This past Wednesday, and my body is paying for it, I attended the Philadelphia date of Streetlight Manifesto’s The End of the Beginning Tour. This tour has been marketed as the last full tour Streetlight Manifesto will do in the foreseeable future. There is the possibility that they will play shows here and there, but… Read More Streetlight Manifesto – Theatre Of Living Arts – Philadelphia, PA – 10/2/13
The month of September has just started, and already I feel like it is going to be a nostalgic month. Last weekend I got to photograph Ace Enders and reunited Hidden in Plain View in Philadelphia, which brought back memories from my high school and early college years. This past Thursday, I went even further… Read More Blink 182 / Four Year Strong / New Beat Fund – Sands Event Center – Bethlehem, PA – 9/12/13
This is it, the end of summer. How do I know this? Growing up in Bethlehem, PA there is a weeklong festival that takes over the main street and the surrounding streets with food, drinks, out-of-towners, and music. I am speaking of Musikfest. A festival that surprisingly is the nation’s biggest free music festival. I… Read More Fright Barker & Sons – Musikfest – Bethlehem, PA – 8/10/13
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.

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
With only three more days left, the Vans Warped Tour’s Acoustic Basement Tour finally made its way to The Barbary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
