Category: photos
So as it turns out I do like slideshows but it wasn't really working for pride so I decided to post some of the Parade pictures here and am now just getting around to it.....

Granted these aren't all the pictures and it was kinda random and that cool old looking car was before the Parade and the blue one was after the parade.... Now Not sure when the garden walk is but now I think that would be a perfect way to use a slide show or two.....

I like the picture format better than the slide show.
metalpeter - 06/15/11 16:55
glad you liked them as well
flacidness - 06/15/11 01:45
Awesome pics babe. I wish I could have been there. I really liked the made up buffalo head. In new orleans talk "that bitch was stamped!!"
metalpeter - 06/14/11 18:33
glad you liked them...
libertad - 06/14/11 18:29
Very nice pictures, (e:metalpeter). I really enjoyed looking through them.

Mia 2010 Pole Dancing
Category: slideshow
So Music Is Art last year was great.... At the time things where kinda crazy so I don't think I could ever really figure out what to do picture wise so I figured why not try some slide shows this should be some dancers and a pole the duration is the standard 5 seconds....

The Dirty Commies
Category: music
So Sunday at The Allenwest Art Festival or what ever the official name is ...Yes they used to sell the shirts with the festival name on it... I saw this band called The Dirty Commies and I liked the music so got a CD.... Now not sure if you would call this mountain Music...Hillbilly Rock....Rock A Billy..... Not really sure maybe Skiffle I admit the video is kinda low but maybe someone will enjoy it.....





Now some Videos not shot by me......



Shaky I admit




Well that should be plenty .....
metalpeter - 06/14/11 18:58
The Dogs laying there was pretty cool like what do ya do if they decide they want to go walk somewhere.... I'm sure they have them taken care of so they are happy to lay there.... In terms of the video I took it with my camera... I think how ever it is set up it picks up the noise that is close. I did this at a bandits game once and the intro of the guy on the bagpipes was kinda muffled by the fans.... If you do like their music it is on Youtube I just didn't want to go over board and watch everything and post everything.....
libertad - 06/14/11 18:47
A shame it is hard to hear on your videos. I enjoyed these more than the other ones you posted though. I love how the dogs just lie at their feet like that.

Day 2 Allentown West and Allentown

Now my plan at this point was to go to rite aid and get video tapes but I thought check walgreen's first it was nice to run into the (e:peeps) there.... I saw this vehicle 1st though I was just going to go home after if they didn't have the tapes but when I got to richmond I had to go check out the painting of the car there... I ran into some guy who told me some crazy stories about someone getting the brains blown out at muligans when he was a kid and all sorts of stuff based the fact that seeing this car was a magical moment stuff I guess was crazy back then.....

As Much as I like the slide show Idea and will use it some still.. For something that tells a story or kinda tells a story the pictures are better....

Not sure if this will work the video is kinda quiet but here is a link to it...Hoping to get both on Youtube on monday we shall see....

Day 1 Allentown Art Fest
Category: photos
I had a good time today and decided to go with small art instead of a big piece that I might not have room for or it might have fit in one spot wasn't sure but here are the photos....

Yes that is the art I got on my wall.... Not sure if you can see the other Asia pictures by the same artist in the kitchen...

I'm hoping also to post a short version of pictures from Pride soon but we shall see.....

It was nice to run into (e:libertad) and mike...

Loved that big bike

The Dolls those kids made where great I didn't read about them but I thought they where pretty cool...

I saw some new stuff that wasn't there last year....

I know I had some other point that I forget.....
metalpeter - 06/12/11 09:35
See (e:tinypliny) that is a good point..... I have heard that they last year got into it with some people going to the festival and got moved I have seen them before on North and Elmwood... Pride I wasn't around that area so I can't speak on the protesters .... Again though I don't think they are really protesting The Art or the people looking at the art maybe there is some art they don't like... I think they are just there to get their message out because they know a lot of people will be there.. But not sure really.....
tinypliny - 06/11/11 22:49
If they protest everything, I wonder how they live their own lives... people in glass houses, perhaps?
metalpeter - 06/11/11 22:43
1. In terms of food I didn't eat to much wish I was brave enough to try gator meat

2. Allentown Dress shop is famous for doing that... Didn't see them do it last year but it is back.... maybe I should have stood there and took video it is much better in person....

3. To be honest I don't think they are Protesters anymore.... I think they just show up to things where there are a lot of people to try and get the word out..... But I could be wrong about that......
paul - 06/11/11 22:31
Nice pictures. For me the art festival always becomes a food fest. Even more so the elmwood one as they have those delicious fried artichokes.

Its so crazy that the Christian protesters have started to protest everything. At first it was abortion and the pride parades but then they moved on to Thursday in the square, the Greek and Italian fests and now the art festival. I have a good confrontation plan involving a rape whistle close to the one with the loud speaker
tinypliny - 06/11/11 21:17
LOL @ multiple photos of the Allentown dress mannequins. Looks like you snapped them every time you walked by.
metalpeter - 06/11/11 20:44
Well I didn't get any pictures of the art besides the stuff I bought so to see that you would have to go to both that and Allentown West.... There was stuff on Allen at both places that I thought was really cool but that I didn't buy because I don't have a spot for it to rest on.... One was this like goat with critters on it and the other thing was bottle art.......
tinypliny - 06/11/11 20:32
That totally rocked. I didn't go and was hoping you would post a picture summary. Now it's almost like I went and saw it all. :) Very nice. Thanks so much!
