Awesome! You should check out my site and post a review of this concert. People post reviews of their own perspective of a show and I'm sure this would be a great one!

this mystic diddy rules. Didn't he get pissed at his fans on this tour for requesting old Smashing Pumpkins songs?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

KoontzPhotography In reply to deerdancer [2008-12-18 01:43:16 +0000 UTC]

Not that I know of, but as of his last interview he stated that they are no longer going to play a lot of old hits at future concerts

you don't give yourself enough credit for how talented you are - this is easily a fantastic album cover

really? Thanks. I guess I'm always my worst critic. If you see some of the stuff I'm up against though... wow.... I have a slim chance

avoid-cliche [2008-10-15 21:04:07 +0000 UTC]

that's really awesome and catches the spirit of the band now: dreamy atmosphere with heavy social/political critique. You did in such a beautiful, colorful way. It's almost ironic, really beautiful.

KoontzPhotography In reply to avoid-cliche [2008-10-16 00:42:21 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! I'm glad you caught the fact that this was my "now" poster. My first entry was a compilation of the last 20 years

This is really, really cool. I suck at watercolors, and I usually don't like how they look, but this is simply fantastic.

KoontzPhotography In reply to uOnlyGetOneLastShot [2008-10-15 16:06:25 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. I'm completely self taught in watercolors... and I think I use them more like acrylics than watercolors! haha

This is very cool I love the blended colours in the background, it's a very natural flow I am rubbish with watercolour but from what I can tell you did a good job, there's no "bleeding" anywhere!

Oh that's fine. I just figure if anybody that knows watercolors stops by... or even band poster art.... maybe they'd give me some tips
