Lack of Updates?

You might have noticed the lack of updates on the site lately. Since the Warped Tour in Scranton at the end of July, I haven’t gone to a show. That’s because I’m starting to cut back on shows, at least temporarily. It’s just too expensive going to all these shows where I currently live. Plus there are other factors as well.

Eastern State Penitentiary @ Philly, PA – 8.9.08

I’ve been meaning to take a trip to Eastern State Penitentiary every since I saw it on the episode of Ghost Hunters. It just looked like a cool place with a lot of history and looked like it would be great to take pictures of as well. That certainly was the case since a lot of people at the prison had a good camera.

Katy Perry @ Warped Tour, Scranton PA – 7.27.08

Katy Perry became famous right as she started the The Vans Warped Tour. I had no idea who the hell she was until she started the tour.

All I know is that everyone needs to get it! Read the review after the jump:

Street Dogs @ Warped Tour, Scranton PA – 7.27.08

Last time I saw Street Dogs, it was back in 2005 on the Warped Tour at Randall’s Island. I got a great shot of Mike jumping from the speakers and I was hoping to get another one this year. The band was one of the few bands I really wanted to check out this year on the tour. Mike always brings his “A game” when he comes to performing and this year they didn’t disappoint either!
