Tears of a Clown (Steve Gray)

An old shoot with Steve I never got to posting. We got to shoot in his newly and temporarily obtained photo studio. This was a hard shoot for me because 1.) It was me in a plain backdrop, so it was all me, I didn't have anything or anyone to interact with...and 2.) I was trying to be super expressive...and at times happy? which is hard for me.

I was actually very happy with this shoot. Hoping to get more pictures of the outfit considering I made it, and my fashion design page needs an update of some kind. Oh well, picture time!



*I really need to dye my roots -.-




*my favorite

Lol silly Steve is obsessed with tulle now. He used it in another girl's shoot, and he came into Hancock while I was working today and bought some more.

I'm home!

So it's Turkey Massacre break. I've got the week off so I came home. It's nice to be here more than a weekend. However, because of the amount of time off I have I decided to pick up some hours at my old job, seeing as they can use all the help that can get. So most my break will be spent at Hancock Fabrics. It's a little busy, but not so bad. Plus I could use the spare cash.

Not much is going one in my personal life. I got my first speeding ticket recently, which totally sucks. And it's the last month of school, so things are getting crazy. Lots of final projects and exams. But at least my Christmas break will be off to a good start...

To my surprise I've got another concert planned. The Birthday Massacre is coming to Omaha the first week of winter break. So I'm super excited to see them with my friends Angie and Eric. I have a few more friends going, but those are only two I know are going for sure. It's gonna be great. I've seen them three times before, but they always put on a good show.

They Might Be Giants (Omaha, NE)



So yesterday I got to see They Might Be Giants at the Slowdown in Omaha, NE. By the way, Slowdown, you've been super awesome to me lately. KMFDM, the Smashing Pumpkins, and They Might Be Giants...all since August. You guys are too awesome.

I ended up going to show alone. Which was kinda sad at first. But I meet a girl named Katie who was pretty cool. We both had coffin purses, so that's how we started talking. It was nice not to be alone.

The opening act was Gold Motel. They were actually alright. Gonna have to look them up. And not to fangirl...but the guitarist was beautiful.

TMBG was awesome, no surprises there. They're a really fun group to see live. (Apparently Katie's seen them 6 times. Damn!) There was a lot of conversations between Little John and Big John (that's what I've been calling them all these years, I'm sorry XD). They did a puppet show, which was cute. And I flipped when Little John pulled out the accordion. And we got loot! Katie got a set list and a record the Big John handed her, and a set list. I got Marty's drumstick, which was exciting. I also got Gold Motel's set list.

Picture time!
