Shooting Three Concerts In One Night...

So, a couple of months ago I shot three different concerts at three different venues in one evening. The music was varied, country-psychobilly-dj/rap. It was quite a bit of work running around and getting the timing right, but I was able to shoot all the bands on time. Worked out well. Have a look see.

First up was Lyle Lovett and his large band at Starlight Theatre.









Next up I drove over to The Crossroads to catch, The Reverend Horton Heat. The Rev never disappoints and played a fiery set.













And finally spinning at the Power & Light stage in downtown KC was DJ legend, Grandmaster Flash. He was great to see up close and he spun some classic hits. I love old school rap, and the crowd was loving it as well.

Glasvegas

One of my favorite newish bands is the Scottish band, Glasvegas. Fronted by a charismatic singer, James Allen, Glasvegas has won many fans around the world including U2 and Kings of Leon, which Glasvegas will be opening for this fall/winter.
If you haven't listened to the band head on over to itunes for a demo of some of their songs. Thick Scottish accent with heartbreaking lyrics with fuzzed out guitars and a cool 50's sound. I talked to James on the tourbus and he told me his main influences were Elvis Presley and U2.
