infuriating... not so much!

What really happened was, the gentlemen of Cold Blue Mountain only had 20 minutes yesterday evening (around 9:00 p.m., so it may as well have been the dead of night) to get some shots for an imminent press piece. Whoops, night shooting? Okay... Derec and i scouted a couple of sites that would have worked great [in daylight] before happening on one of those "oh of COURSE!" locations that's right in front of the proverbial nose and lit up like a walmart parking lot.

Derec, lead shooter and art director, made a good point about the importance of location for a band like CBM. They're an instrumental metal ("instrumetal," so i coined) band, and aren't grungy enough for a graffiti-covered warehouse, but not indie enough for a field of wheat. So you can imagine our complete satisfaction with this sterile, corrugated metal industrial plant right off a main street in town. Cars driving by were honking at us like we were rock stars - oh wait... we were!
