Ladies and gentlemen...

I was recently lucky enough to shoot some good friends of mine, The Indobox, at the Middle East in Cambridge , MA. They kicked off the night for Brothers Past and did not disappoint, providing high energy, rock and roll, and maybe a dance beat or two. The Indobox is currently starting a spring tour across the country, so if you like fun, and some dancing, check out their tour schedule to see if they are coming to your town. Thanks guys!

Kinda feels like this outside today...cold and dreary. Happy weekend to everyone!

And just because, here is a well lit pile of trash I saw the other day while strolling around South Boston. Kind of ironic

One for Sunday...

Winter in New England, never a bad beach day!

Birds of a Feather

We took a stroll around South Boston yesterday, these are some birds that I saw. Obviously I took their picture, and I don't feel bad about it. Enjoy your weekend!

Walk About

Well I took a walk yesterday, temperatures are beginning to climb a bit and it felt good to head downtown and get some fresh air. It turned out to be colder that I wanted it to be as well as being slightly short on time, But I was able to still make a few images that I liked and at the very least, I got to watch the sun set over the Charles River. Get out there and enjoy the upward climbing temps and don't throw all your icy snowbanks into the streets...

enjoy!

The Phish

Every now and then you get lucky...A photo pass for Phish dropped into my lap last week for their fall tour closing show in New Hampshire. Since shooting for the first time, I have always wanted to get the opportunity to shoot this band, and after close to 8 years of waiting, it happened. I've always admired the work of Danny Clinch, Jay Blakesberg, Herb Greene, and Jim Marshall, and shooting one Phish show obviously doesn't put me in the ring with them, but getting to goals in your life sure does feel good. A big thanks to Justin Ward over at www.livemusicblog.com for coming through with the pass, and head over to see a larger selection of pictures from this show.

cheers

Custom Guitar

I was recently asked if I could photograph a friend of mines new custom guitar. Nothing special just come down and make some pictures before the show. Well this is what came of it. The guitar is beautiful and the tone of the wood is even more striking in person. The guitar was built by Sean Loughney who works out of Dunore, Pennsyvania. He was kind enough to put a few of my images up on hiw website, so stop by yo have a look.


I will be posting images from Joe and the Indobox's show at The Paradise in Boston very soon!

Rainy Monday

summer...

In remembrance of the last day of summer. Welcome fall...

Disco Biscuits 9.11.10 Bank of America Pav., Boston, MA

The Disco Biscuits came back to town this past weekend, and after their shortened stay last March, they had some ground to cover. With an epic light rig, it was like throwing darts at a bulls-eye the size of a mattress trying to get good shots. I put this little number together as I thought it had a nice feeling, a small mini story inside of the evening. It's also pretty rare to get 3 shots in focus and of the same exposure when dealing with live shows as is always the case, when your just ready to make two and three, lights change, someone gets in your way, a lame security guard tells you to scram...

Anyway...I may post more from this evening, or I may just throw them all up over at my flicker account which you can check them out there. Or head over to www.livemusicblog.com for the full gallery. I look forward to shooting some more shows in the near future, with the possibility of some BIG names! Stay tuned...

One for Sunday...

It's a perfect fern, and every year it grows like this...nice

Castle Island

We stopped by Castle Island this past sunday for a walk about. Got asked some stupid questions, saw some sea creatures, and generally had a good time. What day isn't great that ends with soft serve ice cream, though if you go, don't expect sprinkles.

and the light is growing brighter now...

I was in Pennsylvania this past weekend, and apparently all I looked at was sunlight! We were treated to beautiful weather the whole time which made for some great sunsets as well as beautiful morning light, and luckily I was up for both.

Please do enjoy...
