Billy Talent live @ The Rockhal May09

Billy Talent live @ ...

 The band from Ontario opened up with quite some speedy tracks, but then ……. the awesome “Rusted From The Rain” …. I gotta tell you. If you haven’t seen/heard that song performed live, then you’ve missed something amazing. Check it out on youtube or...

The Joy Formidable @ Den Atelier Feb01

The Joy Formidable @ Den Atelier

I was a bit disappointed to see that the venue was not sold out for a band the likes of Joy Formidable. But there were scheduling issues which led to a huge delay and I think a lot of people didn’t wait. The sound of Joy Formidable was quite different from what you can hear on the CD. But that’s not necessarily bad. Ritzy Bryan is a bundle of energy on stage and delivers an impressive show. On a technical note: The light was really tough on this one. One really bright spot on Ritzy Bryan at all times tend to make the rest of the stage really dark on the pictures. There were also a lot of magentas but luckily no reds. I used...

What can I say, …. you need to see Herman Li on stage to believe it’s possible to play guitar as fast as he does! I’ve seen my share of impressive artists. Herman Li ranks amongst my Top 5 so far. You don’t get enough of him once he’s warmed up and into his...

Halestorm @ The Club

The first time I’ve photographed Halestorm I was really impressed. They were on stage with Papa Roach, Buckcherry and Disturbed during the “Taste of chaos 2010″ tour. It’s very rare to see such an explosive energy on stage.  I’ve rarely seen a show like this one. If anyone from the band or crew is reading this, .. all I can say is : AWESOME !!!!!!!! It’s the first time I’ve seen a drummer stand on his drums and continue playing ……… and yes I  mean that literally, check the pictures. Trust me, if they perform close to you, don’t miss them you will be blown away. On a...

Shinedown @ The Club

The Florida based band shot to fame in 2003 mainly due to their “Lynyrd Skynyrd” cover “Simple Plan”. The album “Leave a Whisper” and their promotional tour were a huge success. And thus the fame of the band kept on growing. It was thrilled when I saw that...

Nightwish @ The Rock...

I love those moments just after the lights go out, a few seconds before the band appears on stage. Fans scream, .. you know that you’re up soon. Nightwish had a killer show opening which intensified the said feeling, .. awesome. The band was created in 1996 and has toured a lot, which...
