(Also on the bill: Willy Mason, The Duke &#038; The King.) It is probably the best picture I took all night, of anyone. It is certainly the best lit picture of Bondy that I have, because he seems to like to sing in the dark, or at least in extremely low light, and I don&#8217;t use a flash.  <\/p>\n<p>I had (slightly) better luck when I saw him again earlier this year at Union Hall, in Brooklyn. He still confined himself to four red stage lights, but I was closer to him, which made it easier to work with the low light. The shot below, a variation on the &#8220;tuning my guitar&#8221; pose, is my favorite from the evening. It is, again, a moment of stillness amid a flurry of activity. And there&#8217;s the totally incongruous picture of the colonial lady above his head, as if he&#8217;s in someone&#8217;s very fancy parlor, and not in a shoe-box-sized basement room in Brooklyn where there are dead animals nailed to the wall behind the bar and people playing bocce ball upstairs. (Yes, really, bocce ball. There&#8217;s also book-lined shelves and functioning fireplaces. Union Hall is a very interesting place.) <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rufusowliebat\/4338426526\/\" title=\"IMG_5621 by rufusowliebat, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2720\/4338426526_f4814b360e.jpg\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" alt=\"IMG_5621\" \/><\/a><\/center> <\/p>\n<p><b>For Alina, from Moscow:<\/b> Brendon Urie and Pete Wentz <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rufusowliebat\/3809783393\/\" title=\"IMG_2657.JPG copy by rufusowliebat, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2489\/3809783393_c9b51f25b9.jpg\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" alt=\"IMG_2657.JPG copy\" \/><\/a><\/center> <\/p>\n<p>I took this picture at Angels and Kings last August during Brendon Urie&#8217;s solo acoustic set. Pete Wentz was kind of but not really a surprise guest, in the sense that a) Fall Out Boy was on the Blink-182 tour with Panic! at the Disco, at the time and b) we were all crammed in his bar. When he appeared on the stage the first time &#8212; practically out of thin air &#8212; I was too startled to take any pictures. This shot is from the second time, when he came out to sing <i>Don&#8217;t Stop Believin&#8217;<\/i> with Brendon. All I had time to do was point the camera at their faces and hope for the best. <\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m particularly fond of this picture partially because that evening marks the start of my rock and roll photography adventure \u00e2\u20ac\u201c I had never bothered bringing my camera to shows before \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and partially because it&#8217;s a moment where they both look happy. <\/p>\n<p>The next one is just Brendon Urie by himself. You can&#8217;t tell from the expression on his face, but it was about 900 million degrees in that bar at that moment, and the audience was practically in his lap. I think he may have been trying not to laugh at whatever was going on in the front row. <\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/rufusowliebat\/3809778827\/\" title=\"IMG_2652 by rufusowliebat, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3456\/3809778827_6a1320a1d8.jpg\" width=\"375\" height=\"500\" alt=\"IMG_2652\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now here&#8217;s DJ Jen to take you into the all-request hour&#8230; Total Request (Not Quite Live) For April, from Ohio: A.A.
