#guitarmonday decides to show up after taking a nap for three months. Hey, it does what it wants. So here's a suitable #guitarmonday song by Death of Lovers.
Why is this song suitable? Because I'm usually just as spooky in November as I am at the end of October, and because I'm not over the Festival of Ghouls I photographed on October 30th and I want to show you more photos. Nope, I'm still buzzing. I'm not over it. It was phenomenal. If I could photograph an event like this EVERY SINGLE WEEKEND I would. I would.
IÂ don't even know where to start.
Maybe with the house band, Reversels - which was new to me but on this past Bandcamp Friday I went and bought three albums because I loved their music so much. There's that.
And my friend Quiet Entertainer who rocked the house and needs to update his website.
I need to tell you: throughout the evening there were other performances during the live music - burlesque, drag, pole dance, & aerial acrobatics. Which made for lush and gorgeous visuals to go with the music. Several of the performers were from the Suspended Gravity Circus, and they all were amazing.
IÂ haven't seen the band Pepper Said since November of 2019; and their performance this time was ELEVATED. It was so, so, so good.
Wanna see some photos of the terrific drag & burlesque performances? Of course you do.
And of course, the last performance of the evening was our beloved Fable Cry - our hosts and organizers for the evening. I want to say a few words here about this performance. Before this, I had seen Fable Cry twice; with slightly different line-ups, in small venues, with questionable light (I'm being kind). Seeing them at Oz Arts with professional lighting, a big enough stage for their 6-piece, and enough space for each member to rock out the way they want without knocking things over, was a revelation. A REVELATION. They should always be performing on stages like this.
So IÂ want to say Thank You to Fable Cry for having me out to make photos, and for putting on such a tremendous event. Long may it reign.
Be excellent to each other until I talk to you again, folks. You know where to find me.
