Marshmallow Spike played in Yotsuya last night--their first show inside the Yamanote. Tod took lots of photos.
They get better and better every time I see them. MJ even smiled last night while she played and her MC patter had the audience cracking up. Sweaty men on trains, indeed...
And they know who the fans are: Yoshi dedicated "Stolen Umbrella" (download the MP3) to me last night with a quick "for Kristen" before playing the first chords, and he gave me his backstage pass after the show. (Am I almost famous now?) MJ's pass went to Tracey, who also got her CD signed. We're such groupies.
The next show is in Yokohama on August 11th. See you there?
Thanks so much for coming!
And for taking the pics Tod-ster!
Those photos are awesome!! Some of the lighting effects are magical!! Plus I like the way the photos are completely focussed on the band... (and not the rest of us ratbags in the crowd. ^.^ )
Chick bassists are cool. There must be some science behind that. Good photography, too.
Great photos. I like the blue series.
