i got to shoot the legendary Thurston Moore with his band last week Thurston is of course famous for his Sonic Youth work, and the Sonic Youth drummer is in this band line up along with the bass player from My Bloody Valentine. I really loved this gig as i’m a great fan of his solo albums (as well as Sonic Youth) lots of the songs were extended rambles which was great. Photographers are usually only allowed to take photos during the first three songs. […]
