Sammy Hagar & The Circle One of my favorite songs growing up was “Rock Candy” by Montrose. It’s got a feeling behind it that clicked with me the first time heard it, and it still has the same effect today. Well, unknown to me at the time, that was my introduction to “The Red Rocker”,…… more
Incubus When I heard that Incubus was coming to Fivepoint Amphitheater in Irvine I knew I had to go. I have wanted to see this band live for years, but every time they were in So Cal… I wasn’t. This time it was a bucket-list show to see and photograph, and they lived up to…… more

This was one of the best performances I have seen in…… more
Concerts are back! It’s been so long since I photographed a concert and wrote one of these posts that I am beyond excited. Concerts are back So Cal, and Saturday night I was able to kick things off with the Rise Against Nowhere Generation Tour at FivePoint Amphitheater, with openers The Menzingers and Descendents. FivePoint is…… more
