Photographer’s Note

This was taken in a small live house when I joined in the live show. It was too bad I didn't take a shot when he was singing.

Audience, mostly ladies in front seats at that time, stopped drinking and stayed still to listen to the band. I uploaded it to show you some part of life in Japan.

There are many live houses in Nagoya, from very popular one called "blue note" where you get charged skyscraper high, to one like this where you pay 500yen for a seat and order some drinks or snacks that wouldn't let you pay more than 3000yen...if you don't drink too much. If you are lucky, you can find some great musicians there, and most of them can't make a living just by performing in a live show like this. I did a back chorus and I did it for a cup of coffee.

Wonderful. In Shanghai it's hard to find such a place to kick back, order a beer and listen to some good tunes. I really like the atmosphere in your shot...it gives the perfect feeling of being there and listening to the music. Good work!

PS: posted a workshop image with a bit of cropping and different colors.

Well done! Were you following my advice? You know this one has a really cool "look" to it, a "pro" look, with those dark, dark shadow areas and the lovely reddish light. Like a photo for a record sleeve... Bravo! Francis
