Past tense: Tricky Woo

As requested, here are some early shots, dating from the film days ... if you were ever a regular connoisseur of the Birdman Sound website, you've seen them there. These pictures come from March 6, 2004, about six months after I first began taking photos of bands. In no particular order ...

Adrian Popovich goes down!



The ever-snazzily dressed Andy Dickson.



This was their neckerchief era.



Pat Sayers hits!



The view from over the PA. That's Eric Larock at right, rocking his then-new Precision bass (strange the details you remember after seven years).



The whole lot!



Adrian tips over.



I see a Setback in the front row.



Last I heard, Andy was rocking out with The Mongrels, Adrian Popovich was producing (he's handling Les Breastfeeders latest, due out March 8), Patrick Sayers is drumming for Winter Gloves, and I hear Eric has hooked up with a bunch of reprobate psychedelic rockers.

• Show reminder: Boxhands, Box of Monkeys (that's Toronto's Red Monkey having a lark) and Boxcar Cadavers rock The Rainbow.
