Got confirmation last week to shoot this year’s Warped Tour. I don’t know how many years it’s been since shooting my first Warped Tour but I always look forward to shooting the tour. I’ll be attending the July 15th date at Toyota Pavillon in Scranton, PA with my girlfriend. I believe the Warped Tour starts up this week too!

I have never seen Carbon Leaf before but they put on one hell of a show! I liked their performance at the Highline Ballroom so much, I’ll be seeing them again on July 17th at the Loft in Poughkeepsie, NY. The band is currently on tour to support their newest album “Nothing Rhymes with Woman,” which is out on Vanguard Records. The album is similar to Love, Loss, Hope, Repeat and that’s not a bad thing at all!

The Alternate Routes opened up for Carbon Leaf last week at Highline Ballroom in New York City. The band hails from Connecticut and have a indie folk, bluesy rock sound. The band is filled with energy and sound really cool. If you want a full review of the concert, read the review at ReadJunk.com.

It’s the final day of our vacation, and probably one of my favorite days on the trip. We booked a day tour through Bus Éireann and went to Powerscourt Gardens, Glendalough and Wicklow Mountains. If you get the chance to see any of this stuff, be sure to pick a nice day for it. We lucked out this day and got some beautiful, sunny weather before all the rain came later on.

Day 6 of our Dublin, Ireland vacation was spent in the seaside towns of Malahide and Howth. If you plan on spending any time in Dublin, I highly recommend spending a day or two outside the city and explore the seaside villages & towns. I particularly loved Howth and wish I spent the day there instead of just a half day.

Day 4 of my Dublin, Ireland vacation was a nice day filled with museums, galleries, churches and yes, even more walking! Kristen and I first went to the National Museum of Ireland, which was located by Merrion Square. It offered up a nice collection of ancient Celtic jewelry, clothing, shoes, and weapons. They had a great Viking exhibit there as well. I liked that part of the most because I just love seeing old weapons and swords, plus seeing cracked human skulls was pretty damn cool!

Day 2 of Dublin was a great day. Kristen and I got a lot accomplished after getting a night’s rest. We purchased a Dublin Pass for a day, which pays for a bunch of attractions and stuff in Dublin. It was well worth getting it if you plan on using it. We ended up going to the Dublin Zoo, Kilmainham Goal, Guinness Storehouse and St Patrick’s Cathedral.

I finally went to one of the places I always wanted to visit, Ireland! My girlfriend Kristen and I just got back from Dublin on Monday and I have over 2000 photos to go through. I’ll have seperate blog posts on each day I visited Ireland. These photos are from the first day, where we landed early in the morning. I didn’t get much sleep on the plane, maybe 15 minutes of sleep? But for some reason, I was functioning for most of the day. After we got our hotel room down in the Grand Canal Docks, we ended up walking around the city most of the day.
