This is my brother Ryan. He's in a band called Devilution. He thinks he's a rock star. Hi, Ryan!

This is a year old, but I thought I would post it. I haven't posted enough lately, so you get this stuff. This ran last year in the "Independent Weekly," a tabloid sized magazine in the triangle area. The other one is three years old and ran before I re-opened The Brewery. We were almost doomed because we were labeled as a "metal club."

It's been a while since I shot any of the bands at The Brewery. So, when a band called Lansdowne asked me to photograph them for their press kit and promo posters I decided to do it. Here are a few shots from that night this past week.

I started photographing bands over 10 years ago. I began by photographing local bands and pretty quickly started shooting nationals like Helmet at The Mad Monk (now closed) in Wilmington, NC. From there, I worked my way up to bigger acts like KISS, Aerosmith and Megadeth. As cool as it is to photograph the nationals, I still enjoy photographing the baby bands. Here's a shot of the Godsmack tribute band, ReAlign, at The Brewery in Raleigh, NC.

Here are a couple of other pics. The first one is of BJ Barham (from American Aquarium) warming up in the back before he takes the stage. The second shot is of a customer at the bar.

We had an all acoustic show at The Brewery tonight. There were some really cool acts. Here's a shot of one of them, Jason Adamo.

Those cats were fast as lightning!
Hardcore "dancing" at The Brewery.
