is well known for putting on “ninja” pop up gigs around a town where she is playing. This ninja gig was put together in five hours complete with multiple bands, a panel (This is Southby, after all) all interspersed with AFP solo pieces. All work was volunteer and tickets were free.
The panel included volunteers from the audience, filmmakers, members of the bands and Amanda herself. Topics discussed included the music industry, getting scheduled at SXSW (or being cancelled behind your back by a crook booker), crowdfunding and Amanda’s TED talk, and something that struck a cord with me, being a woman in the modern day… the frustrations about being taken seriously as a female and how to use that fact as an advantage.
Every day I am quickly covering my SXSW experience but I thought this needed a separate piece.
Because I am better at taking pictures than writing words, here was the Ninja Gig. A picture blog.
This dog was crowned Bongo.
many more!

SXSW Wednesday wrap up
What a busy day! Again and as always I started the morning with a clear plan through the day which was immediately destroyed. Thankfully my first planned event was not something I had to wake up at 8am for (I’m looking at you Nick Cave!).
This post will include photos of Amanda Palmer, Jared Leto, Jim James, NERDIST, Nick Cave, Heartless Bastards, Black Angels, Young Galexy and Hurray For the Riff Raff!
Began my morning with Amanda Palmer, who I was not stalking today, and her awesome panel made up of people from Girlie Action (I love you Girlie Action! You’re the nicest PR people I’ve ever dealt with!), Kickstarter and others who were involved with her madly successful campaign on producing and releasing her last album.
