The Echo
I went to see KAV on Wednesday at the LA Buzz Bands showcase at the Echo. They were great! My favorite song was Lizard King- and not because it has anything to do with Mr. Mojo- because it doesn't...you can here for yourself on their Myspace
The photos I took are HERE

Pershing Square
On Thursday, I went to Pershing Square in Downtown LA to see I Will Never Be The Same and Dramarama. This ice skating/concert event is ongoing and seems to be the best kept secret in LA. I wish there was better coverage/press on this because it should be completely packed! Parking is cheap, you can ice skate for $8 for an hour while listening to bands. This past Thursday, it wasn't just any band...it was one of my fave new bands- IWNBTS!

Fishbone@HOB, Camp Freddy@The Roxy
I started off my Friday night by going to the Fishbone show at the House of Blues on Sunset. Fun show that had me grinning from ear to ear. I was left wishing I had some of Angelo's energy! I took a few videos...
Alcoholic
Party at Ground Zero
After Fishbone's set, I headed over to see the first of 3 December dates that Camp Freddy is playing at the Roxy. I normally take video of their shows (check out my youtube... www.youtube.com/LAwomanPhotography) but there were signs all over the outside of the venue saying per CF's request, no cameras. So, I respected that. I caught the beginning of the opening band "Warner Drive" (their MYSPACE). They were good and I'd like to check out their full set sometime. Their next show is on December 12th at the Dragonfly. Next up were the Darling Stilettos. They performed longer than I'd seen them in the past and seem to have incorporated original music into their set. Either that or they were playing covers I didn't know. Camp Freddy finally hit the stage, after an unusually long delay- around 12:15. Guests were: Steve Jones, Steve Stevens, Frankie Perez, Susanna Hoffs, Vicki Petersen, Travis Barker, Mickey Avalon, Fred Durst and Mark McGrath.

The Actor's Gang
I attended the WTF! festival at the the Actor's Gang to help support the organization...oh, and to see Tom Morello! :) For more information, please go HERE. Tim Robbins, the Actor's Gang founder and Artistic Director, was on hand to introduce Tom. Those in attendance were fortunate enough to see the Nightwatchman in a very intimate setting- theater seats 100-150 people. After Tom played several songs, Shooter Jennings came out and performed a medley on his guitar, then moved to the piano. Tom came back out, plugged in and the two of them proceeded to tear the roof off! Highlights were Bruce Springsteen's "Ghost of Tom Joad" and Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land". Tom even got most of the audience on their feet to sing, clap and jump up and down to the last verse of This Land!

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.
