The angry orts at PALS Clubhouse, playing their 2nd show with their new-look lineup featuring Molly on backup vocals and Emily on bass. I shot these on my Canon AE-1 using Ilford Delta 3200 film. It was dark and my manual focusing skills are rusty as hell, but I love the naturally imperfect results you get with an old film camera with technical limitations. Holga photos coming in the next post, so stay tuned!

The Portland Chapter of the School of Rock recently put on a hell of a show at the Crystal Ballroom, featuring the students playing a slew of great songs from some of Portland's finest artists. Even better, some members of the "real" bands joined the kids onstage to help them play their own songs. Not that they really needed the help. I have to admit, before the show I expected at best a fun show with kids playing these songs as well as they could and gosh darn it'll be cute. Wrong! They can fucking play, and I grossly underestimated their chops and fearless stage presence. It was a blast, and I look forward to seeing another show in the future. Check out the rest of my photos here.
The Decemberists are releasing a live album on 3/13/12. I shot the cover photo (that one up there!) at Edgefield, just outside Portland, during the final show of their most recent tour. More specifically during "The Mariner's Revenge Song". See more info and the tracklisting on their website.
