Music: The World/Inferno Friendship Society @ The Earl

Yesterday could have been a disaster if I hadn’t found out about my favorite band playing in town when I did.  Somehow they keep coming through the area and I never hear about it until the day of.  This is the second time it’s happened and I was quite happy I was able to make [...]

Entertainment: Georgia Hall of Fame Inductions

On Saturday the AJC sent me over to the 32nd Annual Georgia Music Hall of Fame Awards at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre.  I presumed access wouldn’t be great, so I lugged my 400mm f/2.8 with me and I’m really glad I did.  All the photographers got sat in the back row of the [...]

Music: Janelle Monáe

Last month while I was shooting for the AJC, one of my assignments was to shoot a concert for Janelle Monae at Smith’s Olde Bar.  I’d never heard of Janelle before, but when I got there I ran into Rachel Bailey from the UGA Photojournalism program and more recently Paste Magazine.  This was a good [...]

Fox Trotsky and From the Bassment

Back in high school I became friends, through my friend Scott, with the members of a band named Who Am I?  They broke up and some of the members went on to form Fox Trotsky (Conor Quinn, Mason Turner and Gus Fernandez).  They are still around today, kind of, since they announced that this would [...]

Phoenix @ Criminal Records

Brett once again informed me of a free show over at Criminal Records today.  The band, Phoenix, was doing an in-store acoustic set before their show at Variety Playhouse later in the day.  Anyways, I took photos and go figure, here they are. French people do the darndest things.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart

Brett asked me if I wanted to go see a free in-store show today down at Criminal Records in Little 5 Points.  Needing a break from editing photos, I went with and brought my camera. I don’t really remember what the band sounded like because I tend to zone out when I’m shooting, but I [...]

Show @ ICANFLYII

Yesterday I saw a note from my friend Conor letting me know there was gonna be a show at ICANFLYII down near East Atlanta.  I’d never been there before and also wanted to see Conor’s band, Fox Trotsky, which I hadn’t seen in about 5 years so I decided to head down after getting Lyndsey [...]

Harps for Peace

I was hanging out with my friend Trishna today who has been in Korea for the last year.  We made our way down to Decatur and while we were walking around we saw a bunch of people loading up harps into the gazebo.  A bit curious as to what was going on, we decided to [...]

WRFG: Adam Shapiro

This is Adam Shapiro.  He plays guitar and sings, but he is blind.  He played yesterday at WRFG’s block party (see yesterday’s photo’s here). He did some folk songs and then a Johnny Cash song which I wish I had recorded, but this was the one he played right after.  Keep reading to see more [...]

AthFest: Madeline Adams

This is the final post of mine from AthFest 2009 (click here to see more photos from AthFest).  I was fortunate enough to catch Madeline Adams once again (click here for more photos of Madeline).  This lady rocks and its always a pleasure to see her. When you first walk into the venue part of [...]
