Okay now, here's a little photo journal of my gig at the L.A. Convention Center. I was hired to play assistant guitar for an L.A. based Jazz band, and lead guitar for a punk/ska group we know very well at this music festival that was held yesterday.Here's the convention center at it appears the minute I was pulled in in a sweet ass limo.
This is a photo I took of the cityscape around the convention center as the elevator took me downstairs to mingle with the fans and whatnot.
Before I did anything though, they assigned me a green room to change into costume and leave my backpack or hang up my clothes, my room was so strange, because it was just this big ass room with a bathrooms in the corner, one for men and another for women, and a few coathangers in a small closet. I had enough space here to put my entire house! By this time, I really wanted an Iced Coffee...
Up next was the Pico BLVD entrance, it's not a big deal, but alot of famous people have entered through here, and it's also where I entered when I played my very first gig nine years ago, I was a wee Goatling then, ah good memories. Still wanted a goddamn Iced Coffee.
Here's the main lobby of the Convention Center, it was weird seeing it empty, only a few people signing up for who knows what and VIP fans who were allowed to roam all over the place. No Iced Coffee being sold anywhere, by this time, I was looking for a blasted Starbucks.
So I found this really cool balcony where I shot this here. This picture was taken about an hour before everyone showed up, so there's still not that many people. Still no Iced Coffee, but I wasn't too worried about it right now, since there were so many fans wanting to talk to all of us playing there.
Then an hour later, OH MY CRAP! Close to 5,000 people showed up making up a long ass line as far as the eye can see, it was hot out that day, and I wanted my damn iced coffee. Met some really cool Vigaku fans among the crowd who came to see me, it was nice of them.

Sooooo tired, I took this photo on accident when I was relaxing, but I kept it in here anyways, for relaxing purposes. I could sure go for an Iced Coffee...Finally, I had to go back inside and took this photo of the sky, it was very nice that day and there were a ton of people.
This is my game face I put on before everyshow, a lot of people are worried of this face, because they don't know what it means, but it's just circus music going on in my head, Do-do-do-do-doodly-doodly-do-do…

This is backstage, all the way to the end, the stage awaits, primed and in costume, my guitar was tuned and I was ready, I think I did pretty alright. This picture is weird because, there's no one in it but me, but from the minute it took to take the picture, to seeing if it was saved on my cellphone, and looking straight down the hallways again, like 100 people just poured out of every door, WHAT THE?!At this time, they took away my phone for who the f*ck knows what reasons, then they gave it to me about three hours later, I had 77 missed calls, oh my crap...
3:50pm, been up since 4:00am, still wanted a damn Iced Coffe, so I finally found a Starbucks!!!
But it looked like this...
FFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

I like this last pic the best. I forgot what this type of picture is called...but it's something like high res over exposure or something, right?
Is it a feature on your digital camera or did you have to buy an HDR camera for it?
Oh, and you guys look like a nice couple! 😄
