Well would you believe it, after attending and shooting the Indoor Summer 2022 Festival in Hamburg in September it’s been pretty much nothing working in my head since, have not been able to get the head working at all, have struggled to both get up and moving and also to get anything finished, but fingers crossed these last few days will help me get back on track again and out of the Depression hole again. One day at a time as they say.
I am still working through photographs from the last couple of Festivals I have attended and when I can’t write it just means there is no chance of getting reviews done, so going to try and blast through a few things for the rest of the week, a bit of luck will definitely be needed, but keep getting a walk in daily and that will help things. Last week I managed to get out to a show I’d been looking forward to since 2020, Sepultura with support from Sacred Reich and Crowbar, and as I had also been asked if I’d shoot the show I think it helped to push me out the door. Terrific show with all three bands on top form, and when asked to write a review which wasn’t planned I managed to get it finished and the photos turned around in not too bad a timeframe.
Here is the link to the Review with my Photos (or click the photo below) – Sepultura – Academy, Dublin – 03-11-2022
So today I’m going to try and blast through a Festival Review and post a Gallery later this evening. Just keep aiming to do as much as I can with the world is working inside my head and may even get more stuff done and feel a little better about the creative side of things. And tomorrow maybe go look at a new camera if I can get a good deal on it.
Aside from that have a quick trip over to Nottingham, which is a very familiar journey for me, next week to see Soul Asylum/Everclear and mark one more off my Bucket List, and hopefully shoot another show or two before the end of the month.
Maybe a sunny November is just when I need in this crazy brain of mine :-).
Stay safe out there and try to bring a smile to your face when you can.
