Luna – Chinatown
	Found at skreemr.com

Today’s photo goes out to kate, who automatically gets a free copy of this photo, along with whoever is the lucky winner of the loser’s lottery. Kate is a huge luna fan, and i promised her i would dig through my archives to find this negative.

When Luna made their farewell tour through cleveland on the way to their final gig in NYC, they stopped by the beachland ballroom. i was lucky enough to get the call to photograph the show.

it was bittersweet to say the least. a band that i idolized, was playing three feet in front of me again. playing the same songs that have floated in and out of my consciousness for around two decades. playing them like i had seen them so many other ohio nights. but this night. this was the last. this was the last time i would hear the strains of “chinatown” lulling a crowd of misfits into a state of… might-fit.

the song attached to today’s photo is just that song. Chinatown.

thanks for the years, fellas.

	Lucinda Williams – Mamas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys

okay, today’s photo doesn’t have a deep meaningful story or anything like that, which i think is perfectly fine. sometimes in life (well, most of the time) you do things not because you have some big picture thing going on. sometimes, you have to do things just because they are fun.

i was at a wedding this weekend, and i saw beranda had gotten her hands into the hat table. i thought the hat totally set off her dress, so i grabbed her and had her give me a cowgirl pose in passing.

the song for today? just another fun one. lucinda williams doing “mama don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys..” i just thought it fit the mood.
