In The City Day Two

Posted by paul - 02/12/08 at 10:12:25 am

Day Two. Sunday October 5th. Everywhere.

Technically its day one of In The City as The Warehouse Project was the launch party, but its day two for me and forever shall be.

I spent the majority of the early hours of sunday fighting with an painfully slow ibook, but onto my ‘final day’ at In The City.

Day started off meeting Shirlaine Forrest again and Gary Wolstenholme , awesome DiS photographer who kindly let me tag along with him as I did not know the area that well plus I never planned to flip between venues all night, quite the rush as it goes, having to deal with the different light setups various venues had.

Shot a few bands, before heading down to the NME show at South with Gary and Danny North (yes another namecheck) to shoot Detroit Social Club, then I legged it to Night and Day for first two songs of the ace Spinto Band then legged it back to South for Little Boots, this is pretty much the way it went from here on.

It was a bit mad for Little Boots, a ton of photographers flashing away at the poor lass in a very tight space,  then it was back to the mansion and  off home at the unruly time  of five in the morning.

Dananananaykroyd at the Barfly

Some of my best shots so far were of Dananananaykroyd at Sŵn including the wall of cuddles and their raucous selves.

Sŵn probably tops In The City for myself in terms of bands I wanted to see and shoot, had a great time.

Click here for all sets on flickr from Sŵn Festival 2008, including Dananananaykroyd, Johnny Foreigner and Rolo Tomassi among others.

Dananananaykroyd running about the place as if they owned it, which they did on bonfire night.

Quite the varied lineup with I Am Austin, Polly Mackey and You Love Her Coz She’s Dead put on by Don’t Die Just Yet at Central Station, Wrexham.
