Amanda Palmer by halkia

Amanda Palmer

10.21 pm: Tonight @realjaco and I went to Amsterdam to see Amanda Palmer in concert (check out her amazing music: http://www.youtube.com/user/amandapalmer).

I didn't take many photos and most I did take were a bit blurred. In this picture Amanda Palmer herself can actually hardly be seen (she was at the piano on the far right at that moment) but it does show other interesting things going on like the sign language interpreter on the left side of the stage (with another sign language interpreter right behind her on the floor). Their presence indicates that it was a rather eccentric show, including the auctioning of a painting that had been dragged all over Europe (it went for 700 euros) and a guest appearance by Amanda Palmer's husband, writer Neil Gaiman (one of @realjaco's heroes).

Needless to say we had a great time. Too bad we had to leave the concert early to relieve my parents-in-law of their babysitting duties.
cor this oozes rock and roll Judith!

Een doventolk bij een rockconcert? Dat heb ik echt nog nooit gezien... erg goed gelukt deze, ik weet hoe moeilijk het is om concertfoto's te maken

Ik moet je eerlijk zeggen dat ik nog nooit van haar had gehoord, maar meer mensen die ik 'ken' zijn er geweest, dus ik ga toch maar eens luisteren.

Klinkt als een leuke avond! Ik heb een boek klaarstaan van Neil, dus ik ben erg benieuwd!:-) Haar ken ik eerlijk gezegd niet.
