Winter X Games 15

Testing

I was recently asked to be a guest speaker for a History of Rock class at a local high school.  While I waited for my introduction, I spotted this paper--this test--waiting patiently to be graded. I liked it, so I'm sharing . . .

Who says you need a face to have a good photo?

It's all about the shoes . . .

Sometimes when musicians are performing, I get wrapped up in their footwork.

Whether they're tapping to the beat, or working the pedals . . .

I find that shoes can tell an interesting story . . .

Flobots

I feel lucky that I have the opportunity to bring my love of photography and music together. Typically, it’s a concert, or performance of some sort that allows this union.  This night, it was bowling.

I was front and center while some of my favorite bands, including Rise Against, the Flobots, Matt Morris, Tickle Me Pink, and the Epilogues, battled it out on the shiny floors of Belmar’s Lucky Strike to raise money for Flobots.org. It was great to see their off-stage personalities, and change up their comfort zone a bit!
