Jealous Sound and Dead Country @ the Fillmore

I love seeing shows, and I had the treat of being able to shoot a couple of awesome bands at the Fillmore. Dead Country is fronted by Nick Long, who used to be in a band with my brother back in the day. Nick is still rocking, and I really like the Dead Country music. I have an enormous amount of respect for Nick and anyone who is willing to pursue their dreams. You can see more photos from Dead Country's set HERE.

The next band that played was the Jealous Sound. I got hooked on their cd, Kill them with kindness, a few years ago, and have been on it ever since. They also have a self titled album and an ep called, Got Friends. I like their music so much I did some stalking to find the singer's previous band, Knapsack, which I love as well. I guess you could say that I am a mega fan... They played a really good show, and I'm so glad that I got to be there. You can see more photos From Jealous Sound's set HERE.




Another band was headlining, Sunny Day Real Estate, but I got shut down from doing photos of their set. I was still able to pull this one though :) It was an awesome night!

Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival

Alexis and I went this weekend to see Gillian Welsh and Neko Case playing free shows in the park.

Portugal. The Man

I saw Portugal. The Man at the Independent. I always look forward to seeing this band because they are amazing live! Their new cd, the Satanic Satanist, is gold. You should check them out if you get the chance.

Gypsy Kings

My girlfriend, Alexis, is so awesome! She took me to see the Gypsy Kings at the Mountain Winery. I have been working so much that I never get out of the house anymore. I'm lucky that she still likes me ;) On top of being gone all the time, my POS car almost didn't make it to the venue because there was crazy traffic up a steep hill. The gypsy kings were really good.

Langhorne Slim and the War Eagles

I saw one of the coolest alt-country bands tonight! Langhorne Slim  put on such a fun show!!! I was SO stoked to see them play. They have really good music, and a really good performance to go with it.

Minus the Bear and Portugal.The Man

I saw Minus the Bear! If you don't know who they are, you should check them out. They played with another band, Portugal.The Man. I've both of these band a couple of times each. They rock!
