thank you to everyone who showed up for the photo shoot at the armory yesterday.
I'm not sure if everyone knew, but the girl following us around is an awesome writer for the Boston Phoenix.
I can't wait to see that article!
After getting home, i quickly processed the photos (had to do it twice..booo) and basically, only made them smaller and lowered the quality and added my logo.
I'm at work so I don't have everyone's emails, feel free to post it here and I can send you the hidden link.
I also would love your help in choosing photos for the art show.
I'm supposed to send my top 10 or something but i'm really not sure..i asked aaron to help me too.
oh, and if the band is ok with it, maybe you want to tell me your band faves?
I need the favorites out of all the pics i took (including promos)
what do you guys think?
~~
thank you to all the boys who helped me carry my equipment
thank you to the band for buying me lunch and freshly squeezed orange juice!
it was an exhausting day (complicated by me being sick) but I had a blast and hope you did too.
I think the funniest part of the day was getting the NY fetish model to pose with Fountains of Wayne
heh

if i were to sell anything with your face on it and make $$$ rest assured I will share the wealth with my models!

thanks for taking me down carina, I had a fun time! It was awesome hanging with mark/josh/dave/jay/steve....and satu, mmmmmm.
[Apr 18,2005 10:10am - litacore ""]
Hekseri had a frickin' BLAST!
Pia seems nice, too. There seemed to be models from all over the place!
I felt a little underdressed, but then I just flashed my Derek Zoolander pout (Blue Steel, Magnum, etc.) and knew everything would be all right
--it'd be funny having a Phoenix write-up on us before we've even played our first show, haha

larissa looks really good in the photos I saw of her. I didn\'t see the group shots of hekseri cause I was cleaning and vacuuming as you can see from tom\'s shots.

I wasn't scowling enough in some of them, heh
my banana jawline makes me look like Diamanda Galas. Cool, because I LOVE D.G.!

Carina, mark.guy @ gmail.com hit me up with that secret URL
I had a BLAST yesterday hanging out with everyone Tom, Dave, Josh, Jay, and Steve. We all need to hang out again!
BTW, TheRev pwns teh vacuum instagib!
[Apr 18,2005 10:48am - DaveFromTheGrave ""]
I wanan live in that armory. I'd probably get cancer after about 20 minutes from all the asbestos in the air but it's would be wicked fuckin metal.
[Apr 18,2005 10:50am - dreaminginexile ""]
I'd love to set up a show in the Gym, but I'd be afraid of it falling down...
Maybe in the Firing Range would be better, that room was SUPER HUGE and really fackin scary!
[Apr 18,2005 12:32pm - TerribleNightSteve ""]
This was pretty fun and we got some cool pictures. Thanks to the previously mentioned RTTP guys and Carina for letting me tag along all day.
[Apr 18,2005 12:34pm - litacore ""]
have a show in that lightless Hellraiser basement! (you'd probably need supernaturally hell-spawned electricity BUT HEY that's especially metal)

[Apr 18,2005 1:11pm - the_reverend ""]
everyone rules for going there and posing for carina.
my favorite is one of the RTTP ones with the \"jacked\" DaveFTG posing with the sun behind them. I believe that I\'m going to put that one in my next newsletter if dave/carina and aok with that.
[Apr 18,2005 2:40pm - ~Carina~ ""]
yeah, I did get pics of all the guys and i was disappointed that not many other photogs wanted to take pics of guys. It was like a meat market though, with models lined up and the photographers walking up and down and picking and choosing
i just picked whoever was just sitting there, i actually felt bad when i kept on seeing the same people sitting down.
As for having a show there...umm didn\'t you notice (actually i KNOW you did) how every once in a while something from the ceiling would fall...heh
damn my poor nose and lungs...
[Apr 18,2005 3:09pm - the_reverend ""]
so.. you\'d be on the team with all the kids in the wheelchairs?
ps: I figured out the whole \\\'\\\'\\\'\\\'\'\\ thing.
should be fixed tonigh.
[Apr 18,2005 3:43pm - ~Carina~ ""]
yes, so my team might lose or we might pull a mighty ducks ( i didn\'t see the movie, but i\'m assuming)
it\'s cool that you use the same thing as me because now you can fix things
oh and what about being able to make thread eh?
=)
[Apr 18,2005 3:44pm - the_reverend ""]
making threads and searching are on my \"to do\" list for tonight.
[Apr 18,2005 4:20pm - BSV ""]
thanks for giving me the opportunity to take part carina! i was a little out of my element when i got there, it's weird being a model, i could do it but i feel like a fuck going up to photographers being like yo take my picture now or whatever. i'd love to do it again. christraper and i were drinking whiskey like most drug afflicted models or whatever. i think i taught myself a lesson going to the shoot, i'm very happy i did it, thanks again!
[Apr 18,2005 6:13pm - succubus ""]
ok so i was contacted about the article i guess it will be in this wednesday's phoenix!
whoah!
[Apr 18,2005 7:23pm - the_reverend ""]

