On July 16th, I attended Leechburg’s Pink Day‘s annual event, Notes for Hope Music and Food Truck Festival at the Hyde Park Heritage Pavilion. The event featured: Jerry B and the Bone Tones, Miss Freddye Stover and her Blues Band, Lenny Collini 4PaK, Marshall & the Deputies, Steel Mill Rising, Bill Toms & Hard Rain, and King Lou Hock and his Flying Circus. The food trucks in attendance were: Anything Rolls Egg Rolls, Cup and...
Shattered, a band that has played many Rock for Life Concert Series shows over the years, asked us to take photos of them at this year’s Gigaroo! What this did for me was put me in my favorite venue to shoot with one of my all time favorite bands that I’ve seen on that stage. I took over 347 shots of them on this day! This is just a small portion of what I ended...
J Roger Davis‘ new band, BLK Forest Ham, invited me out to their first gig together. This brought me to another new to me venue, Paradise Park in Cowansville, PA. BLK Forest Ham were playing at the Fostering Music Summer Shindig a stop on the Rock Done Right Tour by 97.7FM. The venue itself is situated about 10 miles outside of Kittaning, PA on a sizeable, beautiful property. The stage is part of a huge...
I was put on assignment today by our leader, Jana. I believe it went like this, “Since you’re already going to be there, do you think you could take a few shots of Amanda fronting Silence Follows?” Assignment accepted.

I made a return trip to Squirrel Hill Sports Bar for another round of bands and photos. A mere 3 months ago, I had this to say about the venue, “There are a few more things needed to complete the transformation, but all-in-all the new stage at the Squirrel Hill Sports Bar will be a great addition to the music scene!” I walked into the venue and was immediately impressed. Barry and company had added...
This is a story about chicken & rice, sort of. A little about me to start this series off, well things you probably don’t know. I am a father of 3, including a 13 year old and 11 year old twins. I do a lot of cooking for our family. To say that I hit something that they all like every night, or even half the nights would be a lie. Sometimes I look in...
I made my first trip to Brandy’s Basement to check out Sahayra and Brad Abbott. Between both acts it was a nice mix of 70’s, 80’s, & 90’s covers. Both acts also mixed in their originals. I found myself singing along and clicking away on the shutter button. Brandy’s offers great sound, lights, and atmosphere to scene! I would love to shoot some more bands there given the chance. I didn’t have a chance to...
I am slightly late to the game on this one. Stone Divide released their song, “Old Steel City“, on November 14, 2021 and made their live debut on December 12, 2021 at Khyber Pass Pub. The band says fans of Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Black Sabbath, Halestorm, Kyuss, and Clutch will like their musical stylings. Having only heard the one track, I am not going to steer you in any direction on those names, but...
