Had a shoot with Hermano last night, at first I was hoping to do a couple of portraits but in the end it was a complete shoot. Portraits and groupshots. Got all 6 bandmembers' portraits, and a bunch of fisheye groupshots. I attached a preview pic here. You might not be able to see, but John Garcia (in the back) had his Danko (SitE) shirt on. He told me how bummed he was not being able to do Invisible on a few shows in Europe. He would have loved to come along, but it didn't happed for some reason. Anyway, this afternoon Loes and I will be going to Den Bosch for the Hermano show, and as a bonus, the manager asked me if I would be able to get there a little earlier so I could do some photo's of the soundcheck (and maybe some portraits too if I'm able to arrange that). All in all, had a great evening, John and the guys are incredibly nice and very funny (ie: dick and fart jokes most of the time) and were very helpful and patient/professional when posing as I really suck at directing people. Also got the Hermano dvd from the manager, so we'll be watching that on Sunday after we do the live viewing first R.

Next time Hermano plays in Holland, I expect all you Dutchies to buy tickets and join us to the concert, because it RAWKED. Bring your own airco to W2 though, it was terrible hot in there. The band was suffering from it as well, but it didn't stop them from giving one of the best shows I have personally ever seen. Besides, the band is also amazing off stage. We met up backstage before and after the show and they're all really laidback, especially John. It was great meeting him and the rest, I nearly fell in love with guitarist Dave, 2nd from the left on Ron's pic, because that guy is seriously on fire on stage! Pulling a Hendrix (playing with his teeth) and busted strings didn't stop him from blowing my mind.
Let's just say, those guys (and gal, ofcourse) REALLY gained a fan. I'm going to start my extended review on MySpace today, will let you know when I finish it.

Went to the Hermano show yesterday in Cologne. Awesome... awesome experience !!! Met John and the band before the show, a friend of mine tourmanaged them a few years ago and he got us on the guestlist. So the club was small but packed (about 300 pers.) and it was freakin' loud and hot. Unbelievable crowd reactions ! The only German show. I liked them on record and now i'm a fan. The real deal. Got the vinyl at the show, wanted to get the cd too but forgot. Oh well.
