Why bother?

Another question... Why bother letting photographers into take pictures of your show for one song, not turning the lights on, holding your elbows up infront of your face like chicken wings, wearing a fleece neon orange jacket, and so on? Oh the list could carry on with the shit one goes through when shooting Tool live and really all I could do was laugh!?! Thank god Mastodon opened the show with some authority... Now there is a band that rawks! But shooting Tool wasn't all bad because as I was leaving there were two kids riding their bikes through the timed fountains infront of the arena that were way more entertaining!!

Before the show went early to meet up with Joby Sessions and Nick Cracknell who were down to do a feature with Mastodon for Total Guitar. (Got an email today that I'll be shooting the "Mammoth" Mastodon on Wednesday at the Natural History Museum!!) Great to see Joby and Nick and I'll be heading to Bath this weekend as Joby's band Moderate Scene Of Injury are playing a couple of shows...
