christa and jo-jo had a party celebrating their new digs on 25th & lorain this night which was quite fun.

they have this awesome mirror(s) in their bathroom and christa was kind enough to pose so i could get this shot. if your ever over there ask if you can use their bathroom and take your camera..

federation-x were at the beachland tavern this night and put on a short yet outstanding set. i have not bought the new CD "rally day" but the few songs i’ve heard from it is sweet!

here is the gallery of the fed-x show.

the CMJ-fest is over and i’m pretty much beat after seeing nearly 30 bands over 4 days with temperatures in the 90s. some of the bands that i shot were: spoon, futureheads, peelander-z, roue, the talk, new lou reeds, grafton, perfect guy, big buildings, mystery of two, home and garden, boatzz and more.

there is a gallery here of my CMJ shots.

CMJ music-fest kicked off the 3 day event in
cleveland with 2 concerts by the pixies. one at the rock & roll hall of fame at 7:30 and a performance at what was formerly known as the "nautica".

this was filmed from my "secret" location and is interrupted a few times by a fellow that was having fun yelling stupid stuff (something about throwing his cell-phone in lake erie, even though the venue is on the cuyahoga..

the song is "where is my mind" that is 8.12mb/5min in size. the real-player video will "stream" just by clicking here.
