Wu-TANG! (2012:5/365)

Last Thursday night, the Wu-Tang Clan blasted through the Intersection in a blaze ( ha ha get it? ). I had shot a show in the past that was Method Man and Redman (another great show) but the last time the Wu-Tang bus pulled up, I was sadly absent. This was definitely a show to [...]

The Bronk Brothers made their debut at the Whiskey River Saloon in Grandville on the 11th/12th of February and I was on hand for the Saturday show. I walked in the door around 9:45 and was blown away by the amount of people hanging out in the bar. There were no open tables and only [...]

365 Photo : 44 – We Came As Romans

To round out the week of February 7-11, my FIFTH show of the week was We Came As Romans. It was definitely a blur of a week but lots of great fun with good friends. Ended the week with some music that’s harder than I normally listen to but was still entertained by the end [...]

365 Photo : 43 – Meet Darren

Darren is currently the bass player for Josh Thompson who swung through the Intersection a few weeks ago for another awesome show. I quickly noticed that I recognized the bass player from a few other bands. Met up with Darren after the show and talked about the 3 or 4 different bands that I have [...]

Less Than Jake rolled through town a few weeks ago and Amanda/Lora and I were on hand to check out the show. I have heard of them before but honestly don’t think I actually knew any of their music. They put on a pretty good show considering I can’t normally get into a show of [...]

365 Photo : 38 – Dancin’ at the Crazy Horse

While I have apparently done well at figuring out the close ups with my remote lights, you can see that the wide shot is still not quite right. I tried a bunch of times this night and this was the best thing that I could come up with. More to come on this front…

This is another photo from my experimentation with a few remote lights at smaller bar shows. This helps give the photos some depth along with adding some light since most of the bars can be quite dark. I think this is definitely probably one of the best drummer photos that I have ever taken at [...]

365 Photo : 29 – Brian’s New Album

Last Saturday, I spent the afternoon with Brian Lorente and some friends at the River City Studios. Brian and Kurt laid down a new acoustic version of “Stay With Me Tonight” which has been a favorite of mine for some time now. It was really cool to see how all the pieces of a recorded [...]

365 Photo : 28 – Union Guns takes over Crazy Horse!

Last weekend, the boys (and girl now) of Union Guns returned back to the Crazy Horse for the weekend. The ‘Horse is basically their home bar so it was quite the coming home party along with a welcome party for Lyndsey McFarlane as their new female vocalist. Good times had by all. Especially Jake/Frank as [...]

365 Photo : 27 – The Crane Wives

Last Thursday, Nikki and I went to hang out with some of *her* band friends since the last few weekends have been all *my* band friends. We started at Founders for The Crane Wives. They put on an AMAZING show in front of an absolutely packed house. I definitely want to check out this band [...]
