last weekend was crazy. here’s some proof.

April 29th, 2009 Posted by andy

hello blog readers. this past weekend was crazy. friday i went out to coachella and shot. it was surpsingly nice weather, and i got to watch a beatle play (but not shoot photos of him, unfortunately). the shots from coachella or of these bands, in order: the airborne toxic event, the hold steady, the black keys, conor oberst, stage right crowd, biggest jungle gym ever, leonard cohen (amazing), and morrissey. it was a fun day.

then saturday night was totally different. new kids on the block at the palladium. it was 30 year old women (and me and josh) screaming their (our) lungs out and singing ‘please don’t go girl’. it was pretty amazing.

finally, monday night, hillsong united played at the nokia theatre la live downtown. it was my first time to this venue, and it was pretty epic. it was so good to see joel and brooke and scott and all the hillsong crew. i’ve had the chance to see them a few times now (more times in aus/nz than in america, which is weird) and every time is seriously a special special night.

i know that’s a lot of photos. but, it was a long weekend. i have a shoot next week with the switchfoot guys for their new record. i’m really excited about this one. if you’ve read this far, at least leave a comment!

cheers.

    Andy, you basically have my dream job. So watch out, I may have to hire an assassin. But not really, because I couldn’t kill such a cool guy…

    Hey Andy,

    Great PHotos!!!! I know a girl who I think plays and sings for Hillsong down in Australia (Sydney). Her name is Jill. Have you met her or her husband (don’t know the husband’s name?
