these guys aren’t in Black Flag anymore

2 years ago, when I pawed through my Black Flag shoot from the Observatory, I wasn’t very happy with the results. I pawed through them again today and found a couple that I like … It’s always good to get away from your photos after you take them … Then come back and look at…

I’ve been waiting 30 years to shoot this band.

Those who know me, know that Stiff Little Fingers have been my favorite band FOREVER. I’d say, since 1980. Last week I finally got to bring my camera to one of their shows. While this is not my best work, I have an excuse, it’s hard to shoot while bouncing up and down and singing…

WOT?!?!?! I got the cover? Well, part of it anyway

I would pay you a dollar to play dollar.

Rocket From The Crypt played a 2 night stand at Alex’s Bar on January 30 and 31, 2015. They were great, playing different sets each night, and spanning their massive catalog. I’m sure everyone there left satisfied, hot, sweaty and tired … I also assume everyone there left bummed that they didn’t get the hear…
