Day 40 – Sharply Dressed Men: Today has been spent almost entirely editing photos from the ZZ Top/Steel Panther show in Wolverhampton last night.  I was one of only five photographers allowed to cover the show, so feel really, really honoured to have done so.  My review will go up on The Daily Dust soon.

Day 39 – Feel the Steel: This handsome chap is called Satchel, and he plays guitar in the amazing band Steel Panther.  I interviewed him this evening for The Daily Dust before his band opened up for classic rock legends ZZ Top at Wolverhampton Civic Hall.  Death to all but metal!

Day 19 – Busy, Busy, Busy: Forgive me for living in the past somewhat, but today has all been about yesterday for me.  I’ve spent the whole day editing a mountain of pics from last night’s Papa Roach gig in Wolverhampton, which is why today’s pic is another from then.  The guy in today’s shot is Matthew Leone, a very nice chap who plays bass with Madina Lake.  I interviewed him for The Daily Dust and grabbed a few shots of him afterwards.  He was very welcoming and genuine, as were the rest of his bandmates, and it was a pleasure to get to meet him!

Day 18 – Are You Ready to Rock?: So, I’ve just got back from one of the gigs of the year at Wolverhampton Civic Hall, and I was lucky enough to meet all of the bands involved and get some cool portraits of them.  The show was headlined by the stars of today’s picture – Papa Roach – who were really friendly and welcoming people and a pleasure to do a portrait session with as they are one of my all-time favourites.  Then there was support from Madina Lake who were possible the nicest and most genuine guys I’ve ever met in a band, and also British lot Heaven’s Basement.  I was covering the gig for my new live music section on the Daily Dust, so keep checking there for the review and interviews from tonight’s show.
