KISS was back in town for their 35th anniversary tour.  My first memories of KISS was when I was very young and seeing posters of them on my uncle’s wall in full make up and being petrified…kind of cool that 30 years later they’re still around and that I got to shoot them in their make up.  It’s a bummer Ace and Peter weren’t there but still one of the most fun shoots of the year.  You can check out the full galleries on www.theywillrockyou.com from Boston and CT.

The U2 2009 Tour features the most amazing staging I’ve ever seen.  When it took up residence on the New England Patriots field it dwarfed it making the field look my backyard.  The 60K plus fans showed up early for what would probably be a once in a lifetime experience with a band that is undoubtedly one of the world’s favorites.  Photographers were positioned behind the general admission pit on the floor for this shoot.  Being a huge Patriots fan and a season ticket holder I was able to look up from the field and see what I might look like in my seats to Tom Brady, and as you may have guessed, I look like a little tiny speck, but definitely an excited speck.  You can see the full set on www.theywillrockyou.com here.

Summer concert season is here!  Wahoo!  This is my favorite time of the year to be a concert photographer because there’s just so much going on, it’s a very exciting time!  I kicked off the season setting the bar pretty high with the NINJA tour featuring Nine Inch Nails, Janes Addiction and Street Sweeper Social Club.  I had never shot Janes before and I’m a huge Dave Navarro fan so needless to say I was a happy camper.  You can check out the full galleries here.
