There are few certain things in this world but one is that OK Go will always put on a fantastic show. I've seen them in venues of vastly different sizes and they're always just on. Plus they are one of the best bands to photograph, no debate there. They did my favorite song of theirs, Invincible last and though I waited happily for it, the entire show was energetic and fabulous.

I made it to the new Crocodile this week! Caught a great bill which included New Faces, a band from Port Townsend that I have been wanting to see for ages. Fantastic group.

Chester French has these talented songs and I never know where they're going with them. I like that. I like to be surprised when listening to music after all. They're two young guys, D.A. Wallach & Maxwell Drummey, from Massachusetts and bless them for making these super sounds. Guitarist Drummey came out in what was a first for me: a Marie Antoinette-inspired wig. Just awesome.

Germany's Cinema Bizarre, also known to me as one of the hottest bands ever, opened for Lady GaGa the other night. I actually enjoy their music too - honestly I heard them before I saw them. I will have an interview I did with them ready very soon. In the meantime please drool over these photos for, with me.

I couldn't get any shots of their keyboardist, Romeo. Sorry Romeo. Check out the entire gallery here.

Plus I have full galleries ready of Lady GaGa:

Lady GaGa took over the Showbox last night. I've got tons of photos of on their way. Here's a couple:

The Blakes are always worth seeing live because their live performance is not only exciting but the music sounds different from their CDs. They’re anything but lazy performers. I don’t think I quite forgot how great a song Pistol Grip is - but Friday’s show proved again just how great and dirty it is.

I'll have more photos soon!

Iglu & Hartly came to Seattle last week and played a fantastic set at Chop Suey. I love every single song this band has. They're unreal.

I am catching up, slowly but surely, on photos & interviews etc. I took some pix of Kings of Leon last week when they played the Paramount. This is a photogenic group if there ever was one. I especially like this photo of drummer Nathan Followill blowing a bubble.


Nathan Followill and Caleb Followill of Kings of Leon

Kings of Leon's fans are party animals - I was impressed by their enthusiasm and just craziness in general. Here is more photographic evidence of why the girls just go insane for these guys:

Enjoy.

I took some pix of Angels and Airwaves when they opened for Weezer a couple of weeks ago. I really, really, really like this band. According to a photographer friend of mine who was shooting with me, I was going all giddy. Well, here's why:
