Atlanta - another concert, another awesome trip

SOUNDTRACK HERE

i went to Atlanta this weekend to see Panzer AG, Psyclon Nine and Helltrash.
it was a kickass show and good trip, although i was followed by a security guard from the Suntrust tower for 3 or 4 blocks after being told
no photography was allowed on the property.
then i noticed from my reflection in a window that i looked pretty shady...unshaven, wearing sunglasses on a cloudy morning to fight
a hangover, chav cap...

later on a bum asked if i was a cop...i said no, then the shithead started yelling at me, saying i just can't go around taking people's pictures because
it's "illegal and shit"
(and for once, i wasn't even taking pictures of people, because the lighting was crap for it on that block.)
the other bums just gave that bum a STFU look.
the biggest problem with Atlanta? it's full of Georgian assholes. anyway, on with the pics.

Don't let Andrea hear you say that about her precious 615 Peachtree -- she'll rip your head off!

Thanks for posting the great photos.

Some great pics of Atlanta there and the concert looks likes fun. And that's cool you'll be able to fly from Atlanta to Prague nonstop on Delta (pic 4).

Love that first pano, these pictures must've been taken Saturday. I noticed that large crane disassembling the 45 Allen Plaza tower crane and that was Saturday. By the way 45 Allen Plaza looks unbelievable in the first pic. Great job LSyd.

yeah, it's better to not irritate her, but oh well. not that i had anything against 615, i kind of like it's clean lines, but that view looks better w/it gone.

Downtown Atlanta has more character than a lot of people are willing to give it credit for. Atlanta also has one of the top collections of modern skyscrapers in the country IMO.

yeah, downtown's great...midtown used to be cool (before the clubs were closed for condo towers.) hopefully downtown'll keep getting better...i need to go check out the underground clubs some night to see how that's working. Farlie-Poplar would be awesome if it managed to stay alive during evenings.