[Apr 18,2005 7:25pm - the_reverend ""]

yeah man, it was worth it just to see this building. also, meeting all these people was really cool. Carina kicks ass.
[Apr 20,2005 5:33am - TerribleNightSteve ""]
Sorry Carina, I'm technologically retarted and don't even know what pm'ing means. Thanks for the link! Definitely some good shots in there.:bow:
[Apr 20,2005 8:35am - ~Carina~ ""]
coulda
shoulda
woulda
but didn't
anyhow swamplord, i think it turned out great with who came, you're too shy anyhow so you would have felt akward.
anyhow, there is a piece in today's phoenix but it's about the place...the armory itself...then there will be another article on what we all did on sunday. i'll keep everyone posted when that'll be out. i'll also keep people posted about when the photos will be on display in the gallery.
I'm trying to choose my pieces now and again, those of you that saw the pics, please feel free to tell me your favorites. I know Pia already told me some of myne she wants to use as well.
later on i will be posting some pics i think i want to choose as well. I'm working on those tonight!
[Apr 20,2005 10:08am - litacore ""]

a lot of really cool old school thrash bands took pics outside though (although Deicide usually had religious props)
still, we look way too comfy in the warm weather

The Somerville Armory Foto Festival press release...
Imagine a giant abandoned castle like Armory filled with over 30
models,
six bands,15 photographers and two make up artist. Where every person
agrees to not charge for their talents. In exchange everyone gets to
try new looks and techniques. But mostly everyone gets new images to
update their portfolios or their CD covers and press images.
The magic of the event was not only was there no money exchanged but
also that there were varying degrees of talent involved. Some of
Boston's best commercial photographers as well as heavy metal
photographers worked side by side helping each other by holding
reflectors,sharing lighting gear and techniques. Models of various
degrees worked arm in arm,sharing the limelight as well as tips of the
trade. All this without a hint of cattiness. Musicians from super pop
fame to unsigned death metal acts all lined up knowing that their promo
kits where going to be packed with new images of many different styles.
The Somerville Armory was recently purchased by Joseph Sater (owner of
the Middle East Cafe) and ex-rock musician turned real estate developer
Allan Carrier. with over 2,900 square feet space to be converted to a
community arts center.
What to do with all this talent and all the images? An art show of
course. From May 3rd to may 16th At the Zeitgeist Gallery, 1353
Cambridge st. Inman Sq. Camb. All the photographers will be displaying
their best images from their day at the arsenal, in a group show
called; “Armory”. Not only will prints grace the walls, but two video
installations as well. One screen will show live footage of the event
in all its glamourous mayhem. The other screen will have a video slide
show of the photographers favorite images from the days event.
The Armory Foto-festival was created and organized by Pia Schachter

christraper, you made all of our metal group shots less metal by smiling in almost all of them. hahahahahaa. you freaking jibba smokah.
[Apr 21,2005 3:12pm - succubus ""]
yes what tom said dammit!!
[Apr 21,2005 3:15pm - Christraper ""]
yea.....sorry. wont happen again i promise.
[Apr 21,2005 3:33pm - Christraper ""]
I was nervous because im not used to getting my picture taken for anything so i figured id have a few drinks but then i had a few too many. And then you guys kept telling me to make a mean face and give the horns like every fucking shot which wouldve made me chuckle even if i was sober.
[Apr 21,2005 3:37pm - paganmegan ""]
I think the very idea of a raper of christ grinning is pretty funny in and of itself
[Apr 21,2005 3:40pm - Christraper ""]
exactly. you might even ask yourself "what was christraper so happy about?"
[Apr 21,2005 3:40pm - Christraper ""]
but then if you look closely youll see the flask in my hand.....
[Apr 21,2005 6:47pm - BSV ""]
cool, i just deleted a bit of the url and got to look. most of them are pretty sweet. sorry if i pissed everyone off having some dope and whiskey, it sorta helps me get in the mood, hope it wasn't wicked unprofessional. my only complaint for that whole day would lack of communication. i never knew where anyone was or what we were doing. me and jay spent most of our time searching for people, that building is like a maze at times, plus i didn't like wandering through other peoples sets. i hope i did everything right, maybe i shoulda stood closer to the front and center on the final group shots, no one told me to do so so i stayed. my mothers pissed i don't have a solo shots, oh well, maybe next time, if my rep isn't trashed for being and irresponsible drinking drugging metalhead. :p
[Apr 21,2005 8:37pm - succubus ""]
sorry but you guys got there late and after we had taken a good amount of photos. I tried getting individula shots of everyone..unfortunately quite a few times i was looking for you and was told you were outside then towards the end of the day i was absolutely drained...if it's any concilation, i really like the ones with you in the middle with the fisheye doing the claw and horns and picked a couple of those as my faves.
