Ozzfest tore it up this year.  Lots of bands played really well, and I have some great photos on the way.  I figured I'll do one band from both Warped Tour and Ozzfest each time I update.  First up are Avenged Sevenfold and As I Lay Dying.  Click the logos below to see the photos.

7-30-05

Bleeding Through and Darkest Hour photos from the Strhess Tour have been added to the site. 

Today I headed to the Pontiac Silverdome to shoot The Vans Warped Tour (sick photos on the way), and then on Thursday I will be shooting Ozzfest, so look for tons of new photos next week.

More cool news from Alternative Press: I have been added to their photo request list, so now I have a chance to get photos into every issue of the magazine.  The only bad thing about that is they don't really label who shot what, they just put your name in the photographers list, so you'll never know what I've shot.  But it's the thought that counts.

I'm working on getting passes for Gigantour (Megadeth, Dream Theater, etc.), cKy, and Motley Crue at the moment.

I hope everyone had a happy Halloween out there.  The guys and I dressed up as Team America this year.  I'll put up a photo soon.

If your Halloween wasn't particularly evil enough for you, then check out these sick Unearth photos from early October at St. Andrews Hall.  Big big thanks to Terror's tour coordinator Frankie for hooking me up with the all access pass, when I got there and my photo pass was nowhere to be found.
