Subtitle: We attended a concert at The
Grey Eagle, in Asheville, Sunday night, March 2, 2014. It
featured Steve Rothery of Marillion, playing his new Vo-96 Acoustic
Synthesizer guitar, along with Billy Cardine, and Paul Vo, inventor
of the guitar.
I took a bunch of pictures during the concert (no flash, and I asked
the videographer first if it'd be OK). I haven't taken pictures in
dark settings like this before. I used ISO 3200, and had my 18-85mm
zoom lens, which isn't the best, but I was hiking around Asheville
and decided I'd only take one lens with me that day, so that's what
I had to work with. I've made some adjustements to the images
(brightness contrast and such) but mostly these are a function of
the camera.

005-DSC_6467: While we were having dinner in the next room (excellent
carne asad tacos and carnitas nachos at the
Taqueria Con Cuida;
seriously, this was some of the best nachos I've had), Amber pointed out
how the guitar was catching light in the next room. It reminds me of the way
the guitar beacons to Wayne in Wayne's World.
