I had one of the most exciting nights last Friday as I got to see my favorite band, Circa Survive, live from the front of the stage. I used my all access pass to photograph the show from the pit and got some images that I’m very proud of. Each one was taken with a lot of love. Enjoy.

I was lucky enough to see Colin Hay two years in a row at the McGlohon Theatre. I think he spent more time speaking in between songs than he actually spent playing them. His stories were so engaging that we still wanted to hear more.

Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters – 9/5/2012

The Foo Fighter’s Rock the Vote show in Charlotte was one for the record books. They played almost 3.5 hours (reportedly their longest show ever) and performed 35 songs including 15 encores!
