VOLTAIRE!!!

[diello]

I finally have time to show you the voltaire pictures from Dracula's Ball!





They weren't going to do "BRAINS!" because they didn't have a trombone player, but there was a girl there who was dressed as a Kitty Trombone Player and was asked to do the solo. She rocked :)


Strike a pose!


Voltaire eats the mic


Deep

Deepest


I got to meet Gregor too! He was a little drunk when I found him and was being quite um, huggy.




And this is one cello player who knows his shit. He amazed me, and is a great conversationalist.




Shot of the two of them:



There was also a Rabbi there who performed the, uh.... that dance thingie you do when you hear awesome jewish music:

SHALOM!!



After the show, I found Voltaire and he autographed my Almost Human CD (the first one I ever heard), my Paint It Black (since that's the one I get the most use from) and my sketchbook crafted by me with directions from his book.

Look how amused he was by it :)





Oh he's so dashing :)

Voltaire totally rules :)
And it's totally rare to see him perform with his band.

Dude, how does he manage without his band? He performs with a CD? *gags*

Just him and his guitar, usually. He actually sounds equally divine without his band, but who can resist those strings?

Oh I know! That song "Gifts & Curses" by Yellowcard has a beautiful string part...like a string break-down. *heart*
