In the last of my SXSW posts I bring you The Black Lips live from Hotel Vegas. Their show was packed but I managed to get in the back. I have photographed the Black Lips a few times and it’s always a crazy show but the combination of dust and silly string and beer led to an extra wild show. At one point I tried to photograph Cole crowd surfing only to get trapped with my legs smashed between bodies and the stage while my back actually lay on the stage and I just shot looking straight up at Jared while he played. The light was so harsh and weird that it didn’t make for great photos but there is some pretty awesome stuff here anyway. Fun show.

And that’s it! SXSW photos are done. We get back to your regularly scheduled Driven By Boredom program tomorrow! But until then…

Check out all the pictures from the Black Lips at Hotel Vegas at SXSW.
