Green Day at Madison Square Garden
I’m terribly behind on posts due to a couple of big projects, so I’m going to try to knock out a few in the next two or three days. First off, I shot my first concert at Madison Square Garden a few weeks ago. Green Day were headlining New York’s biggest stage and the Atlantic [...]
Photo of the Day 5/28/2009: Dave Vanian
About two weeks ago, I got the opportunity to photograph one of my favorited bands, The Damned, at Irving Plaza in NYC. The band gave me the rare opportunity to shoot for as long as I wanted with flash (a rarity for concert photographers). After a few minutes, I found out why. The band plays [...]
Iron Maiden by the Light of a Canon G9
Iron Maiden Originally uploaded by GLK Creative This entire set was shot with a Canon G9 point and shoot. For those on the fence about getting one, stop thinking, The G9 is the best sub-pro camera and handy in situations where you are forbidden to bring in a pro camera. Case in point: For some [...]
Hero Worship: Mick Jones
Last night, I got the rare opportunity to photograph one of my heroes at a club that holds 350 people. Chances like these don’t pop up to often, and when you get the call that Clash guitar slinger Mick Jones is in town with his new band, you come running. The show was at my [...]
Unholy Matrimony: My Love for Lightroom
Click the links below from more shots from The Horrorpops: Flickr Set or GLK PHOTO slideshow Anyone who shoots photos for more than just fun must check out Adobe’s photo management system Lightroom. The program is the ultimate workflow tool and has been a godsend since I downloaded the beta version over a year ago. [...]
GLK Creative in Savage Tattoo
As if the spread in last month’s Inked Magazine wasn’t cool enough, Savage Tattoo is running a bunch of my Dropkick Murphy’s photos to compliment a feature story by Scott McCool. Check out the April 2008 edition on sale now.
Grayscale Bombers
Click for full photoblog of the event One of the worst clubs in the world to take photos at is the Asbury Lanes in lovely Asbury Park, NJ. Don’t get me wrong, this vintage bowling alley is a rockabilly wonderland teeming with fantastic live music, ’50s flair, and great food and beer. However, the lighting [...]
Davey Havok, AFI
I couple of months back I posted my most popular photo based on stock purchases, but I just took a look at my Flickr stats and this is by far the most popular photo I’ve ever taken (at least among the under 18 and female set). Like the description says, I snapped this photograph of [...]
Happy New Year!!!
Gogol Bordello live at Terminal 5. Click here for a full photolog of Gogol Bordello What did you do for New Year’s Eve? I eschewed the usual parties and ball watching to check out the best show going down in NYC–Gogol Bordello. Led by the enigmatic and ultra-cool Eugene Hutz, Gogol Bordello are a gypsy [...]
It's a Shame About Nothing
Friday, December 21, 2007 The Lemonheads at Highline Ballroom
Red Kross Redux
I was expecting a lot of things when I went to see Day 5 of Yo La Tengo’s 8-nights of Hanukkah concert series, but I sure wasn’t expecting legendary punk band Red Kross to open the show. Luckily, the audience wasn’t as packed together so I was able to fire off a few shots in [...]
Touch Me, I'm Sick
Mudhoney at the Bowery Ballroom on December 2, 2007
Koffin Kats Rock
One of my favorite places to see a show is also one of my least favorite venues to take photos at—The Asbury Lanes. Located, in the newly revitalized beach front area of Asbury Park, The Asbury Lanes is a vintage ’50s bowling alley that looks like it’s been hidden under sheets for more than half [...]
Working the Floor
The Gallows opened up for Bad Religion last night and the singer of the band decided to play the whole set from the floor. I’ve seen plenty of singers dive into the crowd for a note or two, but this guy just stood there screaming and running around for half an hour while his band [...]
