Having a great time at the Music Gallery Club

UPDATE 12.04.2013: freshly cut video added:

 

DISCLAIMER: In this post there are far more photos included than I would normally allow for. This is because I want to give the people who have been there a nice coverage and memories, and not follow some artistic agenda.

It’s almost a week now since we (Nesch, Mona and me) went to Bratislava, shortly after we had a great evening/night in Café Schmid Hansl. After initial hurdles – that we won’t lay out in detail here – we arrived neatly relaxed and eager to spend a nice evening at the Music Gallery Club right in the center of Bratislava.

In the hotel room I felt like a pig in the mud at first – a lot of mirrors and corners, so I just had to try a self… while someone was waiting at the lobby.

I guess Nesch was a little exited as usual, while I was trying to keep track of my multiple cameras and not losing one (have to get that sorted out in the future, but going only with a Canon brick and without some film inside a Leica(-esque) feels … wrong).

At the Music Gallery Club we felt immediately at home and comfortable, ordering some drinks and waiting for the show to start.

It is quite remarkable that I found three really good personal images (in my opinion) on the memory card, the one above and the following two, and that one of them was shot by Mona. I call this a hit rate (33,3%), and I won’t calculate mine ;-)

This was a really remarkable and memorable weekend for me (us), and I am already looking forward to the next occasion. As Nesch already mentioned on facebook, we felt so damn comfortable at this place, and I want to add that I felt even more freaking comfortable with Nesch and Mona – I am really glad to be part of the whole thing. Keep it going…
