Robots Are Forever

Rob­bie the Robot has a con­sid­er­able film career that spans fifty years. He has been star­ring in film since just after being born (in 1955) all the way up until appear­ing in Pamela Ander­son­’s tele­vi­sion show last year and an AT&T com­mer­cial this year.

Stephen Simmons Show

The Coal Men were sup­posed to be play­ing in Ash­land tomor­row night (the fourth), but as things hap­pened, that show fell through. How­ev­er, Tues­day before last, Dave called me up to let me know he’d be in town with Stephen Sim­mons to play a show on the 27th.

Railroad Trestle Connection

Rail­road Tres­tle Con­nec­tion by Jason Cole­man — Oth­er than the fact that this is a very cool look­ing, old riv­et­ed steel con­nec­tion, I was attempt­ing to use some col­or & light­ing effects in post-pro­cess­ing to make this pho­to interesting.
