I went to the “Brand New” show at the Grog Shop and ran into Vincent outside the venue. They put on a great show, extremely friendly, and had no problem answering a few questions that I had about “The Devil and God are Raging Inside Me” album. Shortly after I met Brian and Jesse and they talked about their upcoming album “Daisy”.  They are coming back to Cleveland in October and I plan on attending.

Photographing fireworks is tough; random lighting, moving subject, and unpredictable people. This fourth of July was covered in fail as the degenerates sitting next to me chain smoked and took pictures of their kids running around with full flash at night. Out of 200+ photos, more than half were ruined as tree’s and children’s faces were lit up as they ran in front of my camera. These are the best that I took… and the last one is an example of a ruined photo caused by the awesome people sitting next/in front of me. Enjoy!
