Bon Iver Live!












Bon Iver had a concert at Deer Lake Park last May.

Amazing is an understatement! They are one of the few bands who actually sound better live. To quote my sister, "What do you expect? They're not a pop group."

I bought a Canon AT-1 just before the concert out of desperation, since the venue doesn't allow professional cameras (the 5D isn't exactly petite, and neither is the 400D..tough to sneak past security). I figured they wouldn't recognize a professional camera from the 1970's anyway. It worked! HA!

We drove to the venue to Devendra Banheart's 'Lover,' got lost somewhere along the way and fed the parking meter $8 or so that we didn't end up using.

Also, hipster girlfriend dance battle ensued on our left for the entire duration of the concert.
