(like getting a 5.7 when you want a 6+)
but,
if you try sometimes,
you just might find,
you get what you need

Sweet Skip!! And if they ever make their way down here, let me know. Sounds like a killer band. Can't go wrong with the Man in Black. :)

Way to go Skip! - eh - I mean Mr. Rowland.
Some day the goofy Skip Mr. Rowland pics I have will be surfacing at a celebrity roast or similar.  |

You've been around here long enough to know pretty and uncluttered wins. And no complainin', Mr. "I've got AP after my name" Rowland. :-) |

thanks all ya'll!
this shoot really was a trip. when the call came in for the assignment, they told me the band went on at 9:30pm, to be there at 9. when i got there at 9, there was NOBODY there except the sound guy. he told me the band went on at 11-thirty!!!
so i went home and took a nap.
came back, paid (again) for parking, ran into lead singer matt litton in the alley on the way in, and we hit it off. i shot their first set, finished up about 1, made it to bed about 2. the shoot was a blast, but boy, did i pay for it...
the next day, i felt so hungover--and that sucked, because i didn't even have the benefit of a buzz. see, i quit smoking 16 years ago. this bar, though, seemed to have a policy that in addition to the cover charge, you had to have a pack of smokes to get in. really. i don't think i saw a single person in there who wasn't lighting up. and sunday afternoon, when i opened my camera bag, it looked like a volcano getting ready to blow...i swear a huge cloud of smoke escaped. it reeked! such is life.
as for the challenge, i probably should have gone with this image and titled it to hook into the 'school days' description ;-)

Great job. That AP looks pretty good...
I can't get past the "contributed by" mode.

Great job as usual Skip. I love to hear your stories of success. You are very inspirational. Keep up the good work, and of course, post it here. |

The story of the shot is at least as inspiring as the work. Thanks for sharing. |
