this IS what it feels like to be on tour, June 19, 2007
This review is from: Ashod Simonian: Real Fun: Polaroids from the Independent Music Landscape (Paperback)
i've never written one of these things before but felt compelled to after receiving Ashod Simonians "real fun". the photos Ashod was able to capture are at least as interesting as the many famous and even more forgotten subjects of this cross section of independent musicians on the road.
i've had the pleasure of being with Ashod on the road over the last few years, and his pictures bring to life all of the stories, all of the memories, just like they happend yesterday. the reason is, he was there too! he's not just some hired hand to take photos of bands that think they're cool. he has played on stage, and sold merch to no one, and to thousands, and driven the late shift through west texas. Ashod has been paid in beer too!
if someone wants to know what it feels like to go on tour... this book is it. all through the glossy eyes of a glorious polaroid!!
