We're a little bit backed up on getting my concert
photographs up here on The Old Blog. I suppose we will catch up at some point, but this would be a good time to remind you that my concert photographs
can be seen in a much more timely manner by visiting V13Media,
which you can do by following the link. If you'd like an even more direct
route to my photographs, you can visit my personal page over there but using
the following
link. My second visit to the Festival International De Jazz De Montréal would be something to be remembered. To quote Randal Graves, this was certainly to
be the social event of the season. When
I arrived on the scene at 5:30PM, a very large crowd had already gathered. An hour later, I could see heads to the very
end of the festival ground. Two blocks
away. The big winner in this was a band
from Texas, Trio Asesino. “How many of
you are here for the polka-dots?” A loud
cheer was how the crowd responded.
“That’s okay,” said guitarist Adrian Quesada. “We can’t wait to see them too.” They kept
the huge crowd entertained with an hour long set of southern soul music mixed
with some Mexican flair. Most of the
crowd may have in fact been there for the polka dots, but there were many Trio Asesino fans in there as well. Including
one fan who held up a recently purchased album that Quesada had just
mentioned. The thousands upon thousands
who took in the show may now have all known who Trio Asesino was, but the band
took full advantage of the huge crowd and put on a great show. Generating huge cheers for all of their
songs. All of the photographs were taken at f/3.2 while using various different shutter speeds and ISO settings. They were all taken at 200mm. Here are the rest of the photographs that I took of Trio Asesino while they performed the Festival International De Jazz de Montreal.
