Kishi Bashi at Off Broadway
This is Kishi Bashi. He has beautiful hands and an album coming out in April. JD saw him when he played with Of Montreal at the Luminary last year. Last night he appeared at Off Broadway. Have you even gone to a show and worried that no one else would show? This was like that, except that I shouldn't have worried- he has a following. Normally I would have left the balcony and gone down front to get more intimate shots, but his fans were clustered around the stage and I didn't want to get in anyone's way. And I didn't want to get distracted from listening. So, anyway, have some slightly distant telephoto shots and go listen to his track Manchester on Bandcamp.

I Went to a Showcase, Off Broadway
I'm learning how to use a new camera. I don't quite have my sea-legs with it, yet, but five hours of practice last Saturday at Off Broadway certainly helped.

SLSO Blogger Night, Powell Hall
Every once in a while, the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra generously offers local bloggers tickets to a performance. I am not one of those bloggers. Happily, Julie is.
Gil Shaham was our soloist, dancing his way through Prokofiev's Violin Concerto No. 2. That's him on the right with the long tie.
Watching him play was almost as much fun as listening to him, and I thought he sounded incredible.
The whole program was strong. I'll let JD tell you all about it. I'll just leave you with another pic of Powell's staircase
...and part of the view as we wandered back to our car.

B&E at the Way Out Club
My only disappointment for the night was that I forgot to bring my little pocket camera, so I couldn't take fun interior pics of the Way Out. If you've ever been there you'll know why I love it so. And now I finally have a pocket camera that works in near dark. I can't take pics like these from the Bleeding Deacon with my SLR; people get all attentive. Don't even ask about the flash - that's not really my style... Anyway, I'll get some next time.
I'd packed the big camera to get some pics of B&E. They didn't seem to mind.

Jonathan Coulton @ Off Broadway
Second time this week I've gone out and not been the nerdiest person in the audience...

An Undercover Weekend @ Firebird
A Firebird brainstorm: Local bands playing as bands STL could never lure to a small venue on a Saturday night. Good fun. I hope the bands enjoyed it as much as we did.
