This has got to be some kind of record...

My photos made it onto Pitchfork 3 times today.

First She & Him.

Then the Mountain Goats.

And now they used one of my Justice photos as a stock photo on a news story.

It's been a good day. And yes, I know I'm behind with my 366 Days photos, and I skipped a bunch of Daily Photo posts. I'll try to catch up with the 366 Days photos later tonight, as well as post my "This Week in Shows" calendar, which I skipped entirely last week. Such is life.

When Pitchfork asked me to do the She & Him show in San Francisco, The Mountain Goats show was the extra incentive that I asked for, in order to make the trip worth it. I'd never seen them before, and figured if I was going up there for three nights to shoot one show, why not do two? The show was amazing (I'll try to write more about it later), and the venue had absolutely gorgeous lighting. I'd say it was pretty close to the Belly Up here in SD, but not quite as big and definitely not as pretty inside.

This was the basis for my trip up to SF this weekend. It was a pretty fun weekend, even after being sick all week. Much thanks to the guy in the second row at the She & Him show who graciously let me stand in front of him to get those shots during the first three songs. I hate being an asshole photographer, so it's much easier when people are nice and let you in front of them for a bit.

More later, but I'm super exhausted from getting up at 5AM (after going to bed at 1AM) to catch a plane back to San Diego and home. Now it's nap time.

I'll be posting a review in a day or two, but for now, feast your eyes on the photos. It's still pretty surreal to see my name and photos up on Pitchfork...
