had a rushed spaghetti carbonara lunch in a german/italian.
and arrived at the small venue that the arctic monkeys would be playing at/ i would be photographing in.
was pleasantly surprised to find that 'the mystery jets' were playing as well (supporting): if i'd known i would have brought their prints with me to give them.
they had said on weds that they were off to germany but i didn't do the maths.
had a slightly more difficult shoot with the arctic monkeys than before: what with the nature of american cover shoots being what they are: there's a very specific criteria i have to fulfill: brightly lit shots with lots of eye contact, everyone squeezed tightly together etc...
but had a good shoot regardless.
it was good to see them again.
they are doing SO well winning awards and accolades everywhere.
was sad to miss the gig but saw and photographed the soundcheck.
caught a quick drink with the (photo)crew and clients and got delivered back to frankfurt airport by sandra in time to be delayed for a few hours.
although we were only in frankfurt a night, all our german crew that made my shoot happen and run so smoothly, were so warm and welcoming.
strangely feel like we made a few unexpected new friends.
i like germany.
wish i had more shoots to do there.
back to the factory for midnight.
mrs.perou was out at a party and paul and lou were there in her place.
didn't actually get to sleep till mrs.p got back as i was keeping one ear open for the boys.
bis später jeder.
