It feels like it's been ages since I've updated the blog...

Let me get this out of the way from jump. It astounds me how inept the Bad Brains management is. Anthony is a nice enough cat (a little on the odd side) the last few times I've tried to sort something out with them it never comes to fruition, which is not a good look for me, because I then have to go back to the publication that's hired me to cover the band and tell them I got nothing. I've given up on those cats, will always love the music though...

Did a shoot with Tommy Brunett last weekend, he's a great dude. Tommy knows his way around a fret board, the new album is killing. "The Drink'n Song" is a personal fave, been giving that tune daily rotation on the turntable, I really dig that he put it out on vinyl. My plan for the shoot was a nice white backdrop, clean, with a few of his favorite guitars, maybe incorporate an amp in the shoot for a vibe...he showed up with his sons Radio Flyer, which made an awesome prop, and an acoustic with a rope for a guitar strap...good times! - Photos below...

I'm doing a shoot with Automatic Loveletter this weekend, should be a lot of fun!

I'm also working on a photo book, very excited about this, it's been a long time in the coming...more on that later...
