Velvet Revolver- 7-5-07 Blast from the past!

I was just going through some boxes and came across old discs with images from an old film camera I used to have. Low and behold, I found some images that I forgot taking! First up, is Velvet Revolver from their show at the Whisky on July 5, 2007. I shot most from the balcony and the images are very grainy...but some of you may enjoy. :)

Jane's Addiction 7-2-10 The Roxy

It's not every day my favorite band plays the Roxy. Jane's Addiction tore the roof off! I was so mesmerized that I couldn't take many photos. See?!?! Some things ARE shocking! ;) I took 3 vids and a few photos. But mostly enjoyed the show, sung every word and danced with my friends. All of us with wings! VIVA JUANA'S ADICCIÓN!

The Venice Beach Freakshow warmed the crowd up...photos HERE.

Miss Crash, further warming things up:



I've never seen anything like what happened next, Miss Crash and Jane Jett (you can follow them on twitter: (@misscrash, @janejett) were suspended by their skin and began to swing over the audience as the curtain went down to Jane's ripping through Whores. Visually stunning!












More photos from the show HERE.

Jane's Addiction @ Bardot 5-5-10

Jane's Addiction played a "shorty" (as Perry put it) set at Bardot in Hollywood, CA for El Cinco de Mayo on 5-5-10. The club was packed for the show, which was Duff Mckagan's first show with Jane's Addiction.

I took a few photos between songs, but mostly did video.

Setlist:

Stop
Mountain Song
Had a Dad
Soulmate [new song]
Whores
Pigs in Zen
Ain't No Right
Ocean Size

LA! What a city! MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC!! :)

I don't have any new photos on my website this week...but lots of new videos up on my youtube channel. here

Last weekend was great for live music!

On Friday, September 25th, I attended the Nico Vega show at the Avalon in Hollywood. This was only my third time seeing them, but I am already an avid fan. They are fantastic! The highlight for me was the song "Jesus Baby"...this trio is a force to be reckoned with! Powerful!

The Roxy in West Hollywood was the venue for the Scott Ford benefit held on Saturday September 26th. Several musicians came out to raise money for Scott's medical bills. Performing: Glenn Hughes, Paul Cook, Dave Navarro, Kenny Aronoff, Tom Morello, Wayne Kramer, Billy Morrison, Chris Chaney, Donovan Leitch, Dave Kushner, Duff McKagan, Matt Sorum, Scott Shriner, Jason Heath and the Greedy Souls, Steve O, and last but not least, the man of the hour, Scott Ford. Great night for a great cause!

Chickenfoot, Queensryche and Davy Knowles performed at the Gibson Ampitheater on Sunday September 27th. I shot Davy's set at this past summer's Lollapalooza...backed with his band Back Door Slam. For this show, he was solo. He sounded fantastic and I was really glad I got there eary enough to see him. Queensryche played some music off of their album, which I now want to pick up. At one point, Geoff Tate brought his daughter out for a duet, which was really sweet. Then Chickenfoot came out and tore things up! Loved them! But, then again, how can a band with Sammy Hagar, Michael Anthony, Joe Satriani and Chad Smith not be good? They are a lot of fun to watch!

I will have some photo updates after this weekend...I have an event tomorrow that I'm really excited about. More on that later.
