I think I was the second or third round choice of winners for this Q104.3 classic radio contest to see an invitation-only Joe Walsh concert. I've loved him since his 1970 album "james gang rides again".
Anyway, I got an email yesterday from Q104.3's work perks saying I had won: for last night. I asked Barb (the wife) first but she said no, so I went to my friend Bruce Frazier. This became the third concert we have seen together since 1990.
It was a stand up only concert in the tiny but neat iheartradio theater. Joe is amazing: It seems he hasn't changed since the early 70's. He was great as ever.
One change maybe... it was a 45 minute show with no encore.
But it was one awesome rockin' 45 minutes.
I got to photography Whitney Houston along with Bebe & Cece Winans at a NJ Nets basketball game back in the early '90's for a radio station. She was there along with her mom Cissy and a girlfriend. It was a trip to listen to all four (2 Winans & 2 Houstons) singing just for fun in the Net's bathroom before the show. Commercial photography takes you places you would never imagine... We'll miss you girl.
I did two shots this time for the Wolves vs Lions T-Shirt company. This is the band Sirens who use band shirts designed by the Wolves vs Lions folk. Here they are wearing Wolves vs Lions' own designs. We shot this image in the woods and a second in a garage while they broke up computer equipment (I'm not sure why). I got punched in the eye a few weeks ago as I shot this band by a whirling idiot. At least I was able to keep the camera safe. If you live anywhere near northern NJ, go see this band. They drive hard and I like it. Just watch out for the "dancers".
