Here are couple of shots Brandon was able to get at our very oddly lit Wonderland Ballroom Cinco De Mayo show last month. The sombreros were a big hit; although that was mostly with the girls dancing around afterwards who kept asking to borrow them.
We’ll dig up some video to add, soon — unfortunately, our battery died after two songs at The Red & The Black last weekend, so the selection is slightly limited. But Steve did manage to wrangle together some great audio, including a track you can hear over at our goofy Tumblr site.
Many thanks again to official band photo dude Brandon Jones for making us look all important. I assume, given the cool factor of these pictures, that he spent a fair amount of time Photoshopping in some indie-rock sensibilities, especially on me and Arwen, who get dressed up for shows like we’re going outside to rake leaves.
I don’t think we ever put these up — but they’re Brandon’s latest effort in photo-journalistic excellence, and I thought they’d be worth sharing. Enjoy, and as usual, thank you Mr. Jones.
By the way, we’re reloading a bit with some new songs, a new practice spot, and some other hijinks, but we’ll line up some shows over the next month and keep you posted.
It’s a very busy Saturday for Elementary today, so let’s get right to it. First of all, we’ll be playing tonight at The Red and The Black right here in DC, along with Deville and Heather’s Headache. The show starts at 9pm, and you can get all the venue information you’d like here.
Secondly — and to get you in the mood for a rock and roll show — the world famous Brandon Jones has some new pictures from our last show at The Rock and Roll Hotel. As usual, Brandon makes us look a lot more important than we are (that’s some camera), and he’ll be at the show tonight, so you just might get yourself in one of these fancy pictures if you show up.
But how, you ask, do I get noticed? Here’s a tip — throw on one of the brand new Elementary t-shirts we’ll have at the show tonight! That’s right — we reloaded on our “classic black and white”, and have a pretty cool new one we think you’ll like. For ten bucks, the choice is yours.
So we’ve got new stuff, a new song, and a new place to see us — tonight, at The Red & The Black. See you there, America.
