Dirty Projectors: Dave Longstreth tuning the guitar

Dirty Projectors live at Barbican, good times! Finally able to see them play live and I was amazed, the first half was with Alarms will Sound playing The Getty Address in it’s entirety. The second half of the show was where it’s at, totally grooving out to songs from Bitte Orca. Good times

Au Revoir Simone at Scala

Au Revoir Simone live at Scala cakes

Getting a pass there proved more confusing than needed, but otherwise it was an awesome show! Met up with loads of my bestest friends and even got me a 200mm f2.8 lens along the way. Au Revoir Simone are always uuber friendly and cute when they play :) Favourite song there was Knights of Wands, mainly because of the synchronised claps (and being able to play it on the keyboard, Annie has the hardest part). Anyways, eee au revoir simone, i keep asking who’s Simone, who’s Revoir and who’s Au.

Beach House – ultimate swoon fest

Beach House live at Bush Hall
As well as redesigning the blog I also renewed my subscription to Vimeo. It’s an awesome and classy video service, so many times I’ve tried uploading videos onto youtube to have them not sync up correctly. With Vimeo it works first time, everytime.

Originally I was hoping to upload all my videos in chronological order but that plan sort of sizzled when I had to upload some emergency videos. So I thought I’d upload some Beach House videos that were previously botched on youtube. Hope you enjoy them and my photos :)

Wildbirds & Peacedrums at Bishopsgate Institute

Wildbirds & Peacedrums: Now with CHOIR POWA!
Ah Bishopsgate Institute, kinda reminded me of going to a prom (not that I went to one). The floor was slippery enough to slide around the place (and mess up your jeans). Anyway, strange venue for a Wildbirds & Peacedrums gig but throw in a choir and you’ve got yourself a stew going on!

These guys are constantly experimenting ways of making their shows special and this one is no exception. The choir worked well for their newest material but at the same time showed a new dimension to their old stuff. Check out more photos and videos of them in action.
