Lollapalooza Photo Review: The Raconteurs
Well, what can I say. It’s the The Raconteurs. This was the second time I shot them within a few months. Since photogrpahers only get the first 3 songs of each set, it was the exact same songs that I shot them playing at Bonnaroo. I think they came out better then ‘Roo, the stage [...]
Lollapalooza Photo Review: Grizzly Bear
I pretty much shot Grizzly Bear because they are opening for Radiohead this year and Sigur Rós who opened for them on the last tour was so good. I’d have to say Grizzly Bear is kinda like a mellower Beach Boys not from the beach. Not really impressed. My photos of them, not really impressive [...]
Lollapalooza Photo Review: Mates of state
Yet another duo I shot on Friday was Mates of State, hailing from San Francisco. I have to say I was impressed. You can check them out a bit more form Spinner at the Interface or their MySpace page.

Lollapalooza Photo Review: Free Sol
Don’t know a whole lot about Free Sol, but I shot them and here they are  They have a great drummer and the vocalist was pretty good as well.
Lollapalooza Photo Review: Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears
I had some extra time between shows so I caught up with someone I never heard. Which I have to say is the joy of going to large festivals like Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza. Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears where playing the smaller “BMI Stage” and I figured I’d go check them out. Another Austin, [...]
Lollapalooza Photo Review: The Black Keys
Since I already ran one photos of Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys, I figured I would run a few different today. Dan and drummer Patrick Carney rocked out as normal, playing quite a bit from their newest album, Attack & Release. The Akron duo is always a crowd pleaser though.
Lollapalooza Photo Review: The Kills
The British post-punk duo The Kills was next on my list. Even though American born Alison “VV” Mosshart later passed out from heat exhaustion, the songs I saw her and Brit guitarist Jamie “Hotel” Hince play where damn good. I recommend picking up an album or two of theirs.
Lollapalooza Photo Review: The Go! Team
I decided to actually show off some of my images from Lollapalooza this year. Each day I’ll feature another band, in the order I shot them. So, Friday I started it all with The Go! Team, fun band and they made for some nice photos.
Ted Talks: David Griffin
Great talk from The photo director for National Geographic, David Griffin. He speaks about the power of photography and how photojournalism connects everyone with the world around us.
Image searching remastered
Wow, talk about changing how to track down copyright, or for some of us Photo Editors, how to find an image all together, this rocks. TinEye searches visually instead of using keywords to find images. Very cool. You can search here or install a Firefox plugin.

This is cool. when I get an phone, and this becomes available to the general public I’m totally doing this. Estimated cost of $70-$80 is totally worth it. Golden Shellback Waterproof Coating from gCaptain.com on Vimeo.
