Some of these were in Blunt issue 89

I was really happy with this venue and the stage setup at this show, the lights and the smoke machine worked really well for me. I started with a 430ex each side of stage very close to the front, while I shot from front and center of the crowd, then as I moved to the side I was able to walk around behind the stage area and position my strobes as backlights.


I Exist - Basement show

I haven't gotten around to editing all the tour photos or video yet.
Here's some video of I Exist, Phantoms and Warbrain  playing a basement show yesterday.



Roots bloody roots intro, Inveiglement, Invert the son, One thousand hooves. Jake attempted an inverted cross head stand
with the microphone in his mouth and chipped his tooth. At some point on tour I Exist decided to start doing parts of old metal songs as intros, Roots Bloody Roots by Sepultura was probably the best one.

Overnight drive from Sydney to Brisbane, with an early morning stop at the big banana.

Jake Willoughby took this photo.

Zaca's new band Promises played their first show.

Adrian Kelly joins merch band I Exist as the touring guitarist, and 7th member. While Aaron was teaching Kelly the songs backstage Matt Fox of Shai Hulud decided to learn '333' and played it with the band two hours later on stage at this show, I didn't take any photos of this but video of it will show up at some point.
Jake Willoughby generally refuses mic grabs, but it's not uncommon for him to just walk away when over powered by a group of kids singing invert the sun.

Shai Hulud 

This show was the worst of the tour in my opinion, not a horribly bad show, but compared to the rest it just wasn't as much fun, mainly because of the lack of crowd participation during Shai Hulud.
