Miss Pole Dance Australia 2010
Back in October i took some pictures at Miss Pole Dance Australia 2010 at the Enmore Theatre.
I spent most of my time backstage.
While i’m at it, here’s some photos from last year’s competition.
Here’s some video of this year’s competition.
Kaiser Chiefs at the Enmore
Last night i scored a last minute pass to snap Kaiser Chiefs at The Enmore Theatre.
They’re always a pleasure and a challenge to shoot.
A pleasure because lead singer Ricky is so animated, leaping about the stage with loads of energy. And a challenge for the same reasons, in low coloured lights all that movement is [...]
Sydney Barmy for Russell Brand
Sydney seemed in the grip of Russell Brand fever when he visited last week to perform two sold out nights at the Enmore Theatre and Hordern Pavilion.
He’s got quite the reputation as a ladies man and I got to see the effect he has on womenfolk up close at an after party Time Out hosted [...]
Franz Ferdinand in Sydney
Straight off the plane from Fiji, sunburnt and dog-bitten, i made my way to the Enmore Theatre for Franz Ferdinand.
It was like 2004 all over again with Red Riders in support. It was the debut show of new guitarist, Brad Heald of The Vines. I guess he’s got time on his hands after [...]
Miss Pole Dance 2008
A few weeks ago i had the pleasure of spending some time backstage at Miss Pole Dance Australia 2008.
Evidently pole dancing isn’t the sleazy underground pursuit it once was, with this event held at the 2000 capacity Enmore Theatre with most of the audience made up of women.
Behind the scenes it was relatively calm; lots [...]
Peaches live at the Enmore Theatre
Here’s some photos of Peaches from her gig at The Enmore Theatre last night.
She’s a great performer, always great fun to photograph.
It was back in 2003 i first chanced upon a gig of hers in the room next to The Metro.
With statuesque beautiful blonde dancers waving strap on prosthetic penises it [...]
Arcade Fire (finally) in Sydney
It’s been a while since i’ve had a serious case of nerves before shooting a gig, but they kicked in before shooting Arcade Fire at the Enmore Theatre the other week.
It wasn’t that i was anxious about the photos, it was the culmination of years of anticipation for finally seeing the band play live.
I discovered [...]
Nick Cave and Grinderman
Here’s some photos from Nick Cave’s gig at The Enmore Theatre tonight.
Nick Cave is a genuine Australian music legend. Unlike many of his generation who lost their mojo and grew complacent and boring from success, Nick Cave is still filled with more passion and venom than most half his age. His unique style and broad [...]
Noel Gallagher solo in Sydney
I saw Noel Gallagher perform at the Enmore Theatre last night. He was in semi-acoustic mode, backed by Gem Archer on guitars and Terry Kirkbride on persussion.
Back in school i was rather obsessed with Oasis, well their first two albums. I kind of lost interest after that. So it was a treat to [...]
Jet Shine On
Jet played their first Sydney show since December 2004 at The Enmore Theatre last night.
They’re still in fine form, without much change to the usual Jet retro-rock formula.
Their new album Shine On will be out October 3rd, the new single Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is (myspace video) will no doubt get [...]
