It was great to see Damo Suzuki on the tour that was planned during the 12 weeks spent in hospital at the start of this year. It was amazing to capture this very human journey of resilience , energy and focus. As a filmmaker getting know Damo Suzuki and Elke Morsbach during the time of Damo's recovery with Colon Cancer has been inspiring and motivational.

Currently in post production and still organically capturing moments . I look forward to sharing this Music Documentary with you all.

ILYSB (STRIPPED), recorded live at the Lyric Theatre in Los Angeles.

It was great to see Joseph Arthur in Manchester, after such a long time, playing at the Manchester Deaf Institute, November 9th! An incredibly talented songwriter, poet, and painter, the last time Joseph Arthur was live at the Manchester Deaf Institute was way back in 2009 – with the Lonely Astronauts .

 

 

Wearing a military style jacket with white lapels and red collar and gold buttons, Joseph Arthur entered the stage with a buzzing energy, wearing his shades for the majority of the show. Joseph played a really great mixture of songs that he has written over the years, all equally through provoking, poignant and universal. This resonated and keeps the same crowd coming back to the shows. The faces were familiar and excited to see Joseph back in the U.K. Let’s hope to see him back a little sooner next time!

 

Throughout the night the crowd was entranced, and there were emotional moments and tears, especially on the last track “In the Sun” – taken from album Come To Where I’m From – Joseph Arthur walked off the stage and walked towards the crowd and merged with them. Everyone sang along. “Honey and Moon” was another old favourite, released on the album Redemption’s Son in 2002.

It was a very memorable evening with regards to the political state of affairs with Donald Trump now in President-Elect. Arthur recited a poem and commenced to play his “Campaign Song”.

 

 

A neat cover by Lou Reed was played also “Walk on the Wild Side”. This also went down well with the crowd.

 

Joseph Arthur created his well-awaited painting on stage, which – if you check out on his Instagram – seems to have a Trump style hair cut vibe.

More of Joseph Arthur’s art can be purchased here via Sugar press:

Tom Odell came to Leeds O2 Academy on Tuesday, November 8th. He arrived on stage at 9:15pm with a tailored black suit and red shirt. The lights were low. The screams of the fans were intense. “We love you Tom!” was chanted as he took a seat and started to play “Still Getting Used To Being On My Own”. Melodic piano notes and heart breaking melancholic lyrics filled the room as the crowd became silent. 

 

 

“Concrete”, fourth song in the set, Odell unexpectedly got up and stood on two boxes that had been set down in the centre of the floor, propped up against the stage. A song of self-destruction and relationships breaking down, it was easily one of the favourites pieces of this evening.

• MANFROTTO FIG RIG Link to my wonderful Fig Rig - For any filmmakers wanting steady images - this product served me very well on my last visit. lots of walking and talking, really smooth camera work.

 

More info on the fig rig: Smoothly supports the camera and acts as a frame to mount all the accessories including zoom controllers, mics, mixers, lights, monitors, arms. A circular frame with a crossbar to mount most mini DV cameras, the Fig Rig becomes part of the body to produce smooth, steady traveling shots.

As the operator walks, his/her muscles and tendons absorb all the shocks, transferring only fluid movements to the camera. As there are no straps or harnesses attached to the Fig Rig, and quick and wide movements can be made within the same shot from ground-level to overhead, in one smooth movement. The camera, accessories and operator become one, allowing you to film scenes quickly and unobtrusively. With the Fig Rig your creativity is virtually limitless.
