Greetings!
I am alive! Sorry I haven’t posted anything in a while… I’ve been hopping from city to city like the little busy bee that I am. Now that I have a bit of time and some free WiFi thanks to the Vancouver airport… I figured I’d repost a little memory from the last time I was out in British Columbia (both Vancouver and Victoria):

Makes me really miss my Canadian tour mates (Finger Eleven). And now… time to get ready to board. Can’t wait to come back home and pass out in my bed…

Here’s a new fun little video from the road from my buddy Dj (currently guitarist for Guns ‘N’ Roses):

As a concert photographer myself, I will say that I always love it when artists have a great colorful production for their sets. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy shooting live music regardless, but I’m not going to lie, I prefer having bright, rich colors in my results more than anything else.
Anyway.
Here are some photos from Kanye’s Glow in the Dark tour book that leave me speechless:

So in May, the weekend after I got back from my vacation in Hawaii, I had a day and a half in L.A. before I immediately hopped onto the “Gun Slingers Tour” for the weekend with my boys in Rikets and Butcher Jones.
The first night was in Fullerton, CA at Slide Bar. HollywoodMusic.TV came out…
Here is their video of Rikets from that night:

How sad…

So part of 2007, I spent on the road in a van full of stinky boys. This is what happens when you have a long drive ahead of you before the next city and show… and all of you are bored out of your minds:

This was back in 2007 when I was on the road with Strata and Finger Eleven. We found a mechanical bull in Buffalo…

So my boys in RIKETS played The Pearl Room in Chicago last night.
Provo posted a video of the backstage area last night that I completely forgot about (I was there when I was out on the road with Powerman 5000 a few years ago)!

…and now I miss it.

A little somethin’ from my boys in RIKETS, who just went back on the road with Butcher Jones to continue the rest of “The Gunslingers Tour 2009!”
