Skydiver at Casbah, 2/16/11

Stimy's Memorial show happened last week at the Casbah, and I was honored to be asked to shoot the show for Kira and Joe. My photos of the people at the show are already up on Facebook, but I'm not sure if I want to put them up on Flickr or not. I shot most of the bands that night too, and I'll post the photos one band at a time.

I'll save my usual "witty banter" and photo geekery for some other time. Some of these bands haven't played together in many years and they were missing a key member too, so there's no need to critique the music. It was greatifying to see all these people able to get together and celebrate Stimy in the best possible way.

First up was Skydiver. Click on a photo to go to the full gallery.

OK, just a little photo geekery. I left this set pretty much as I saw it so that I would have a visible record of what it looks like almost straight out of the camera. Casbah, you MUST install these lights permanently. They are gorgeous! I know you changed out the gels in the front spots and they are brighter than they used to be, thanks, but this is just so much better. These lights, this stage, and me- we could all make such beautiful music together.

I also did a quick group shot of them as they were loading out.
