I thought about not posting this entry, for I am still kicking myself about the photos, but here it goes. Saturday I was given the chance to photograph a band that is so influential, that if they didn’t exist, I don’t think I would have half of the bands I listen to. That band is… Read More The Specials / Backyard Superheroes – The Stone Pony – Asbury Park, NJ – 7/20/13
Where do I begin? Last night I got to see one of the albums that shaped who I am played out live. First off a few years back the Rx Bandits took a hiatus with no idea when or if they would ever be back. This year though, they decided to celebrate the 10 year… Read More Rx Bandits – Electric Factory – Philadelphia, PA – 7/19/13
Yesterday I got the chance to go to Warped Tour in Scranton, Pennsylvania. This was my first time ever going to Warped Tour, and I didn’t even have to pay for I worked the Bridge 9 Records tent. I met some awesome people, hung out with familiar people, and saw some interesting people. Also I… Read More Vans Warped Tour 2013 Featuring The Early November / Driver Friendly – Toyota Pavilion At Montage Mountain – Scranton, PA – 7/16/13
I really should buy some property in Philadelphia. I am down there way too much. I know this because when I start watching It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, I know exactly where they are. Also I have never had a bad experience in Philadelphia. Bad situations have happened, everyday isn’t perfect, but in the end… Read More Driver Friendly – MilkBoy – Philadelphia, PA – 7/3/13
Life seems to go full circle. When I was in middle school going into high school, I thought I was this “punk rock” kid. I had the music down, the attitude, and the style. As I got older and got into girls, my style changed to the pop-punk music where all the songs were about… Read More Face To Face / Blacklist Royals – Trocadero Theatre – Philadelphia, PA – 6/8/13
If someone told me when I was younger that I would tour with Mxpx in my early 20’s I’d laugh at them. If someone then told me I would photograph some of my favorite bands in my mid twenties, I’d think they were drunk. Yet, I have done those things and more. Who knows what… Read More The Gaslight Anthem – The Stone Pony Summer Stage – Asbury Park, NJ – 5/26/13
My next show for the night was in Lancaster, PA with The Early November. It was about 9:00 and it takes about an hour and a half to get there from Philadelphia. I just finished photographing Good Old War and I was ready to take on 76. I got maybe 10 minutes into my drive… Read More The Early November – LAUNCH Music Conference & Festival At Lancaster County Convention Center – Lancaster, PA – 4/27/13
It’s been a while since I pushed myself to the limit. Last night dealt with me photographing two concerts in two different cities that are an hour and a half away. Sounds fine, but the first show started at 8:30 and the second show started at 10:15. Enough time to travel, but it wasn’t. My… Read More Good Old War – Electric Factory – Philadelphia, PA – 4/27/13
Do you ever think that the universe is trying to tell you something? I haven’t posted an entry in a while because I think the universe was doing just that. It all started last Friday. I told myself work from home and don’t risk going to work. I should’ve listened to myself, because that morning… Read More Greg Laraigne – Story Tellers, True Believers
With only three more days left, the Vans Warped Tour’s Acoustic Basement Tour finally made its way to The Barbary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. This tour has been getting rave reviews for its diverse lineup and unique setting where each musician would be playing only on an acoustic guitar. I was excited to see Vinnie Caruana… Read More Vinnie Caruana / Koji / Brian Marquis – The Barbary – Philadelphia, PA – 2/21/13
