Schadenfreude and Neal Pollack

Working backwards, the reason I couldn't go pick up my FFFF topic on Friday night was that I was at Schadenfreude's extravaganza of a show at the Athenaeum Theater. Schadenfreude wanted to document the show like crazy, so they had five camera people with six cameras shooting the show from all angles. I was on random-backstage-nightshot patrol, which was great because it was low-pressure and meant I could get a bunch of still pictures, too.

KW was one of the Balcony Bits Players, so we kept dashing past each other in the dark. She got to be a tiger and kill Roy in a sketch, whoo-ray.

Neal Pollack's band, the Neal Pollack Invasion, was the opening act of the show. Because I wasn't doing Schadenfreude-documenting yet, I got a ton of good shots of the band. I like taking concert photos and I have to say that the lighting in the Athenaeum was a jillion times better than in most rock venues. And, I'm a fan. So, yay.
