Gilbert Castellanos Group at the Onyx Room, 7/7/09

Our downtown adventure finished off with a couple sets at the Onyx Room with Gilbert Castellanos. Yes, I'm taking band photos while out with my wife on our night-before-our-anniversary celebration.

Hey, she knows what she married.

I'm not very happy with what I shot since the Onyx Room has this lava lamp lighting scheme, and I was a couple drinks past the point of being able to shoot well anyway. Most of the show was spent shooting at ISO 200. D'oh!

Dylan Savage left the next day for Japan, where he'll be spending the next two years with his wife. He sat in for a couple songs with the band, and he never sounded better.

I never mentioned it on here, but I was honored when Dylan asked me to shoot his wedding a few months ago. This was the first wedding gig I ever accepted, I usually turn them down. Hopefully he won't mind if I post my favorite shot from his wedding.


Good luck in Okinawa, Dylan and Sang-hee! We're going to miss you. I hope you make each other as happy in your marriage as Heather's made me these past two years!
