A while back I did another press shoot with The Taros. It was a lot of fun – I always enjoy working with them.

Here are a few of my favourite shots from the day.

MAX Presents: Take a Stand! at ROAR

I’m not very involved in the metal scene so hadn’t heard of the MAX Campaign until recently – a great local initiative, Metalheads Against Xenophobia raised over R9000 last weekend alone when they hosted a huge all ages gig at ROAR featuring, among others, Beedelstorm, Ill System and ohgod. It was also a farewell, as it was SuiderbeeS’ final show.

Like I said I don’t attend a lot of metal gigs, but when I do I always have a great time…

George Ezra at the Durbanville Racecourse

George Ezra recently played an all-ages show at the Durbanville Racecourse with the support of Beatenberg, Hot Water and Bongeziwe Mabandla. The northern suburbs venue made a nice change from the city, and gave what could’ve been a Kirstenbosch show the vibe of Rocking the Daisies meets the Met; I’m not the biggest fan of anywhere with kids running around all over the place but there was ample space for them at the racecourse and the 8pm curfew gave the whole day a festival/family picnic vibe. Plus if I was a 14 year old Ezra fan (and there was no shortage of them) I’d be delighted to be able to go to the show, so it was cool making it all-ages. And a cool show it was too, horrendous and unnecessary Macy Gray cover notwithstanding.

Here are some shots from the event.

I was never a big fan of Tweak back in the day and kinda skipped the whole high school punk/ska phase in general, but I do remember them, as do a whole lot of other people who packed out the Assembly on August 22nd.

Hog Hoggidy Hog’s 20th birthday in honour of George Bacon at the Assembly

2015

George Bacon‘s untimely death was made even more tragic by the fact that it came just a few months shy of the band’s 20th anniversary. On Saturday August 15th the Hogs got together with a long list of special guest collaborators as well as supporting acts Half Price, The Rudimentals and 7th Son to pay tribute to George and to celebrate the band’s birthday at the Assembly.

It was a very emotional night but, in true Hogs style, it was also an energetic celebration. Here are some photos from the night.
