The teacher and her students

Top photo shows Lisa. She had a busy schedule at the Flakrock festival last Saturday. She's the new bass player in the metal band Elemental 6. They were the last band to take to the stage, which was long after I had left so I don't have any photos from their gig. I sat down with Lisa for a few minutes and she told me that she's also performing in a trio called Trösten together with her brother Albin, and a guy called Kenneth Burman. After our talk I took a few portraits, but a little later I spotted Lisa talking to a few friends and decided to take a candid portrait.Lisa works as a music teacher in Brandbergen and she is the proud teacher of the kids in the band And his name was Kangaroo that you can see on the second photo. It was the teenagers second ever gig and Lisa thought they were amazing. If you live locally you can see them later this summer during the Haninge Day celebrations at Lake Rudan.

Expedition Wanay

After five weeks of sunshine and record breaking temperatures it was time for the 2010 Flakrock festival in Tungelsta. As the first band took to the stage on Friday afternoon it started to rain, and it never stopped. Nine very different bands played during the day and evening. One of the early acts was the guys in Expedition Wanay. They play Southern Rock so it's very fitting that they arrived to the festival in a Chevy Impala,a car that belongs to the guitarist Danne Bonden Jansson. I saw the car approaching and walked over to get a cool photo. One hour later the band climbed up onto the stage and started rocking.

Midday Entertainment

There was some entertainment at the official unveiling of Haninge's new Bookmobile at Poseidon's Square on Thursday. After a speech by local politician Michael Fridebäck (M), the Taxi Stand Steel Band lined up in front of the Cultural Centre and started playing, and they were great. As the Bookmobile is a library mostly for pre school kids, the clown and mime artist Bo W Lindström from Pantomimteatern put on a show for the younger people in the audience. There was some drama as the wind suddenly picked up during his performance and the set blew away, but as the seasoned pro he is he improvised and continued like nothing had happened. There was a lot of photographers around and as I always do I tried taking photos of all of them. As I was talking to the artist Kristoffer Zetterstrand, a woman came up to us. She turned out to be a journalist student and I figured she would be up for a portrait, but she quickly explained that she was more comfortable behind the camera.
