The Robots LIVE 5/3/13

I went to The Track Lounge, photographed, finally looked at the pictures and said Wow!!!  I setup my flash to use it for the first time.  I thought the photos came out interestingly cool, however, I now think the ambient lighting and brighter walls at The Track Lounge had a lot to do with it.

The Track Lounge has gone through some remodeling the last couple months.  They opened the area on the back side of the bar, creating a horseshoe bar that allows more access, and the lounge seats more people.  The place is brighter, which was great for photography.  Thanks to The Robots for letting me experiment on them.  I will be back to do it again next month!!!!!

Here are some photos of the evening.  I tried bouncing the flash off the wall, off the ceiling, and no flash at all.  You may see which was which in the photos.

Pete & Kelly LIVE 4/27/13

I like music. I watch American Idol. (I watch dance too, and watch Do You Think You Can Dance.) We are in awe of the talent in these TV shows, which is why we watch. This night, it was proven to me once again that our local talent is even better, as I stayed to watch my friends Pete & Kelly do their acoustic show at Rother's Pub in La Porte, IN. The best duo acoustic music I have ever seen and listened to . . .

Kelly is the lead singer. He stands out as an accomplished singer. I first saw him when he came to Crown Point to see Pete, and sang with The Robots. He has a rock star quality voice and presence. He leaves it on the floor for us, going home empty.

I have known Pete now for over a year. Pete and Kelly have known each other what seems forever. Pete is an excellent lead guitar player, and now a song writer. With these two together (guitar and writing; Pete & Kelly), you get one powerful punch of acoustic music. Do not forget Pete and The Robots . . . that is one electrocution!!!!

Here are some photos of the evening for you to enjoy. La Porte is a pretty cool town. Worth making the drive on a sunny day, and when the sun goes down, kick back with Pete & Kelly at Rother's Pub. As the days get sunny, I plan to do just that . . .

Purposely Exposed This Way

Oh I love music. I love these guys. I love the fact I met Renee Wicinski, or I would not have been pushed back into photography, nor would I have met Pete, or Kelly.

My life has been great so far. Picking up the camera again after 32 years has been a blessing. I have met many artists, made a lot of friends, and have the passion and commitment to photograph and write what I "see", so that you can too.

You can check out Pete & Kelly on their facebook page, Pete & Kelly.

Let us not forget Rother's Pub either; Website , Facebook
