Boys of Summer

|| Music: 17: Youth Lagoon ||

Winter break. Lots of free time, and lots of wishing it were summer.

I went through a bunch of pictures from Fort. Here's some of the gents. ((Ladies of FW to come soon))

Civil Wars || 1knewb

Kaitlyn and I drove up to Milwaukee last April to see the Civil Wars at Turner Ballroom. Easily one of the best performances I've seen in a long time. And easily the best Tuesday night all of Spring semester. We got lost and were half an hour late, but somehow ended up right in front of the stage. 1knewb is my favorite concert buddy.

Breathe Owl Breathe 04/12

Went to see Breathe Owl Breathe last year with a bunch of freshman. Got to show them one of my favorite places  in Chicago: Schuba's. It's an old church turned bar and music venue.

Breathe Owl Breathe was a really fun show. And Rach was so superfan. We got a picture of her and the gang with the singer in the background. Classic.

Miltown 12/14

Spent just about half a day visiting the home of some of my favorite people. Got to see a pretty good number of the Milwaukee crowd, and got to (finally) go to the Milwaukee Art Museum, which I was really excited about despite the fact that the building is vaguely reminiscent of a whale...but let's not dwell on that.

Got to hang out with Tim and Soph and mess around in the museum.

Too Much Avett...If that's possible.

 

Music: In Your Light by Timothy Seth Avett as Darling

Two back-to-back nights of Avett Brothers shows. In Milwaukee. It was such an unbelievable weekend. Got to see the ever-hospitable Chris for another weekend of fun, and got to see a couple more of my Milwaukee people. Carolyn came up for the show on Saturday, which was so fun to finally experience one of our favorite bands together.

I was in ecstasy at these shows. If you know me, you know my two favorite things are the Avett Brothers and photography. This was my first show of theirs that I was able to bring my camera. And I was so happy. Ask Chris or Carolyn--they'll tell you. 

I might put more up from this show some other time. It was so hard to pick just a few. 

Posts will likely increase as finals approach.  Best wishes.

Vic + Jo + Sunglasses

Music: The Winner Is by Devotchka
Did a photo shoot with Jo for our History of Graphic Design project on Glamour Magazine. The sophmores were down in studio working on Photo I Final Projects and I forced Vic to take a couple shots, too.

Can't believe the semester is over on Friday. Studio will feel so different once Alyssa and Kyle graduate on Saturday. We're so lucky to have gotten to share a creative space with them. 401 won't be the same without them.

I digress...
