Converge live video Brisbane

It was a lucky coincidence that Converge were playing the last show of their Australian tour, on the same day that I Exist and Phantoms finished off their Queensland tour. Not only were both shows in the same city, but literally around the corner from one and other. So when I Exist and Phantoms finished their afternoon show, we had time to eat dinner, some of us ate at The Forrest which made awesome vegan tempe burgers, and then most of us headed to the hifi bar to watch Converge. I shot some video and took some photos, more of which will be posted soon.

The setlist for this show was:
Concubine
Dark Horse
Heartache
Hellbound
You Fail Me
Bare My Teeth/Black Rose
No Heroes
Locust Reign
Cutter
Vengeance
Reap What You Sow
Worms Will Feed
Axe To Fall
First Light
Eagles Become Vultures
The Broken Vow
Drop Out
Hope Street
Bitter and Then Some
Last Light
Jane Doe

Slowburn's last show video

The photos from this show are in the previous post. All the video is shot at a 1/100th sec, to make it look like Saving Private Ryan. Not really, but I like the fast shutter speed look. The video of 'Bongs' looks and sounds the best.

There was a good turnout to this gig, a number of people traveled from Melbourne and Sydney for it. It was sad to see Slowburn go, but it was a very fun day. They played a set that covered their entire time as a band, right from the early Top Gun songs, through to the album that was never released.

Little Lungs - Last vegan house show

This was the last show at this house, before everyone moved out. I Exist didn't play.
I took some video. The only light in the room was from a set of fake traffic lights, the kind you'd find at a primary school disco, lying on the floor to the left of the band. For most of the photos I used a 430ex to the left and one to the right both at ceiling height, also these were taken with my 5D.

Jerkstore from Canberra

Alphabet Snakes from Melbourne

Little Lungs from New York

There wasn't a huge turnout for this show, no one had really heard of Little Lungs before the tour, it was a good show nonetheless.
