Had an early call from Paul to fill in doing Dillinger Escape Plan today as he wasn't feeling too well.

Made it to the venue and setup in the main bar area. Once we got started the band were brilliant as they took direction very well which made for a great "short" shoot. We even exchanged names for the fat gravity dragged neck that plagues many people which I've always called the Du-lap Flap. I think "Throatum" which Dillinger coined was fantastic though!

I mentioned banter the other day and how usually the newer bands are all over it... The instant rapport and banter with DEP was hilarious and especially Billy the "new" drummer was a great sport with most of the abuse going his way!

After an afternoon meeting headed home and spent the evening trying to sort some drinks with Zack next week. A preview from the shoot today featuring Tom Bryant up to his old tricks of getting in the back of at least one frame the shoots I do that he is present at. I did text him a couple of times during his interview to ask if that was the equivalent of him jumping in the back of the shot!
