White Cowbell Oklahoma - Underground - Hamilton, Ontario. This was the craziest band I have ever witnessed, sort of like ZZ Top on steriods... it was nuts... Only the second time photographing a band, I think I got some good shots... Everything was taken with my 20D with 17-55 F2.8 IS.

great set Jeff, only thing is Number one the guy on the right because he has been cut out and you can still slightly see him it bothers me, and i think the last could get away with a heavy crop so you dont see the guy on the right maybe even landscape? 2 3 and 4 are well framed and are just great on 3 there is just a hint of color whch is cool/different, and number 2 could maybe have some blur on the background, but with that, i really like this set.

I really like #3, 4 and 5. I think I'd have cropped #4 and 5 a bit closer.
Looks like a freaky show... Nice way to create instant confetti :D

I can only see a couple of the pictures. Is that guy applying a chainsaw to toilet paper? Well, it is certainly a performance!

I will photograph ZZ Top this week. I also shot them in 2005. They were pretty calm!

Say Dwight... I'm real jealous, that you get to shoot ZZ Top... They rock...:D

Yeah; the images seem to load randomly: This time I can see image #2. I couldn't the first time... I did see some different images when I reloaded the page... I guess I've seen them all now, but never all at once ;)

Oh, John, it doesn't matter who I'm shooting, you're jealous ... and then in six months they'll be at your venue and you'll get over it! :D

OK, OK, let me get this straight Toogy...

There was music playing to all of this... right?.....

Well I thought, I've seen everything... Wait, wait... the guy looks like Ted Nugent, right?

So, it's a take off on Ted?..:rolleyes:

Well... the pictures are pretty cool... Each one is different, but in a good way... I think #5 takes the cake...:D

Say Dwight, these pictures are pretty weird, (but in a good way)... I've got to wait a few weeks before my next show... I recall ZZ Top from my college years... The local venue schedule for the rest of the summer and fall, isn't up yet... I'm getting anxious...:D

Yes, it was the most crazy live act I have ever witnessed, they where really good though. Really tight considering they have 4 guitar players and a bass player. Here's a couple more to really tweak your interest, I hope their not too racy for this forum.

She's got the devil's horns on her head...You don't want to mess with the devil's mistress...

This is quite an elaborate stage act... Not your typical run of the mill rock band, that's for shure... Looks like a lot of fun...

Pity about the singers face behind the mic in the first of those.. Girls pose is good though. I guess I would have been paying most attention there as well ;)
