I saw the Nightporters at The Earl Saturday night. They played a smashing show.

Several characters in the crowd provided additional entertainment throughout the concert. A cocaine fueled guy who danced like a demented Napolean Dynamite was fucking hilarious. I have no idea how this dumbass managed to remain upright. Several straight white people also attempted to dance. I thought the uncoordinated choad next to me would go through the floor, he was hitting it so hard.

Eventually the lead singer announced the group was out of tunes and was going to fuck around. After a cover I did not recognize, the band brought a woman from the audience on stage and played a slamming cover of Angel of Harlem with a nice little jam at the end. Next, some drunk dude who obviously knew the band members from the days of way back attempted to sing lead on a cover of Gloria. As he could barely remain standing, this was some funny shit. I was waiting for him, the mic stand, and an unlucky band member to go crashing off stage and into the monitors. Somehow, he remained upright and there were no collisions.

While at the performance, I snapped a few shots for Aspherical. Enjoy this photograph of a woman shooting video, and this shot of a woman taking stills.
