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!

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

Ladies and Gentlemen...

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...

I had the good fortune to shoot a friends band, The Indobox, last Friday night at the House of Blues in Boston. I haven't shot a show in years and it was great to get back to doing it, especially during a somewhat chaotic and strange night...

The last show I shot, again was years ago, so at the time I was still shooting film and doing my own processing. which was a main reason I stopped doing shows. The overhead cost of all the post work, was the main reason I stopped doing shows. But here we are in the digital age, and it was never more fun or easy than this time around. Getting back into the pit and being right up front, feeding off of the band's energy in front of you, and the crowds energy directly behind, that excitment is what I always loved about concert photography. For being a little rusty, I feel like I got some good images out of this, and it has only made me want to shoot more shows.

Check back in the next few days to see the main act images, The Disco Biscuits, from this same night!

cheers

It's been such a looong time...

Well I have been traveling all weekend, so I was unable to post. But here is an offering from the weekend to give you an idea of where I was. Music, and performances especially have always been a source of inspiration for me. This weekend was no different and I am ready to make some new work...so stay tuned for a new black and white project that I have already started, but all I have right now are undeveloped rolls of film!!!
