tool are awesome. a challenge to shoot as well :)
Things I learned over the four tool shows I shot earlier in the year:
- My manual focusing skills need a lot of practice
- Adam and Danny have the most light on them during the first song.
- Danny however has a big drum kit in the way :)
- 85mm 1.8 was the best for auto-focus in the conditions out of all my lenses
- tool have invented an anti-autofocus lighting rig
NURBURGRING, GERMANY-19 MAY 02--S&S: Raymond T. Conway--Tool's Maynard James Keenan performs at the Rock am Ring Festival in Nurburgring, Germany, on May 19th, 2002.
One evening in Big Mamou, while hanging out the door of his brother's pick-up truck, Maynard's head dragged on the pavement. The friction energized the neurons of his occipital lobe and enabled Maynard to see the future. Neurologists at Tulane University were fascinated, but Maynard never thought much of it. But when his brother wanted to place a bet on the Saint's game, Maynard saw the potential for his new found clairvoyant ability. During the entire 2009 football season Maynard was seen hanging out of the old Dodge pick-up truck while Mernard sped madly down the blacktop near the catfish ponds in Big Mamou.
Then one evening a wandering possum put an end to Maynard's psychic abilities. Mernard said Maynard should have seen it coming. Maynard said he did, but Mernard didn't. No matter how long he dragged his head down the blacktop Maynard never regained his abilities. He now works at Maisonnat's Funeral Parlor and Taxidermy Shop in Big Mamou Louisiana. Occasionally, when the moon is new, Maynard and Mernard can still be seen speeding down the bayou blacktops attempting to reclaim their glory days of prophecy.

Contrary to his screen image, off-screen Maynard was thoroughly disliked by pretty much everyone he worked with. He was described as everything from "a bad-tempered drunk" to "downright mean". This behavior eventually cost him his film career, despite having numerous opportunities to redeem himself.

Tinplate and plastic articulated container lorry 'Maynards American Hard Gums' produced in Hong Kong for Zodiac toy shops with the name 'Zodiac Toys' on the end of the box.
The toy shops were owned by Maynards – hence the livery on the truck. Later toys packaged for Zodiac carried the Midnight brand name.
This same truck was also produced with Cadbury's Wispa on the container: www.flickr.com/photos/adrianz-toyz/10834324196
I saw this one legged seagull out on the water running with the larger pelicans and other sea gulls. He never let his handicap slow him down. It reminded me of another gull from a book I read long ago, Maynard Gull.
Excerpt from Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach:
“Come along then.” said Jonathan. “Climb with me away from the ground, and we’ll begin.”
“You don’t understand My wing. I can’t move my wing.”
“Maynard Gull, you have the freedom to be yourself, your true self, here and now, and nothing can stand in your way.It is the Law of the Great Gull, the Law that Is.”
“Are you saying I can fly?”
“I say you are free.”

Ken Maynard (1895–1973) was one of the superstars among the film cowboys.
Reportedly, Ken Maynard began his career as a trick rider with the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show and later with Ringling Brothers (some sources deny this). From 1924 on, he worked in Hollywood and made some 20 silent westerns. He was famous for the stunts he could enact with his horse Tarzan. Maynard was the first singing cowboy in the movies. In this early sound film, he sings the songs Down in Union County, The Old Chisholm Trail and Sal's Got a Wooden Leg. Jack Backstreet at IMDb: "Few stars were ever as disliked within the business but held in such high regard by fans as Ken Maynard. To never have met Maynard was reportedly a blessing. And despite his innumerable personality shortcomings, no other western star of the period had so many opportunities thrown his way. " Maynard had joined Universal during the sound transition period and made eight respectable pictures there. For the 1931-32 production season, the studio, riding high with its homegrown monster craze, opted to ditch westerns altogether and Ken, who studio head Carl Laemmle had quickly grown to dislike, found himself on the wrong side of the studio's gates. During the 1930s, he moved from one studio to another and finally went back to rodeo work. He did a few more low-budget films in the early 1940s and then retired for good except for bit parts. Married multiple times, Ken's last wife, Bertha died in 1968 and he found himself living largely off meagre Social Security checks. His last years were miserable. He was an alcoholic, who lived alone and in poverty in a trailer. In 1973, Ken Maynard died largely forgotten at the Woodland Hills Motion Picture Home.

Here is a selection of five photographs taken by Ricky Maynard, a Palawa man from Cape Barren Island on Tasmania's northeast. Ricky's family is among the survivors of the cultural apocalypse which all but wiped out the original indigenous inhabitants of Tasmania. Almost, but not quite.
And this indomitable spirit is what Ricky is wanting to capture in his photography. Perhaps the most moving of these five photographs (which I saw and photographed in Hobart several years ago) is the self portrait where Ricky is looking out to sea from his island home towards the Tasmanian mainland from which his people had been driven in the 1820s and 30s.
Ricky Maynard uses a large format camera shooting mainly black and white film. I'd strongly encourage you to listen to the interview in the link below. This is one example of how photography can be important as a cultural tool to take us beyond the usual prettification of the world we see on social media.
