Here it is 2AM and I'm posting to my blog... just wanted to throw a teaser up before I head to Portland in the morning. I'll post more pics from the day when I return. See you in about 10 days!

I survived...
Yes I got spit on, yes I got sweat flung on me and this year I was even treated to a kick in the back of the head while a crowd surfer was being pulled into the photo pit. Pretty standard day of shooting the Vans Warp Tour. I think I even caught myself having fun, I know these folks were...

Vans Warp Tour 2009...
Last year was the first year I ever photographed the Warp Tour, I swore I wouldn't do it again.
But... what the heck!
I could you some more spit and sweat in my face while I'm moshing in the photo pit with other photographers who are scrapping to get the same exact shot...
Stay tuned for 2009's images which I will post after I return from my art show in Portland next week.

Month long break between SB Bowl shows...
The SB Bowl has a month long gap between shows, so I've been posting filler material for fun to fill the hole.
Tomorrow, my wife and I are having guests come over for a BBQ which is a good thing because if we don't do stuff like this, we sit and stare at our computers for hours and hours every day and the house never gets a good cleaning! Aahh, the life of self-employed photographers.
I decided to spruce up my office which is in a state of undeniable neglect. Buried under a few forms from the CA State Board of Equalization (telling me how to start filing online), an "Out of Town Customer Measurement Form" with my tuxedo specs for a wedding I'm going to be the best man at in Milwaukee, WI, and several old price lists for artwork from shows I've been in... I found two misplaced rolls of developed B&W film from concerts I shot last year.
Hey, something to blog about! They were from three shows... George Clinton, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club and STP. So, I did quickie scans of my favorite shot from each performance and here they are...
And hey... they are all smoking. Well, you don't see George smoking but we all know he was.

Photo assistants...
Back in the day I was able to bring an assistant to shows with me at the SB Bowl. Really, it was just someone to watch my bag while I had my back turned (there was no real photo pit back then) and then hang out with the person for the rest of the show after shooting.
Here is my brother, Tyrum, keeping an eye on my camera at a Beck show in 2000. Doesn't he look thrilled to be there? This was when the SB Bowl was called the "County Bowl" and it still had lawn and trees.
