Chicago.

2009-03-17T00:54:00.002-04:00

Once I get Prometheus (my computer) to stop being a jerk I will get the photos from Chicago up. If you didn't know, which you probably did since I'm pretty sure the only person who checks this is Mae (and she went with me), I was in Chicago this past week. I visited with my other bestie (1 of like 7) and hung out in the city. It was a good time. So I will try to post pics of our wandering through the city.

Right here, the best days of our lives. Is this coincidence or a sign?

Bill & Travis' Bogus Journey :: Buffalo, NY :: November 23rd, 2008.
Hey Monday (no pictures).
Carolina Liar.
We The Kings.
The Academy Is...

Carolina Liar.

We The Kings.
They are amazing every time I see them.

Hunter.

Drew + Dan.

Drew. I love his bass.

Travis.

Hunter+Travis.

Drew.
Minus the hand, I really like this photo.

Drew.
Once again, the hands are ruining my photos.

The Academy Is...
[They used a fog machine. It made taking pictures much more difficult.
I only have so much to work with when I use my digital camera.]

Billvy.

Sisky Biz and lights.

The Butcher.
This man is freaking awesome.

William Beckett.

Micheal Guy Chislett.
I love his shirt. (Sleep when you are dead.)

I love the lighting. It's a little foggy, but still.

Sisky.
I have one of his bass picks.

I don't know what he was doing. But this dude is pretty cool.

Mike Carden.
I was having trouble w/his photos. Everytime I would take one he moved in it.

Look, he can create light. He's just that good.

The Butcher+Adam Siska+Mike Carden.
I adore this photo.

Bill+Travis.
It looks photoshopped, I swear it isn't.

Acoustic!
I loved it.

These boys never fail to give a great show.
Each time I have seen both WTK + TAI the shows have been awesome.
I cannot wait to see them again at another juncture. Both bands are full of great performers.
The shows are completely worth the money + sweaty people in the pits.

Updates soon.

2008-10-30T00:40:00.002-04:00

I realize I have basically disappeared for the last few months. I promise I will have some photos up towards the end of November. I'm going to two shows and I'll post that. I might post some from over the summer, but maybe not. I'm not sure yet. But either way....expect some photos by December. So long I know. I apologize. I've just failed at taking pictures lately. Plus, I really want to use my new camera, but I need to get film..I know real film, CRAZY. But not.

Last show I went to while I was at school before summer break.
Just a fun night with great friends.

The Cab

Danger Radio.

Forever the Sickest Kids

Metro Station.

Not that many pictures.
Busy dancing and having a good time.

Don't steal. Credit.

HCT [part 2]

2008-07-03T01:42:00.009-04:00

So, here is the second installment from Honda Civic Tour.
These are all from the Rochester show.
It's only Panic, but that was because we didn't go down to the pit until The Hush Sound and that was in a bad place for pictures. Motion City Soundtrack just did not happen, since the pit was insane, but sooo amazing. That leaves us getting super close when Panic was on, thus the great pictures.
Without further ado, here they are.

I love the bass.
<3

The lighting was pretty cool.

Jon Walker....I have no words.

Beautiful.

Brendon Urie...stop being so freaking adorable.

Aww, they are friends.
:)

I may have just fallen in love with this picture.
The lighting, the emotion. Just everything.
<3

Psst....look at Spencer.
Freaking awesome.

Bee.
Too much for words.

So some kids threw sweatbands up n stage. And being the awesome guys that they are, they decided to wear them.
I'm not kidding. I want to be best friends with these guys.

Everything about this picture makes me smile.
These boys are precious.

Just yeah......

End of the show.
One of the best concerts I have been to.
No lie.

Thank you boys for being amazing and talented. No really.
I don't know what I would do without your music. You make my life brighter.
Please keep making music until you are physically unable to.
When you are old men, I think you should still be awesome and play shows.
You can totally take on The Rolling Stones.
<3

Please no stealing. That's mean.
Just credit.
Much love.

Honda Civic Tour [part. 1]

2008-07-03T00:32:00.016-04:00

Honda Civic Tour.
Troy, NY. -- May 3, 2008.
Rochester, NY. -- May 6, 2008.

So pretty much, I only had a total of 14 pictures that turned out well from the opening bands. I couldn't help it. Just not the right place to take good pictures, or in the case of Motion City Soundtrack I was too busy trying to stay standing in the pit and move closer to the stage. I will take my Panic! photos and ending position over the others. And really, the experience was awesome regardless.

