2012 is well underway and dates are swirling. My first shows this year will be Lotus in Grand Rapids on 2/15 and Umphrey's McGee in Detroit on 2/18. Expect a few pictures and maybe a clip or two from each show.
I have been getting prepared for what is guaranteed to be a great year of music. On the punlive agenda thus far is:
Summercamp Music Festival
Dave Matthews Band @ Deer Creek (Noblesville, In) on 6/22 - 6/23
Electric Forest Festival
Dave Matthews Band @ DTE Energy 7/10
Allgood Music Festival
Hoxeyville Music Festival
Punlive.net will be adapting and adjusting it's focus this year. I will be releasing a lot less RAW content of any bigger shows. Expect most of the Ipod style video to be of local bar scene music and a lot less from the festival scene. My new intention is to capture quality footage with the use of a new DSLR. I want to start taking this footage and applying vigorous editing and ideas to hopefully come out with some really higher quality content this year.
I want to start connecting directly with artists to help incorporate our skills into what can really help benefit both Punlive.net and the artists. I don't want to just rogue shoot every show I see with hopes that it will be ok to release.
Moving forward from last year, covering festivals in a lot more detail will be a major focus. I want to really start filming crowd reactions and interact directly with fans. I want to be able to convey the love and energy that people have at these events. If I can bring even a shred of what I have experienced back home to share with others, then I am happy to be doing it.
I also want to get a grasp on all the talent in lower Michigan. There is a lot of good bands working very hard to make something of themselves out there. Expect quite a bit of new music to start hitting the youtube channel . I am connecting with organizers of shows and event's to start frequenting some local talent.
I am just itching to do more for my fans and to get some updates rolling. Make sure you are checking out our Facebook page and other social pages as well. I update those pages weekly, while only updating the blog periodically.
Thanks for all the support,
Pun
