The wonderful Imelda May belting out another fantastic Rock - Blues - Rockabilly tune at Northumbria University in Newcastle.
Taken with my Canon G9, easily the best venue images I have ever got. I took 800 so I was bound to get a few nice ones in focus etc.. but I was suprised to see many of them were exactly how I wanted them, the black background was perfect and the G9 makes that black really perfect black.
See and Hear her here, classy stuff
1st May 2011 at the Fair Grounds Race Course (Blues Tent), New Orleans, USA.
New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, www.nojazzfest.com/.
Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: R and B.
Lineup: Glen David Andrews (v/trombone), Calvin Johnson (tenor sax), Paul Sanchez (g), Kyle Roussel (keyboards), Barry Stephenson (bass g), Jermal Watson (d), Howard “Smiley” Ricks (congas), Franklin Davis IV (v), Karen Green (v) and guests: Marcia Ball (p), Amanda Shaw (fiddle).
Glen David Andrews was born in 1980 and grew up in Treme as part of the extended family of Brass Band musicians. Derrick Tabb is his brother and James, Troy, Revert, Terence and Glen Joseph Andrews are cousins. He started out playing Bass Drum and switched to Trombone as a member of the Troy Andrews Brass Band. He has played with the New Birth, Lil Rascals and Treme bands. The first band he led was the Lazy Six (with a more typical Brass Band instrumentation including sousaphone, Bass and Snare Drums). These days he concentrates on his vocals and barely plays any Trombone. The size and enthusiasm of the audience in the Blues Tent demonstrated the impact of his appearances in the HBO series Treme. He is very good at working an audience, often throwing in some crowd surfing.

2nd July 2011 at Under the Bridge, London SW6.
Bluesfest London 2011, www.bluesfestlondon.com/.
Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: R and B.
Lineup: Troy "Trombone Shorty" Andrews (trombone/trumpet/v), Tim McFatter (tenor sax), Dan Oestricher (baritone sax), Pete Murano (g), Mike Ballard (bass g), Joey Peebles (d), Dwayne Williams (congas).
For their encore they swapped instruments, and lined up as: Ballard (trumpet), Williams (trombone), Murano (tenor sax), Peebles (g), McFatter (bass g), Andrews (d), Oestricher (congas).>/i>
Troy Andrews was born in Treme in 1986. He is 16 years younger than his older brother, James Andrews. He took up the trombone at a very early age (his first out of town gig with James was aged 4). It was soon after that his brother gave him his moniker, so it has nothing to do with his current height. Aged 7 he lead his first band (Tiny Toones Brass Band), followed by the Trombone Shorty Brass Band. Later he was part of the New Birth Brass Band. Troy Andrews moved away from brass Band music with Orleans Avenue, initially formed with a number of fellow students at NOCCA (New Orleans Center for the Creative Arts).

Well... I decided to to a PAW for one year (52 weeks) with a musical theme.
Which I will try to interpretate the lyrics in songs (either just the chorus, one line or even the whole lyric).
So 52 weeks, 52 pictures to 52 different songs
So please keep track of this project of mine (and comment what you feel about them)... since I'm doing this as a study for both taking pictures and my own imagination
Week 6
Well... i haven't done a hitlist/Billboard pop song yet, so why not try on the nr.1 song here in Denmark.
And also it really fits those days, since it has been raining like hell here the last week (mudbath f.ex. in Roskilde festival)
Not really what this song is about (at least when Rihanna is singing, while the Jay-z thing is really.... REALLY empty lyric)
Enjoy
Rihanna - Umbrella
2007
Good Girl Gone Bad
Jay-Z:
Ahuh Ahuh (Yea Rihanna)
Ahuh Ahuh (Good girl gone bad)
Ahuh Ahuh (Take three... Action)
Ahuh Ahuh
No clouds in my storms
Let it rain
I hydroplane into fame (Eh eh)
Come'n down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come we gone
We Rocafella (Eh eh)
She fly higher than weather
And she rocks it better
You know me
An anticipation for precipitation
stacks chips for the rainy day (Eh eh)
Jay, rain man is back with lil Ms. Sunshine
Rihanna where you at?
[VERSE 1]
You had my heart
and we'll never be world apart
Maybe in magazines
but you'll still be my star
Baby cause in the Dark
You can see shiny Cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share
Because
[CHORUS]
When the sun shines
We’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we still have each other
You can stand under my Umbrella
You can stand under my Umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
[VERSE 2]
These fancy things,
will never come in between
You're part of my entity
Here for Infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard
Together we'll mend your heart
Because ...
[CHORUS]
When the sun shines
We'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we still have each other
You can stand under my Umbrella
You can stand under my Umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
[BRIDGE]
You can run into my Arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
(Come into Me)
(There's no distance in between our love)
So Gonna let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because ...
[CHORUS]
When the sun shines
We'll shine Together
Told you I'll be here forever
That I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever

8th April 2005 at Kohlmeyer Lawn, New Orleans, USA.
French Quarter Festival, www.fqfi.org/.
Country: United States - New Orleans. Style: Brass Band.
Lineup: Probably include Corey Henry (trombone), George Veals (trombone), Mervin Campbell (trumpet), Travis Hill (trumpet), Vincent Broussard (alto sax), Jeffrey Hills (sousaphone), Terence Andrews (bass d), Terry Nelson (snare d).
Corey Henry, the leader of the Lil Rascals Brass Band, is the nephew of Benny Jones (leader of the Treme Brass Band) and grandson of Chester Jones (drummer with a number of different brass bands) and son of Oswald “Boe Monkey” Jones (grand marshall with the Treme Brass Band). He founded the band in 1987 when he was 10, and it has gone through periods of activity and inactivity since (I think it has been inactive for the last few years). Henry has played with Kermit Ruffin and the Rebirth Brass Band. There is a high degree of interchange between brass bands. Of the others I believe were in this lineup, Mervin Campbell has been in the Treme Brass Band, Vincent Broussard the Rebirth Brass Band and Terrence Andrews the Hot 8 Brass Band. Terrence Andrews and Terry Nelson are members of the extended Andrews family which includes numerous brass band musicians (of which Eldridge Andrews, Glen David Andrews and Derrick Taub have at one time or the other been members of Lil Rascals).
Most of my pre-digital camera photos are of dubious quality (probably more down to the original photo than the digitising process), but I hope they are still worth uploading.
