Though glorious in full color, I decided to process the final set of the year, in a cool black & white treatment – it somehow fits vibe I think…

On top of that, she brought out a local music ensemble group as the lead off set – Sintonía, followed by her billed opener, Geese, and then one of her accompanying musicians, gave the final lead in set to hers, Ben Christophers…and of course then it was Imogen herself, in all of her lanky, prancing, crazy haired madness…incuding in much of her set, supporting instrumentation, etc from the openers on stage again. All this to a packed theatre at the Paramount…loved this show…

It was fun, it was crowded, even in a full up photo pit amongst 9 or so photogs…it was a bit mad – I lost my photo pass before they even came on…thankfully I am acquainted with the security at the Paramont/Moore and they saw my pass at the top of the night – note always make friends w/security! – I was a bit off kilter all night…but it is what it is, and the music was superior as you might expect from this group of pure musicians…
