This week was so busy I never got around to posting more concert shots. Keep checking back; pics are in the tube.
In the meantime I have fallen in love with this shot. Luuuuv my veggie drinks and was super excited to see these readily available at various London markets.
Since the pre-teen years my favorite Danish band has been D-A-D.
Previously recording under the name D i s n e y l a n d A f t e r D a r k they had a very unique sound - rock, punk, and country was thrown in one giant mixing bowl with sarcasm, politics, and humor, and out came the most amazing sound, dubbed "CowPunk".
Anyone that ever had the (questionable?) pleasure of driving around the country side with me have undoubtedly been exposed to - a) my dorky sense of humor that prompts me to yell "BØF" ("steak" in Danish) at the first sight of a cow, and - b) me singing "Counting The Cattle".
The latter Ladies and Gentlemen...

A couple of weeks ago they performed at Copenhagen Olympic Festival.
There are a few settings where being short and blond with a humongus smile is beneficial thus I somehow made my way to the fourth, third, second, and ultimately front row while snapping away, protecting my gear AND face against the bouncing crowds, while singing along at the top of my lungs.
It. Was. A. Blast!
I hope you enjoy this series of Copper, truly a world class guitarist.

Please stay tuned for follow-up Blogs on the rest of the band over the next couple of days.
I'll leave you with a few videos:
You Won't Change
Bad Craziness (LIVE)
Counting The Cattle (oooooold live version)
NOW tell me: What kind of dorky little rituals do YOU honor?
Copenhagen is hosting the 2009 Olympic Congress. The city was celebrating by hosting sports events and concerts downtown. Friday was the BIG day, with delegations pitching their bids, and the IOC voting whom gets to host the 2016 Games.
Congratulations Rio de Janeiro!
I have a few Blogs of live performances coming. Managed to bag quite a few good ones, which wasn't easy, considering everyone around me were bouncing, dancing, cheering, singing. Oh yes, Copenhageners love their music.
Remember Barbie Girl? Around the World? and Turn Back Time (from the movie Sliding Doors)?
I am obsessed with life, photography, and traveling (in that order). A little bit country and quite a bit of RockStar, a connoisseur of life, chocolate, and fine wine, I am blessed with an incredible amount of aDORKable genes, believe in the power of laughter, that Friends Are Family, and that happiness is a choice.
I reside between a lake and a castle just outside the Danish capital but travel every chance I get. Am fascinated by people, art, architecture, nature, and other cultures... With so much to see and do around the world there is no time to be bored, and my Blog reflects this
Although specializing in Portraiture and Boudoir I will shoot anything my heart desires. Photography has always been my favorite way of expression, to preserve memories by capturing a special moment in time.
My passions include volunteer and fundraising, and I serve on the Board of several charitable organizations.
Pull up a chair, make yourself comfortable, and please leave a note :o)