Phantom Planet.

The Hush Sound.

Motion City Soundtrack.

Panic at the Disco.
You have no idea how much I loved these shows.

Jon Walker.
Not even going to lie. I have the biggest crush on this man.
Too bad he is happily attached, to his precious gf.

He is an awesome bassist.

Ryan Ross may be one of the best lyricists in modern music.
Just saying.

Brendon Urie. What a silly boy.
Amazing voice and the greatest stage presence.

Spencer Smith....
He was much to difficult to photograph. Far back on the stage, AND a one Mr. Ryan Ross decided to stand in front of him way too much.

Example one.

Douse the lights.

I don't even know. But this face is priceless.

No really....freaking great.

I love the passion.

BAREFOOT!
Freaking made my night when I saw this.

It hurts to bass.
:)

Totally caught RyRo watching my camera.
I'm also pretty sure at this moment I told him to stop blocking Spencer...whether or not he heard me....who knows.

But...he got out of my way. So it doesn't really matter.

This boy is precious.

Like seriously.
You can tell he loves what he does.
They all do.

These two photos (top & bottom) may just be some of my favorite of all time.
A joke between bandmates.
I just love it.

No really though, I can't even handle it.
This deserves a tacklehug.

In the moment. <3

I'd hit that.
The tambourine that is.
Well, he is holding a bass....so.
yeahhhh. That is all.

We must reinvent love.
Great song. Great moment.
<3

If you couldn't tell. I am kind of in love with this band. They are just so freaking talented and amazing at what they do. Like really, I would love to be friends with these boys, they just seem like some great people.

As always....don't steal, just credit back.
Please and thank you.
<3

Charlotte Sometimes.

She has the prettiest voice.

This bassist is freaking adorable.

No really. Precious.

They all have such great stage performance.

The Cab.

I love these boys.

Singerface and Crawford.

Ian Crawford.
This kid is so freaking talented. There are no words.

Valencia.

We The Kings.

Amazing.

Oh how I love the bass.

This hand knows what's up.

His face! It shows.

Don't steal. Just credit.
Thanks.
<3

More pictures up soon

2008-06-08T03:17:00.005-04:00

Yeah. I kind of fell off the planet a little. I got busy and then wasn't up to going through and posting pictures.
However, I have gone through the folders from the last four shows that I went to (in a span of 2 weeks) and will have those up within the next few days.
So Maegan....chill out. I will post soon.

<3

Here's this to tide you over.

Random spot in Utah.
Stupidly...this was the only state I took any pictures in during my cross-country roadtrip.

I saw this poster in Starbucks and it made my day.
One, it's coffee and who doesn't love coffee.
Two, it's the sun and the moon, which reminds me of Panic at the Disco and that makes me even happier.
Overall, this poster wins.

Hey guess what?!

2008-04-05T17:03:00.002-04:00

I'm finally caught up on all my photos. Woo.
So now all the pictures will be recent ones.

NYC part 2 : Central Park

2008-04-05T16:40:00.006-04:00

Our journey through Central Park.
And some other random things on the way back.

It was amazing. To say the least.

The John Lennon memorial in Strawberry Fields in Central Park.

It was so amazing. There really aren't words.

Just go there. You will understand.

Every time I saw something that said empire, I immediately thought of Empires.
It made me smile.

Maegan and I.

Just doing our thing.

New York City. 3/8-3/11. 08

2008-04-05T16:16:00.007-04:00

Maegan and I went to NYC for a couple of days during spring break.
One of the best ideas ever. We had so much fun.
I would definitely consider moving out there.
Here is our trip via pictures.

NYC. Times Square[night/day]. Greenwich Village. Pier 41.

Photoadventure. 3.3.08

2008-04-05T15:52:00.006-04:00

The Week before spring break Maegan and I went on a photo adventure.
It was just around campus.
But it happened to be the one nice day that week.
The rest of the week was left for snow.

Cobra Starship & Friends

Gabe didn't lie about the tour name.
See for yourself.

The Cab

Ian Crawford and Alex Deleon.
Both of these boys are amazingly talented.

Ian and Cash Culligan.
There aren't many pictures of the Cab.
I was in an awkward spot for them.

