OK so I've uploaded the best of the pics I took to my website (I could not get my head round flickr) hopefully the names of the files are self-explanatory (pp.. for prospect park, sidewalk... for evening show, followed by band names in each case). I think they're around 4MB each.

The photos of Dollar Bill taken by Bjam and the best of those already put up here have been transferred to my facebook account. So if anybody wants to be FB pals then the link is here. Come get some!

[gush]Back in London and still missing the experience. I had a whale of a time, everybody was lovely, so many highlights (including playing with TRG and DB&tIP, obviously) inclduing, but not limited to -
Hearing
FBF do 'The Thing Most Easily Forgotten', and meeting Mrs FBF
Niveous playing 'Bridget' (VIYH upload that session, damn it!), your friends at the Sidewalk Cafe seemed really lovely. Thanks so much for organising this it was a blast.
Noah's awesome acoustic set, and top pocket theramin playing
Caravan Ray doing 'Pictures of Natalie Portman (though I missed the Brokeback Mountain song) Also lovely lovely family you got there, mr R!
Elaine's a capella and general friendliness and enthusiasm putting this shy gay punk with a ukulele to shame, at least
Crabs on Banjos (correct name?) 'Hiroshama I Love you' stands out - did anyone get the name of the piano player who's doing a song a day? Was it Brian Speaker? i want to check his stuff out further. Also Ben for being top sound man and overseer. 'nice.'
Jim Tyrrell doing 'Red Zero' and the 'Half Empty / Half Full' duet with CR. Don't forget our Tyrrell Corporation SF agreement!
JB, just about everything, especially 'Black Hole' and ace inter-show banter. Also for co-hosting SF with Spud so that such a crazy-good idea could have ever been organised in the first place!
Bjam's lovely voice with its midatalantic twang belting out Tom Jones & Robbie Williams. You better get back songfightin' again - like i said, you should collaborate with Starfinger, get you both back in the game!
Glennny & Friends' 'Dead Presidents' - had the chorus of that stuck in my head all week!
Playing with
Roymond before and after what shall always be known as 'the ankle incident' was an honour. That man learnt DB basslines better than me in about 10 minutes flat, and I wrote the damn things! Also 'Diamonds' was soooo pretty.
Meeting
Ujnhunter was great - and apologies for having no time to speak to you before you had to dash for your train.
Brick Pig, were you the silver-haired gentleman who came up and said 'wish you'd played Pickle Juice'? if so, sorry for looking vaguely confused - I am not used to requests apart from 'shut up already'
Finally Bill & NIv, thanks again. Lo and behold you are both twice as amazing as i thought you'd be, and I thought you were both pretty amazing beforehand! You both dealt with me honking (either vocally or on keyboards) over our songs very well!
if I have forgotten anybody, it's only because I am stupid not because I didn't like everybody. I did.
