Default Who are you shooting tonight/this weekend?

I was trading some emails with good "OLD" Dwight and we happen to share who we are shooting tonight.


So I thought it might be fun to start a thread with who you are snapping this weekend.

For me I'm shooting Charlie Robison @ the famous Billy Bob's Texas in Ft. Worth.

No concert shoots for me this weekend.

Instead, I'm taking out the Bigma to shoot some birds.

I was gonna' take the Mossberg to shoot birds, but I'll be within city limits, so...

I'm not shooting concerts at the local venue this weekend...and it's uncertain what the camera restrictions will be yet for next weekend...

Deer hunting season is still on through the 9th here in PA...so I'm not stepping out for birding...besides it's around 20 degrees outside...It will be 50 degrees again in a few days...

I might post some previous shots instead, that a local INTERNET web radio station uses in their 24/7 slide show...some are on CD of my Canon 35mm SLR, still gotta find them...

Enjoy...

i've got two shoots this weekend (already done two since tues night...damn i should get to bed early tonight!).

sat is an incredible bill of two acoustic guitar masters. Peter Walker and Jack Rose. i shot Jack this summer and he was amazing, but having Peter Walker (60's contemporary of people like Fahey, Renbourn, Jansch, etc) is gonna be great.

sun night is the Pernice Brothers. in a perfect world, joe pernice would rule the radio waves; totally great AM radio pop fodder. really distinictive lyrics and very solid song structure. looking forward to both shows.

Well, taygull brought it up! I am shooting a Toys for Tots benefit tonight (for which I will be paid). The performers are all up and coming country singer/songwriters. Jimmy Wayne about whom I don't know much. Taylor Swift, who I think is 16 and for whom taygull has instructed me to bring home a CD inscribed, "All My Love Forever to You, Chris". I have shot and posted of her here earlier this year. And Danielle Peck, who my whole family loves ... she's got a bunch of incredible tunes out now but I like the one with the phrase, "Jesus loves you ... I don't!" She's on MySpace, as it Taylor Swift and probably Jimmy. These folks aren't as popular here at POTN as the Hip-Hop "Legends" that Steve Parr loves so much and Rockers, but some of us enjoy them.

yup yup.

I couldn't put up with it and wouldn't enjoy photogging people that already get more attention in live then they deserve.

A reasonable place to rub elbows or take a chair lift ride and get a PIC with a celebrity sometimes happens on the ski slopes of Lake Tahoe...

Tejas Records is showcasing their top tejano bands (Los Desperadoz, Ram herrera, Las 3 divas, Sonny Saulceda) at a local nightclub and filming it for a DVD. I have been hired to shoot it because they will need images for the DVD package.

Anybody got any earplugs they can lend me?

No Tejano Dance is Too Hot, Too Crowded, or Too Noisy

This weekend I'm scouting the location for *next* weekend's shoot: I'm taking portraits of over 200 kids and adults performing in Ballet Minnesota's Classic Nutcracker. Unfortunately, no performance photos, though . The director is very possessive of his art and doesn't allow *any* performance photos, except for the one's he takes. His ballet, his rules.

I shot a two-group a cappella concert tonight. I'll be shooting a wedding for most of the day, followed by another two-group a cappella concert Saturday. Sunday morning I'll shoot my photos for my end-of-the-semester art history project; Sunday evening I'll probably wrap up my Photo 200 project.

Good times
