I'm behind about a month in posting. Very busy. This July was one of my biggest income months in photography ever ... remembering this is just a part time gig for another three years! Thankfully, August looks like less than half the load so maybe I can finally do some "optional" projects ... plus I just bought a boatload of Photoshop Plugins from various outfits that I want to learn to use ... if I can't be creative on my own I'm sure gonna' try an alternate route!

Anyway, I have three postable July concerts, starting with Steppenwolf. Visually boring but nice tunes.

#1 Obligatory collage:

Agree that it's visually boring ;) Only so much you can do...

Stage overview: I'd try to correct the blown magenta on the left most guy. Easy to do in LR2...

I think I did correct the vocalist but the bass player looked pretty far gone/soft and I decided to leave him.

Getch yer motor running.....
Great stuff!

I'm always amazed to hear that certain musicians have survived, and still look young.
No exception here,..

Pete Seeger is 90!!!!

Hey, ain't you 99? :-) Always odd when there's only one guy from the original group but they hang onto the band name like gold! :-)

Me, too! :-)

Love the close ups... Great to see them performing... The sounds of Steppenwolf filled the dorms, back during school years... It's always fun to hear and see them.
