VHI's Behind the Music

 I just finished doing this, these are the photos I didn't use.

Looking at this photograph

Staring competition

I dropped my camera in the pub and the back popped open, hence the wonky few photos with bits missing. I was briefly, but intensely, devastated but it didn't stop me flipping dropping it again a few minutes later.




A few bits of flotsam/jetsam/treasure:

Cork, Black Sun, Backstreets Back, Alright

I feel like the camera has been clamped to my face this last week or so. This evening I'm gonna wade through the billions of photographs produced by a week that included a trip to Cork to see probably the most eye/ear-opening gig I've ever witnessed and two very enjoyable gigs of my own. Also this week: losing my keys, then sort-of losing someone else's keys; cross-town-massive-bag-transport; workworkwork and surprise Christmas tree! The sitting room smells like childhood with the tree in the corner.

The photo above is of Sionnach and Ali's game of peek-a-boo in the Pavillion in Cork, where last minute gig re-arrangements for Vicky's Black Sun night (my first time attending!) were feverishly, calmly being made.
