My friends The Stray Assembly played their second show at Candy's Apartment in Kings Cross. I decided to go along and take photos of them instead of going to shoot The Mess Hall at Gaelic Theatre.
It was my first time at Candy's. It was a nice little venue with very low lighting. It was a external flash and 50mm f/1.8 type of night. I prefer better lighting but sometimes you've just got to put up with these things.
I'll add some photos later. I'm off to Annandale Hotel again to shoot Rocket Science, so I'll add some photos up here of them too.
Then I've got Avenged Sevenfold to shoot next wednesday, but they'll be getting their own post.
Stay tuned.
EDIT:
Check out photos of TSA here: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=34500&id=523464306
If you can't view them then you're just going to have to add me on Face Book.

New Years Resolution
First, let me say that this has been my most exciting year as a band photographer. I had to leave my friends and friends bands behind to shoot more popular bands. Although many of my friends are now famous rockstars. Last year I was all about the Wollongong scene but this year I stopped going to College there, so I've missed the scene so much. 7 Sins (the merch shop that all the kids used to hang out in) closed so the closeness of that scene is now over and will never come back again. That has been one of the most depressing thoughts of the year.
Early this year I shot Fall Out Boy, 30 Seconds to Mars, The Used and Anberlin as well as popular Australian bands such as The Hot Lies, Kisschasy, Evermore, Gotye, etc. 2008 will hopefully be pretty much the same. I've been trying to get into the Boys of Summer tour and at least one festival. 2008 is all about international band as well as national, festivals and the odd promo shoot.
So, here are some other resolutions of mine:
New Years Resolutions.
1. Finish reading Snakehead so I can buy more books.
2. Buy battery charger for my flash.
3. Buy f/1.4 lens.
4. Buy either 85mm f/1.8 or 100mm f/2.8 lenses.
5. Get a full time job.
6. See Horsell Common live and tell them they are the greatest band in the universe.
7. See Gyroscope live and tell Zoran how awesome he is.
8. Buy non-Harry Potter related games for Nintendo Wii.
9. Get better manga drawing skills.
10.Actually get my stories on paper or in electronic writing form.
Bands to see/photograph this year:
Silverstein, Brand New, Thursday, Alexisonfire, From Autumn to Ashes, The Matches, Fall of Troy, Killswitch Engage, Saosin, Plain White T's, Scary Kids Scarying Kids, Bleeding Through, Carpathian, All Time Low, Sugarcult, The Black Crowes, etc.
Bands I want to see/ photograph:
Bayside, Fall Out Boy, You Am I, Avalon Drive, Trial Kennedy, The Hot Lies, The Pictures, Panic! At the Disco, Chiodos, Funeral For A Friend, Far-Less, The Vandas, The Exploders, After the Fall, Behind Crimson Eyes, Something With Numbers, The Cops, etc.
