Happy Birthday, 9:30 Club!
January 9, 2016
I was able to go to the first night of 9:30 Club’s World’s Fair. The club turned 35 last year and its current location is celebrating its 20th anniversary. To celebrate, 9:30 Club turned into a mini museum of its history and where you could get a free (real!) 9:30 Club logo tattoo. The club now has a Hall of Records. They also released a book. (Despite my name being misspelled in the book, it’s still cool to see my photos in it. Tear sheets from it are coming soon.)
The 9:30 Club forever holds special to me, not only because of the performances I’ve seen there but also the memories I have. Possibly the best memory at the club was the Youth Lagoon show in September 2013, where I met Nicholas Karlin. (I’m sappy. I know.)
My full photo set of the World’s Fair is on Brightest Young Things.
