Back in February of 2007, a time that now seems so so far away…I took the opportunity to look at the world I remembered as a child through the eyes of an adult. I faced the relics of the past in the present. I learned that as I grew up thousands miles away, Moscow grew [...]
PRE-SHOW
So I’m going to shoot Cracker tonight at Rev Hall. You coming???
I listened to them a lot in high school. Back in K-town when the only station that would come in my room was WDST (not unusual since I lived on top of a mountain). I checked these guys out back then, because Brad Pitt [...]
Valentine’s day, 2009 and the first 40 days (If you know me, you know what that means to me). This was the most perfect way to remember and celebrate love, life and music. Jason put on a fantastic private show for FLY 92.3. He was kind, funny and thoughtful. It was lucky that he came [...]
I’m not going to lie…this was the most anticipated show of the year and my photo career to date. I worked on getting clearance for this for 3 months. Yet, it was John Brodeur of Metroland who made it happen for me. I even ended up getting paid to be there! As a kid in [...]
It’s not often that I surf on YouTube. The couple of times I have…I’ve discovered bands that are now my favorites. Metric is one of them. Just as randomly, and on the way back from the GD shoot (above) I was meeting my boyfriend at Savannah’s before walking home. I sat at the bar and [...]
Some bands sound great on CD, others sound great live. Some sound best in a room full of sweaty fans who live and breathe the music. If you weren’t a fan of Company of Thieves before Larkfest, you became one after. If you haven’t heard of them till they came to Rev Hall well you [...]
They’ve worked so hard and for so long. Now, they’re selling out arenas all over the world, not just small clubs that’ll take them. I loved American Idiot and this album is pretty good too. I like my music loud and charged with energy, not necessarily political. There was a very entertaining pink bunny onstage [...]
She has a point, always. It was hot and sweaty in the club and sticky with excitement. I’ve heard so much about these guys and this was the very first time I was in their presence. I had arranged clearance very last minute with the band’s publicist. By the time I got to the pit [...]
Aaron and the guys were in good spirits as they came on stage for their headlining set. This was their annual stop in our area and my reunion with a band that started it all for me back in 2004. They were my first arena show, backstage experience (get out of the gutter NOW) and [...]
Despite the rain, Lil Wayne came out blazing (pun intended). We shot from the sound booth and that was okay because it put the grandeur of the show in perspective. Backlit by humongous LED screens Lil Wayne put on a huge performance in a little hat (I know, I couldn’t resist).
After the reschedule, for which Chris Martin apologized profusely I was finally at SPAC shooting Coldplay. The place was packed. The rules were strict.
While my fandom ended with the purchase of A Rush of Blood to the Head , I was still super giddy with excitement of shooting a world renowned group of musicians and [...]
This summer Nickelback surprised me and put out a song I reluctantly started to like. I even dubbed it the sexy summer song (actual title is Something in your mouth). So, when it was announced that they’d be coming to SPAC, I promptly emailed my contact and offered up free [...]
