Karen O 11/14/2019



Karen O texted me out of the blue 3 weeks ago to see if I would come photograph the Dangermouse show at King's Theatre..   which of course I say Hail Yeah !!!!   --I love photographing anything Karen is doing, and that show was beautiful.   and oh man Brian from Dangermouse is v handsome it made me shy.    Mostly took live show photos (some so crazy beautiful of Karen singing)... was hard to get my focus sometimes, the lighting changed from super dark to spotlights that made everything shine and twinkle and that's where I got the real good shots.   I'm working on the scans now, I need to send them stuff....


super busy at work and thanksgiving last week was amazing in nyc, my college-going (!!)  nieces Sage and Selma came down from Vermont and Ithaca and all stayed here in my room in Brooklyn.  We had dinner at Taylor and Wes's and the next day a big party at Oddeye Taylor's store that was closing the next day.   The store not the business... Oddeye reborn actually today !  but now only online without the pesky overhead of renting a store space.


Will post some Karen photos soon...  I just made the contact sheets, and still need to develop 1 roll of b/w.  --posting this so I will push myself to get it done after work tmrw.  !!   xo

here's 1 crappy neg scan from right before the show



and then one of me after the show after I ate one of my roommate Jeska's weed chocolates whooooopsy...  ;)'        


terrible contact sheet scans this time... gotta make real scans with color corrections.

today was super fun at work, Michael did a guest spot on At Home with Amy Sedaris (Amy is the best comedian ever, she kills me always... I'm a HUGE fan of her since forever).   It's the third time I've gotten to go to her show -so spoiled (Michael's done 3 guest spots).   I wish I was able to take real photos from being there, but could only take a couple of iPhone snaps.   anyways it's also good not to take photos and just watch (that's what everyone says you should say, but really I wanted to take photos obv.)     Michael was super funny and looked like a Gaultier sailor man, he had to read a poem... something that had to do with a character Janis,... "it was Janis"..    I think Paul Dinelo wrote it.  He was on Strangers with Candy as Jellineck... I love that guy too.  I have a photo of Michael on set but don't think I can/should put it in here until after that episode airs.   xx  12/3/2019
