My spot in the Gonerfest program this year

Check out my ad for the gonerfest program this year (above) then if you want, check out my gonerfest photos after I take them later this month. The photo I used for the ad is of Thee Oh Sees and was taken at gonerfest 6 last year at the Hi Tone |[thee oh sees at gonerfest 6 photos on kandicook.com]|. This seemed to be a well-liked photo (I may be tooting my own horn here, but I was very proud to see this photo elsewhere on the internet: Their Bated Breath, Lemon Ice Forever, Maximum Rocknroll) plus Trip seemed to really like it… so… in it went.

I’m very excited about Gonerfest this year (it’s Sept 22-26, 2010) and am honored (and feeling much more confident) to be photographing the insanity once again. With the lack of sleep and huge crowds it may be inevitable, but I swear I’m going to try really hard not to end up with the worst debilitating flu I’ve ever had like last year and end up blogging about how PTI makes me anxious. I might even nerd out and take vitamins. Maybe I should start now to build up my immune system. Would that work?
