SIRSY at REVOLUTION HALL-Tonight
I’m heading out to shoot Revolution Hall’s last show-Sirsy. It’s going to be bittersweet. Even my cat is a fan! But I’m not going anywhere until I can find my SHOES…

GENUINE HALESTORM at Northern Lights on 4.25.10
I’ve been shooting bands for 6 years now. All that time has been an honor because it allowed me (and the fans) to be present in the moments in time of others. Having my camera (we’re pretty inseparable wherever I can bring it) with me has been a huge bonus, because I get to capture [...]
DASHBOARD CONFESSIONAL at Northern Lights on 4.11.10
He came to see us and we went to see him. All on his birthday. Chris played Don’t Wait. And I was happy, because I was done waiting :)

SNOOP DOGG & ETERNIA at Northern Lights tonight!
Tonight I unexpectedly discovered my one and only favorite female rapper (Ok, maybe MIA is pretty good too) ETERNIA. Awesome, spunky and powerful on a stage full of guys. It’s inspiring to see a female out there kicking ass. Once that set was done the crowd started changing for Snoop. Funny thing though, Snoop had [...]
ALKALINE TRIO at Northern Lights on 3.8.10: NOT A WASTE OF TIME!
Alkaline Trio never fails to impress nor is listening to them ever a waste of time! While Time to Waste (from Crimson) was not on the night’s set list-it’s still one of my favorite songs to run to. That’s a random fact and I’m not going to dive into the vault of my music knowledge [...]
ANTI-FLAG at Northern Lights on 2.1.10
These guys always put on a crazy show. This one was hot, packed and full of energy. Classic crowd surfers kicked everyone as they swam toward and tried to stay on the stage. The guys smiled and laughed until it got creepy and security had to pull the fans off the stage…momentarily. Just like the [...]
DAN BLACK at The Bayou on 4.3.10
All the way from the UK! Dan Black was at The Bayou this Saturday. Quirky, electro pop is my definition of the set. He was nice and fun. I recommend if you want to dance the night away!

I WON! I REALLY ACTUALLY WON!
Amateur, shamateur I still won! I’ve never actually won anything before except for a Fall Out Boy promotion at one of the tours a few years back. This one is one I was very excited about. I must’ve checked the PDN and Billboard sites a couple times a day, since January, for 2 months to [...]
THE DEVIN TOWNSEND PROJECT, 1.29.10
“In a world of increasing conformity and musical banality, Devin Townsend is among the few real personalities who have character, charisma and surprising innovative creativity.” -Biography, www.hevydevy.com
He was fun, energetic and wore one hell of a fancy pinstripe suit. For a moment, before he started playing, I wondered what a guy in a the suit [...]
#1 SHOW OF 2009: JASON MRAZ at Plastic
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 [...]
#2 SHOW OF 2009: METALLICA at Times Union Center
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 [...]
#3 SHOW OF 2009: METRIC at Savannah’s
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 [...]
#4 SHOW OF 2009: COMPANY OF THIEVES
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 [...]
#5 SHOW OF 2009: GREEN DAY at Times Union Center
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 [...]
#6 SHOW OF 2009: YEAH, YEAH, YEAHS at Northern Lights
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 [...]
#7 SHOW OF 2009: STAIND at SPAC
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 [...]
