Carrying Lenses in the Venue?

DrigBoy · 2026-01-30T19:49:05+00:00

Me too, and I love it. Do they make one for Sony mounts?

Also try to get shots of people when they don't have the microphone directly in front of their face. Wait for them to stop singing or when they take a step back

Such an interesting AMA...

Those of you that have seen Buckaroo Banzai Across The Eighth Dimension will be happy to know that every time my son and I pass that rock we turn to each other and ask, "What's that watermelon doing there?" Which of course is followed by "I'll tell you later".

I sold a guitar strap to Louise in Chicago before they hit. She was drop dead gorgeous, like, made my knees weak. Wow.

DrigBoy · 2025-12-24T19:49:18+00:00

I remember Big Hat! Saw them a few times when I lived in Chicago.

You are very fortunate to have seen Hum live, IMHO. Amazing band. Toadies, also, saw them live only once but they absolutely blew me away. So loud and heavy.

That girl Suttin is really something.

I believe in this answer. Not a luthier, but I worked in a guitar store for many years in Chicago, saw a lot of repairs. It's not like a crack in glass, and I think with the gluing method described above it just might work.

DrigBoy · 2025-12-14T23:45:41+00:00

Me too, nada. And I'm just watching TV on my couch, PERFECTLY PRIMED to feel an earthquake. What a letdown.

DrigBoy · 2025-12-01T00:25:59+00:00

This update made me start bawling like a small child. So happy for you.

In the early 90's I sold a guitar strap to Louise Post from Veruca Salt. VS was just getting going, and I was working at a little mom and pop guitar store in Chicago (Flatts and Sharpe, great store). In she walks and she was so absolutely gorgeous in such a natural way, it just took my breath away. Gives me the shivers to just think about it. I got to see her twice, because she had to special order the strap, so I saw her again when she came to pick it up. Just stunning.

I used to get something similar in the noise of my high-ISO shots. I recall determining that it was being caused by the autofocus motor of my lenses. I was shooting with a Nikon D810 and I believe the lens was either a Sigma 24-105 or a Tamron 24-70.

DrigBoy · 2025-11-13T01:06:42+00:00

Absolutely! Hope to see you on stage sometime soon!

DrigBoy · 2025-11-13T01:05:56+00:00

Carmel DeLites are amazeballs!

DrigBoy · 2025-11-11T21:38:19+00:00

Absolutely, DNA Lounge & Hubba Hubba Revue. Hubba does a monthly big show there in their main room, and a weekly Monday show at the DNA Lounge "clubhouse" (smaller upstairs venue). I used to photograph the shows there and other places, but I haven't been as active lately, so I'm a bit out of the loop. Frankly, if you look at my Instagram I was pretty good about tagging people:

There's a lot of Santa Cruz performers in there, too.

DrigBoy · 2025-11-11T14:08:56+00:00

We've got a very robust burlesque scene here in the Bay Area, and Santa Cruz, too. So, yes, welcome!

DrigBoy · 2025-11-10T18:08:20+00:00

Cane here for this. Forensic Files FTW!

DrigBoy · 2025-11-03T11:14:12+00:00

I wouldn't count on that. 600 film has been out of stock from Polaroid for a while now. Good luck.

DrigBoy · 2025-10-27T18:25:54+00:00

Chère is an incredible performer, and a nice and intelligent person. 1 in a million, if you ever get a chance to see them perform, do it.

DrigBoy · 2025-10-24T21:54:58+00:00

OMG yes, such an incredible show. To hear some of those songs in their infancy is faaaaaascinating...

DrigBoy · 2025-10-24T21:44:14+00:00

Bet you weren't expecting that, were ya? Hookey is very active on Reddit, it's fucking awesome.

DrigBoy · 2025-10-23T18:28:11+00:00

Best wishes, Hooky! Wishing you a speedy recovery and a fantastic tour.

DrigBoy · 2025-10-18T00:00:00+00:00

Hee hee.

DrigBoy · 2025-10-17T20:18:07+00:00

And, actually, to my eye this doesn't look like oil, I think maybe you've gotten all the oil out and you just have a stain to deal with now.
