There will be a selection of datsuns shots at the "exhibition" (a glorified party with my photos on the wall)

uh huh go bon jovi......
did u remember to brush ur hair before going on t.v? and u even managed to restrain yourself from the customary "Hi Mum!" wave.......
nah, but seriously, some wicked work there, bloody marvellous - and you did a nice job at explaining how you capture it....."you gotta flow with the band" - or something along those lines......
two big thumbs up....
i didn't realise they were from the tv ...
i didn't realise they were from the tv until too late, i thought i was being interviewed for the post....ha,ha i had been moving furniture and shit around my studio all day and was all sweaty (ewwww.) fuckn rough as guts. They just called me up outta the blue. crazy the shit that happens.
yeah man., Bon fuckn Jovi "Slippery when wet" tour t-shirt. cheers to those who watched it.
and cheers to the crew that came along and partied at my place tonight. respect, thanks for making the effort, for those that didn't, but want to come along, I'll be open from 8 Dec-xmas everyday from 11-3pm. I may move it into a welly cafe/gallery/venue early next year and then take it up to auckers for a week or so next year.
// you gotta flow with the band
god i wank on sometimes.....:), shit i should get that cheesy line printed on some cheap t-shirts.
Blink-you gotta flow with the band
geez i'm cheese
Just seconding the other positive ...
Just seconding the other positive comments - saw you on the tele, you came across just fine. Dunno about that shirt though - you might have been better off wearing a little pink Truebliss number.
// Dunno about that shirt though - you ...
// Dunno about that shirt though - you might have been better off wearing a little pink Truebliss number.
actually, i could of worn my little pink bon jovi number. :) i have the most beautiful 80s t-shirt collection. this Bon Jovi being my favourite, i have many offers from people to sell it to them. But since 88 is my favourite number and it is a Bon Jovi 88, with Slippery "tour patch" shit,I'm not gonna sell it. (matt from marystaple...give up...i'm not gonna sell)
I never even liked bon jovi, i was def leppard man (salute "Hysteria"). Just like i never liked wham, i was an a-ha man. you can't like both...it's a crime.
ha, ha...by the way...did i use correct ...
ha, ha...by the way...did i use correct use of the word "synergy", it just popped out, i don't know why, did that whole thing even make sense:) what did i mean....i been reading to many of ocphuman's comments, i don't even understand myself now, and i am as white trash as they come.
yes blink you were fine, there was a ...
yes blink you were fine,
there was a wee stumble in the middle, a half pie stutter and an endearing twist of the shirt, I can not get how they made you look so young AND sweet AND enthusiastic AND innocent........... I had expected a warning "the following item contains language that may offend", oh and the whole rugby analogy was brilliant
i remember trying to shoot a rugby game ...
i remember trying to shoot a rugby game once...and i have that natural inbuilt sense of the game that 90% of kiwi males seem to be born with...but i still can't follow it.., on the other hand, at the pacifier gig, i as shooting it with teina who got some great shots and this other chick from the Dominion Post who took heaps of photos of grinspoon and then when pacifier came on, she hardly had any film left and she said to me ....."what!! i thought that last band (grinspoon) were pacifier"........geez!
christ almighty.
goes to show............
goes to show.........

did they get a shot of your pansy fairy lights?

It was a great interview, you were a great interviewee!
//did i use correct use of the word "synergy"
Yes you did, as I recall in the context of something along the lines of the musicians and the photographer having a synergy.
The word comes from the Greek word 'sunergia':"sun-" which signifies "together" or "with" and
"ergia" to mean "work" or "action". In plain english, it's just 'syn' stuck in front of 'enrgy' to give a name to when greater things are achieved with the combined action or cooperaton between two or more things/people working together as one.
Oh dear gawd, I need to get out more, this is what happens when you spend three years doing linguistics in an institution: (1) the development of an unhealthy love of words, (2) the tendency to rattle on about total crap.
There I go again, doing a number two.
I did have a purposeful reason for making a post, and that was... urm, oh that's right, to ask you very nicely to bring your exibition down here to Chch. It's a city located on a little lump that protrudes above the Tasman Sea SW to the coast of Wellington, and it's called the Sth Island.
Yes it is inhabited, and the creatures who live on this Island, including myself like to look at pretty pictures just like any other person on Nth Zealand.
yeah, the whole point of this promo ...
yeah, the whole point of this promo extravaganza, tv, news and magazines and shit is for me to get some funding, sponsorship to take it on the road. I'm thinking music month next year, a week in each of the main centres maybe....
Yay! ...
Yay!
//a week in each of the main centres ...
//a week in each of the main centres maybe....
that would include nelson aye mate? :P
seriously tho, nelson is an arts centre, with some good advertising in the local paper etc it is a small enough town to get interested, and you can just call in for a few days on your way to chch or something......
yeah, i'm gonna come down and ...
yeah, i'm gonna come down and photograph the cusp 03, so i'll try to get something in motion then. I assume you are going to the cusp, jimi..
i'm pretty sure im going. all my ...
i'm pretty sure im going. all my friends are doing the 'lets go away, our home town sucks' thing, but im pretty amped to stay, what with the awesome lineup at the cusp. is it true 1qa are playing?
all i can say is make sure you advertise the exhibition well. we nelsoners are pretty slack at finding out stuff and you might want to tell the paper how famous you are (heh heh) so they give you good exposure. this is a good way to get the average punter of nellytown along rather than just the art elite. ill bring all my friends as well..... we can get that modelling portfolio underway ;)
oh i can also put posters up for you around town, or you should get in touch with spanky from clowndog or dave from smalltime records who are the big men on nelson campus, i often catch them putting up posters 'illegally' late at night around town.
yeah man, it's a huge ...
yeah man, it's a huge line-up...Betchadupa, Clowndog, Degrees K, Minuit, 1QA, Mother Guru...and heaps more for gold coin entry...why the fuck would you leave town? i was going to go to pahia, but then i heard about this line-up....when degrees k were announced i was sold....slap your friends silly and tell them to stay put.

Though you have to motivate yourself to do anything like play music for example.
