Man, I need an agent NOW...I dig the whole freelance thing, it's got some plus sides but there are also times when it's an absolute pain...

I got an e-mail earlier from sideonedummy looks like they're going to use one of my photos for the new Casualties album...cool

It's funny cause I was just thinking about this band...I was looking at the line-up for this years Warped tour and it's stellar, looking forward to shooting that...

I think I'm going to cover the Family Values tour as well, actually I could give a s**t about most of the bands on that bill with the exclusion of the Deftones, I've seen them a myriad of times but never gotten proper photos of them...

Got my Busta photos back today, they look good I'll try and publish a few later tonight...

I shot Busta Rhymes on Saturday at the Music Fest...I'll publish photos from that later this week...

Ya know, I don't get parents who bring there 7 and 8 year old kids to a Busta show, actually looking around some of the kids could have been younger than that, well at least the one who got lost and the parents were asked to pick her up at the side of the stage *she couldn't have been any older than 5*

It was appalling watching the kids singing along to some of his new tracks word for word all of them clearly with no understanding of the word Misogyny...I'm all about exposing your kids to music and culture however there should be limits to what they are listening to at certain ages...

When I was 10 and bought my 1st album *with my own money*. I remember vividly bringing that record home and my mom seeing the cover and her saying verbatim "Hold on a second, lets just give that a listen together" she shared in the experience, mom didn't dig there look at all, but she thought the music was hella cool...

I was going to shoot She Wants Revenge in Buffalo tonight, but I'm going to pass and cover the Buzzcocks on Wed instead...

Be Well
Scott
