Nick Cave

Shot at a secret Nick Cave / Grinderman gig in Hove, England, July 2008.

Afterward, I danced with Warren Ellis whilst Noah Taylor dj’ed “Highway to Hell” by ACDC…surely some of my fellow Australians will appreciate the purity of this moment!

Nick Cave belongs to the following groups:

    Thanks Iain, I’ve definitely been inspired by your excellent live shots…need some new lenses in order to do more though!

    Oh, DH, I know! Isnt he just great?
    Its the first time I have ever seen Nick live…although I have run into him in my ‘hood a few times (he lives around the corner from me)...I once saw him down at the beach on a hot sweltering day… whilst everyone else was in bikinis and board shorts… he was there in a pin stripe three-piece-suit and sun glassses…

    You gotta admire the class of the man! x

    how cool is THAT! I used to see him at our local band haunt back in 1983…. he changed my perspective on music from that point on!
