I made my first video slideshow and wanted to share it with you. The musician (Elizabeth Ann Middleton) is one I found through MySpace, and she generously let me use her music to set to my images. Visit her MySpace page here - http://www.myspace.com/pianorama - she's fantastic! :-)

OH YEAH! Two-Three years ago I pulled every TFP gig I could, I started with a camera, one studio light and a background stand made out of PVC. Finally picked up a real background stand, then another light, then softboxes, more lenses and I was damn I need to start charging people this is getting expensive. So I started charging like $50 a shoot then I got tied in with a couple starter Magazines and new agencies and nothing ever panned out! So I just got more selective on my work. Honestly I've not done a big shoot yet this year, couple band promo's and some live stuff. Didn't even do the runway this year because they never take and USE the lighting suggestions we give.
Yes, times are hard-- Unemployment in Indiana tops ten percent. Young people are struggling to stay in college because graduating is terrifying... Been there before, in the middle of another painful recession in the 80's-- The answer was reggae music-- I brought reggae bands to stages from PA to Iowa, and points in between. Those years were spent in the groove, poor but irie! Now, we need music more than ever before-- Even with hope on the horizon, it's going to be a long haul this time. Mumbai Taxi is trying to ease the pain-- Yes, there will be weekends when a cover at a club, and the price of drinks, will be a bit dear... Our solution: HOUSE PARTIES!!! We need to play, and you need trips, Taxi trips-- A cosmic convergence of positive iration! Let's declare a new SUMMER OF LOVE-- Of Mumbai Taxi psychedelic Mambo, Tropicalia, Soukous, Soweto Beat & Rockin' Raga Reggae in living rooms, back yards, deep woods, concert halls, gardens, festivals-- Wherever there is a need to tune in, turn on, and take a (Mumbai) Taxi trip! Contact us soon-- The calendar is filling up.

Thank you very much! Yeah it is a really neat old church. One of the neigbors told me they have Sunday service there once a year. I think it is one day in September. I'd like to go & see if I can get a few pictures of the inside. Other then through the window.
