After my brief blog about the NKOTB show last night, I went onto local show promoter Club Mercy's website to see what might be happening musically around town. I needed to scratch the itch to shoot near a stage. While on their website, I made the personal discovery of the band Menomena, from Portland, OR who were playing at the Velvet Jones here in town. I checked the clock and it was 11PM, I thought hmmmm... I just might make it in time. I rushed down to the venue and arrived with just a few minutes to spare. As it turns out though, I was late on finding out about these guys, the place was packed with folks.
It was shoulder to shoulder next to the stage, the place was hot as hell, drunk people were stepping on me and bumping me while I was shooting and the music was awesome. It all reminded me that I need to get out and shoot in the clubs more often! Here's a few pics from the show...
