U2 and Glasvegas

iPhone photos: Daniel C.

Hi all,

One night after U2. The best show ever I believe; only waited 23 years for this one. Yes, perhaps better than Radiohead last year, and the three Bob Dylan shows I've seen. Glasvegas did a fantastic job as opening act, despite being incredibly nervous in front of their hometown crowd - as the band told me they would be when I had the chance to hang with/interview them a few weeks back.

Hi,

Back from a whirlwind trip around the country. 1,000 miles along roads large and small, single-track and motorway, winding and climbing, up and down. Rain, and more rain.; to the 4 corners of a great land. Here are a few frames. Adventure stories to follow.

Hope everyone is enjoying their August. U2 tomorrow. All the best from me to you.

Daniel

Skye's the limit

Hello there,

It's been a while again. My body is weak, tired and weary; Sick. I need some fresh air. Give me rolling hills and endless days and nights. I rented a car. It's fully loaded with snacks and supplies. I'm leaving my computer at home. I've packed my camera and will be driving towards the sunset tomorrow.

A beautiful girl has stolen my attention, she always does, and we're running away. Skye's the limit. Tiny highways, rolling hills, the West Highland Way, sandy beaches, islands, cliffs, ocean views, Harry Potter trains, climbing munros, wandering the fields and 1,001 pictures to be taken along the way. It's finally time to discover Scotland and its pristine beauty.

Ciao!

- Daniel C.

Nothing but time

Hiya,

Again, starting to fall behind on my posts, but I hope everyone was out enjoying their weekend, long weekend, and summer days and nights. I've not been feeling to hot as of late, and after a a crazy end to my time at the Herald, including four stories on my last afternoon, I decided it was time I took a little break from the Internet and my laptop.

I spent Saturday filming a segment for a Dutch travel show in the pouring rain, and crashed hard on Saturday evening after being out way too late on Friday at an art school rock n' roll house frat party, unreal by the way, and of course a nightmare few days at work. Saturday saw me watching one of the oldest teams in Scotland play with my CouchSurfer and Dennis, one of the most recognizable TV dudes from Holland, amongst a small crowd of 1,000, interviewing their #1 fan who has seen 513 matches in a row, and drinking beer and eating Scotch pies for the camera.
