when I went to melbourne …

… i had some fun – my camera was there to prove it. I was only briefly there with my band ‘the fifth nation’, but i got a taste of Melbourne and I loved it. I took some photos while I was there and a few turned out alright. Below is Dave Powys from ‘Sounds Like Chicken’. He played some songs by himself at our gig – I really liked them. Plus, he was nice to me and remembered my name so … thanks Dave.
I like this photo cause it really captures the mood of the place and also, I reckon, the mood of his songs.

Dave Powys

On the second day we were in melbourne, another Dave (not one pictured above) took us around the town. We came across this little alley where they had obviously let some street artist go mental. It was great. I took some shots – they don’t really capture how intricate it all was but I guess they give you an idea. I dig street art when it is done well (tags and stuff like that can be on its way). They did something like this in Sydney a few years ago, but all over parts of sydney city. so rad. Anyway, click on some of the shots below to check them out.
