Akmal 2.jpg, originally uploaded by gavin.warren.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of having Akmal in the studio for an interview… Hey, I love comedians almost as much as musicians…

At least I can crack the occasional funny – I really can’t play a note on any instrument.

Thanks Akmal, I am looking at the “Diametric View” theme more seriously now. g

It was my profound pleasure to cover the Glenn Hughes Melbourne show tonight… Thats right time travelers, Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Trapeze et al….

This man is the Voice of Rock and Roll and we witnessed a virtuoso performance in control and pitch.

Bravo Sir, I was honored to shoot the gig, and even more so to meet you later….

More photos at Flickr – just click the photo…

Hey there trendsetters…
Introducing Dayne Lawless – Drummer and all round good guy.

Dayne and I just finished a marathon photo shoot and I was so pleased that we had all that extra time – the massive Drum kit that Dayne plays is spectacular and available to see soon in the linked Flickr account…

But boy is it a massive thing to set up. Brilliant for the camera and a joy to light.

See more of Dayne’s Photos on his Facebook site soon.

Ciao g

Night 2 3.jpg, originally uploaded by gavin.warren.

Hey there fans,

I love this photo of the brilliant Suze DeMarci in action with Dave Leslie in the very foggy background.

Dead set, I wanted to murder the fog machine on the night but I have worked through it and am very happy with the results.

Its was great to meet the band backstage again and get a photo autographed.. Thanks Suze,

Hope all you fans will get out there and support these guys.. they rock and work hard at it!

Plenty of photos in the link under this photo… cheers g

Suze DeMarchi can rock it with the best of them ….. The Baby Animals are back and tonight they rocked the Prince of Wales like “back in the day”!

The new line up is
Suze DeMarchi on vocals and guitar,
Dave Leslie lead guitar,
Matt Cornell Bass,
Mick Skelton Drums.

Fantastic gig, they play again on the 8th and then The Shoppingtown Hotel on the 9th… catch them wherever you can.. its well worth it.

Check out their new releases, band info and other stuff on the ban’s website – http://www.thebabyanimals.com/

Thanks for the gig guys… welcome back to Melbourne and stay cool.
