band + fatty — Another rock shot.

band + fatty — The show was really good, but Grant got in trouble for jumping around on stage too much (seriously) and so this was unfortunately his last show as rhythm guitarist in the band.

band + fatty — Higher!

band + fatty — More of Grant's aerial shennanigans! Pretty high, right?

band + fatty — The Fireworks Go Up record is really, really good, but I've got to be honest with you. I was only there to see one thing:

band + fatty — If you're looking to capture the jump-shots, you gotta shoot with an itchy shutterfinger. I saw movement and snapped figuring Grant was getting ready to launch into another big kick and instead managed to capture this totally awkward (sideway?) leg kick. Hahaha.

band + fatty — ...the craziest, highest rock n' roll jump kick I've ever seen in my life. If only DLR (who lives less than a block away, incidentally) could've been there to see it - he would've wept with joy knowing his heir apparent lives. (This is so wallpaper worth - click here for the hi-res version).

band + fatty — Hahaha. The fact that Fatty and Grant are making eye contact make this "Back to the Future" moment even funnier.

band + fatty — On Friday, I went to see Grant and Fatty in (the now defunct band) Fireworks Go Up play a show at Don Hill's. If you squint, you'll notice two parenthetical blurs in the middle of the stage - those were created by Grant's feet during a double-legged DLR kick that I managed to just barely capture.

band + fatty — Big Fatty the bass player poses with Little Fatty the bass player.

band + fatty — ...and we headed over to Luna Lounge to see the Fatty play bass with Fireworks Go Up.

band + fatty — ...but that doesn't mean they rocked any less harder. After the set, Fatty and the boys packed up their gear and got ready to begin the long drive back to New York City. Me on the other hand...ON TO PART TWO

band + fatty — Hey, the Fatty might not have a horde of raving, fanatical lesbian fans...

band + fatty — Then Fatty's band played.

band + fatty — After hitching a ride to the new hotel (a little closer to town) I bid the band farewell, hopped a cab and headed into town to meet up with Sarah...

band + fatty — Band shot. Scott, Dan and the Fatty. aka - Fireworks Go Up.

band + fatty — On Friday, a whole bunch of us headed over to Arlene's Grocery to see Grant join Fatty in playing with Fireworks Go Up for the first time. (After only five or six appearances as their rhythm guitarist, Grant left due to "creative differences.") Boo.

band + fatty — Fatty's band play!

band + fatty — Saturday we all went to the Knitting Factory to see Fatty's band again.

band + fatty — And then went and saw Fatty's band play at Sin-e.
