The Brewster Brothers at the basement





A wonderful opportunity arose on Saturday night when the Brewster Brothers played the Basement in Sydney and invited me along again. They were great. The music for me never becomes stale or "old" I cannot count how many times I have heard the songs but I really love the music.

The boys had a special guest Grace Knight from the former band of the 80's the Eurogliders, I have included their biggest hit, Heaven for those who wish to see also. The violinists name I never got, but she was excellent. The vibe of the audience was tremendous and for an encore they left their mics on stage and went into the tightly compacted audience and played some tunes as well, to the absolute delight of the audience. They are very talented and much loved by all in attendance. I thank them for the invite, for the opportunities they have presented me and also their friendship.

I am tossing up about getting another camera body and the new Canon 5D Mark II looks very inviting. Though Nikon have been courting me to swap over to them and they loaned me a D3 worth about 6K which I had never previously used. I really liked the low light performance, the clarity and noiseless results. these images were shot on that Nikon D3. They are lending it to me again this coming weekend for 3 more concerts.

I am really hoping to get Stevie Wonder, but am doubtful. I would like to shoot (photographically) Chris Brown and Jordin Sparks who are also visiting. Anyway. it's all good.

Great photos brother. I can't seem to distinguish between those shots & what you normally produce because the quality is mind blowing & the way you display them is just great. Do you now have a preference for one over another?
I must say I'm having great fun with my new toy. It's like someone has turned on the light switch. I might get adventurous & try shooting in RAW. If I can get at least 1/2 as good as the images you produce I'll be happy. (for now)

Hey Tub,

Thanks for your kind words, I cannot lay a prfect statement as to which camera I prefer lest one of the other companies see the quote and take umbridge. Suffice it to say, I love them both, for different reasons. How diplomatic is that!!!

Try Raw, it eats memory but gives wonderful results.
