MTV Australia Video Music Awards
I photographed the MTV Australia Video Music Awards at Acer Arena on Sunday night. It was an elaborate affair with big name attendees like Fergie, Pink, Good Charlotte, 30 Seconds to Mars, Nicole Richie and a host of Australian bands and b-grade ‘celebrities’. Despite the big names, taking pictures at an event like this is [...]

SXSW interactive partying
Ow, my head hurts. Too many vodka + redbulls at the Purevolume/Virb party last night. It was a good party though. It’s the last day of the interactive conference today, then music starts tomorrow. A whole fresh bunch of music types will be arriving in town as the geeks are shipping out.

Jack Awards Nominations 2007
Last night i attended the Jack Awards nominations at the Gaelic Club. I was taking photos as per usual. The music industry crowd seemed to enjoy the free booze and networking but were rather bemused by Airbourne’s big pub rock show. I love their over the top show, fireworks and all, but most of the [...]

Fellas from Jet, Eskimo Joe and The Living End. Darren from Gerling and Ms Flowerpot. You may recognise [...]
