Three Blind Wolves

Wednesday, 8 February 2012, 14:28 / Lauree

In November 2011, Three Blind Wolves were in the US for the first time. They were kind enough to sit with us for a few songs before their gig in the North Star Bar Victorian Dining Room.

The Philadelphia date was added at the last minute and I decided to take advantage of the opportunity and combined efforts with PhillyCAM. In about 10 days time, I was able to coordinate the shoot, a task made easier by great friends in Philly, a fabulous crew and of course, the band and their managers!

Songs:
Farmer with a Pulse
Helpless (Neil Young)
When the Garden Gets Near

This was a combined effort of Arlington Independent Media and PhillyCAM!

Final day of shooting Andy’s film

Monday, 3 May 2004, 2:46 / Lauree

we’re done shooting the film. I am soooo tired. about 12 hours today killed me yet again, but we’re done and I’m glad. I don’t think I did a great job but Andy seems pleased so I guess that is ok.

The FLYERS won and that’s good too.

still soaking in stupid emotions from the party last night.

I need some sleep…..

Andy’s film shoot and trying to be social

Sunday, 2 May 2004, 4:30 / Lauree

such a long ass shoot today but I think we’re doing ok and getting what we need to get. I forgot sunscreen on the backs of my calves and as a result am severely burned. silly me.

despite exhaustion, I made it over to Mike and Scott’s party. A little later than I planned and I didn’t expect so many people to be there. I really felt out of place and wanted to leave, but I figured my alternative was to sit home alone like I normally do unless I go out to a see a band. I think I did ok with the party thing although I find it easier to be in a room full of strangers watching a band as opposed to pretty much the same thing at a party. I dunno. feeling anti-social I suppose.

I almost left 5 times, but ended up being the last to leave. weird. but that was partly due to the mix of a beer or two, a glass of wine and complete exhaustion. I guess I wanted to make sure I was ok to drive. But then I felt silly and overstayed my welcome a little…at least in my mind.

Carroway acoustic at DC9

Scott and Mike played an acoustic set at DC9 tonight. I was so tired after shooting Andy’s film all day.

I like DC9. I just wish it was in a better part of town. I was kind of the only one there in time to see their set, and somehow I really didn’t even want to be there. I don’t know, hard to explain. I stayed a lot longer afterward than I had thought I would.

Apparently, those guys are having a party tomorrow night. We’ll see how the shoot goes tomorrow and if I’ll go.

Late nights and early mornings

Tried once again to flip back and forth between IOTA and Galaxy Hut, but it didn’t really work. Janice and I did stop by the hut for a few songs of one of the Teenbeat bands, but wanted to make sure we were at IOTA to see Scott and his mega 10 minute set. 15 songwriters in one night, a bit rough and hard to handle, but managed just fine. I somehow stayed until the very end, so did Scott. I’m really glad I did, as I was able to talk with some people and get to know more of the people doing the great musical stuff in the DC/Arlington area.

ugh, gotta get up early for a saturday to meet with andy and robin about andy’s film we’re working on.
