Manchester April 2006

A group of drummers try their darnedest to emulate Salvador’s Olodum in the middle of Manchester’s shopping district. They didn’t quite make, but I’ll give them points for trying.

Those of you who check in regularly on my Flickr page know that I’ve been in Manchester since Saturday. We’re here to shoot some commercials with Brian Lara, Dwight Yorke and Russell Latapy, and in case you’re wondering why we had to come here to do them, it’s because Dwight is currently training with Manchester United in preparation for captaining Trinidad & Tobago at the World Cup in June.

Manchester could be warmer (they’re predicting a low today of -2°C) and drier (we even had a short hailstorm yesterday), but it’s not like we thought we were coming here to work on our tans. We’re shooting all day tomorrow, thankfully most of it indoors. In the meantime we’ll be making an effort to see a bit of this city and I myself will be trying to get the lyrics of that song from “Hair” out of my head.
