New Blog!

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Tue, 31 Mar 2009 22:26:10 -0700

As you may or may not have noticed, I kind of stopped updating this blog. Nothing against Vox, but I just felt it was time to move on and try something different. I also seemed to be suffering from some major writers block {not that I'm a real wri...

Slipknot

I have never really been a fan of their music, but Slipknot really does put on one hell of a show. I Had the opportunity to shoot them in Sacramento on Wednesday, and it was a pretty wild 10 minutes in the photo pit, to say the least. More photos ...

Twisted Sister

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 22:07:50 -0800

I have always like Twisted Sister, and I'm not afraid to admit it. Go ahead, take away my metal credentials, but you cannot deny that the bands pre-"We're Not Gonna Take It" material was pretty heavy. Kind of New York Dolls meets early Motörhead. ...

Social Distortion Live @ The Fox Theater!

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 02:16:44 -0800

Last night I had the opportunity to photograph Social Distortion, who played the first show at the just renovated and truly spectacular Fox Theater. Unfortunately the release I had to sign prevents me from posting any of my pictures at this time, ...

Meshuggah Live At Slim's

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 23:40:34 -0800

After suffering through six so-called "metal" bands during the previous 28 hrs, I needed a dose of real metal more than the junkies across the street from my house need their methadone. Fortunately, Meshuggah hit Slims' stage at precisely 10:26PM ...

Coachella?

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 22:23:43 -0800

After a less than stellar experience at Coachella in 2004 {with the exception of seeing Kraftwerk}, I decided that no band was worth the unorganization, traffic, parking, heat, scheduling conflicts, douche-bags, and $8 beers that comes along with ...

An evening of Amebix

nobody@vox.com(Ray) — Mon, 26 Jan 2009 21:47:30 -0800

Check back at this space in December, and I'm pretty sure that I will have ranked Amebix as my "Show Of The Year", or at the very least in my top three. Yeah, it's only January, and I will probably hit AT LEAST another 40-50 shows this year, but H...
