Boris and The Melvins Brought the "Twins of Evil" Tour to St. Andrew’s Hall

Time Is A Circle Pit.

The Melvins and Boris at St. Andrew’s Hall

Boris and The Melvins at Saint Andrews Hall in Detroit was a treat for me being I was obliterated on dabs and in a really good mood knowing the next day I would be flying to California. That type of energy should be able to be bottled! It made shooting so relaxing, for the first time ever. Usually, I am anxious and trying to keep myself focused. Luckily I was able to just enjoy myself and photograph the sets and feel special. Knowing Nirvana played this room is a big deal for most of us right? So to have anyone that is connected to them come here and play in the same room, is a pretty big deal. This all plays into my theory that
Time Is A Circle Pit.

I decided to go all Black and white for this show and I think it worked in my favor. I am honestly not a fan of most lighting nowadays. Few will get me to put out massive amounts of color photos. I am more likely to do it with daytime outdoor photos than hall or theatre concerts. Just how it is. These two bands are all photogenic as hell and for playing slower tempos than the punk, hardcore, and death metal shows I usually photograph, it was such a welcomed change of pace.

The Melvins played “Bullhead” and Boris played “Heavy Rocks, both in their entirety. If you ever get a chance to see either of these bands, do not skip. It is a trip.
