bassbloke Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Recent stop gap promo shots taken on a sunny afternoon in Hoxton. [attachment=45068:26125_10...095233_n.jpg] Quote
Legion Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 (edited) A friend of the singer took this at a gig the other night and I thought it looked so nice I'm tempted to suggest we use it as a promo type shot...sort of missing the drummer though, but thats actually good as we had someone stand in for our usual drummer that night anyway!

Here's how not to do it.[/quote] Im guessing My avatar should go up for; "These Brits were too dumb to even FIND the brick wall that the garage doors are attatched to!" laugh ot loud stuff/comments here... good one Or...Prehaps...."Jeremy put his shades on and PROOVED he was the "coolest"one" Quote
whynot Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Came across some old promo stills towards the end of last year. I'm the one on the left looking a little vacant. This was mid 80's German new wave period. You should have seen the one Polydor chose from the same shoot for the first single and album inner sleeve... embarrasing is not the word. But we were a good live band. Quote
Huw Foster Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 This thread just reminded me of this: Genius. Quote

guybrush threepwood Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Hmm, went for a 'chap' look with this, but I just look like a Geography teacher (2nd from the left) [attachment=45084:6_edit.jpg] Quote
niceguyhomer Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Here's a couple of my main band Silver Dogs - I'm the fat ugly one on the left of the standing shot. Quote
teej Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Here's one from a series of photos of Red Jackson busking in Guildford. The photographer handed us some fairly straight prints afterwards (he was working in a camera shop) and then posted these photoshopped ones on flikr. We use this one on all our promo material - we think it captures the 'romance' of the street band combined with a retro feel appropriate to an outfit playing '40s-'50s rhythm'n'blues. Also has the advantage that I'm not in it. Quote
Duarte Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) I love this picture. From left to right there is always something going on. 3 Band members, little boy coming to give us money, and the parents sending him on his way...awesome. Edited March 19, 2010 by Duarte Quote
velvetkevorkian Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 All the biceps on show here are making me feel very inadequate. Quote

ThomBassmonkey Posted March 27, 2010 Author Posted March 27, 2010 One from our last photo shoot (that inspired this thread). This is just the first one, many thanks to the might Chris Seddon in Derby who took these shots and was a top bloke. Quote
Soloshchenko Posted March 27, 2010 Posted March 27, 2010 (edited) My band, Pencil In. www.pencilin.co.uk I'm the rather miserable looking soul on the right. Edited March 27, 2010 by Soloshchenko Quote
AndyTravis Posted April 15, 2010 Posted April 15, 2010 These were taken by Karen McBride, a fantastic photographer. The band is the same, we just have 2 violinists now, and a new name. Trav Quote