Miley Cyrus' brother is way cooler than she can ever hope to be.
Just saying.

Ryland Blackington.
This man owns when it comes to guitar.

In the moment.
I love it.

I have a thing for bass.
<3

You can't tell from the picture.
But you just got owned in the face by an amazing guitar solo.

Again. Stealing is shitty. Please just credit back here.
Thanks. <3

December 2007. January 2008.

2008-03-20T02:13:00.006-04:00

When I came home for winter break I got to spend time with the kids that my mom babysits.
We made a gingerbread house. It was pretty awesome.

(R to L)Nolan, DJ and myself.
(my mom took this one)

Nolan and Steven.
All the kids make me smile.

Madison, my mom and Makenna in her arms.

I love their faces.

I also went out to Arizona for about a week to visit with my family out there.
I spent time with my cousins and their kids.
I adore them so much.

Cole is one of the funniest kids.
He tells so much just through his facial expressions.

Emma. She reminds me so much of Mary (my cousin.)

Emma, Cole, Nick and my aunt. (L to R)

Lyla and my cousin Corinn.
Lyla is Mary's newest addition to the family.

Emma, Mary and Nick.

Seriously. This kid is adorable.

Fall Out Boy

2008-03-20T01:12:00.009-04:00

One week later.
I wound up in Buffalo, NY at a Fall Out Boy show.
Young Wild Things tour.
November 18th 2007.

Prepare for massive pic spam.

This actually starts from the end of the show.

During Saturday. Which is one of my favorite songs.

So it was really difficult to get good pictures of Andy Hurley.
His drum set was on a riser at the very back of the stage

Acoustic songs will always make me smile.

In case you don't know (although you should).
Joe Trohman, Andy Hurley, Patrick Stump, Pete Wentz (left to right)

I love this picture. ^
In the fucking moment.

These guys are just amazing.

No really.
He will shred your face off.
It's that good.

This is another one of my favorite pictures.
I love the light and and shadow.
Plus, Joe kind of wins.

Again. No stealing. Just credit. Thank you. <3

The Academy Is...

2008-03-20T00:57:00.005-04:00

These are photos I took of the band The Academy Is...
Sleeping with Giants tour in Rochester, NY.
November 10th 2007.

It was pretty amazing to say the least.

Please do not steal these photos. If you want to use them, credit them back to here. Thanks. <3

Sidenote.

2008-03-20T00:54:00.004-04:00

Sorry.
The last two posts were out of order.
I clearly lose at posting pictures properly.
I got distracted and forgot I had a separate sheet that had the Syracuse pictures written down.
We'll try to keep the rest in order. If not...just deal with it.

May 2007. Revisited.

2008-03-20T00:49:00.003-04:00

Last day I was in Syracuse before heading home.
The last day of my first year of college.

This is my lovely roommate. Allison.

November 2006.

2008-03-20T00:35:00.005-04:00

Pictures I took while I was at Allison's house over Thanksgiving break.
During my first semester of college.
Insane, to think about now. heh.

Summer 2007. Revisited.

2008-03-19T02:40:00.005-04:00

Two of my cousins whom I simply adore.
Cole and Emma.

Steph. One of my best friends.

Kate. My other bestie.

My cousin Corinn and her son Nick.

Miss Emma.

Summer 2007.

2008-03-19T02:23:00.005-04:00

More reasons as to why I adore Arizona.
There is something different about desert sunsets.
In general there is just a little something different in the air.
That is why if I'm not near the ocean I will be in the desert.
Or the mountains. But that even works for both.

June 2007

2008-03-19T01:22:00.008-04:00

So. My best friend Kate and I took a road trip to San Francisco the summer after our freshman year.
It may have been one of our best ideas yet. It was so much fun.
Worth every second.

May 2007

2008-03-19T01:10:00.004-04:00

When I got back home, after my first year at college, I went down to Orange to visit Steph.
We took a trip to the L.A. Zoo.

August 2006.

2008-03-19T00:59:00.003-04:00

Shadow fun.

Super windy day.

Summer 2005.

2008-03-19T00:52:00.005-04:00

Arizona. My gram's house.

The sky before a storm.

This is one of the reasons that I love Az so much.

The start of something new.

2008-03-18T19:16:00.003-04:00

There is going to be a flurry of posts.
I'm going to attempt to upload a lot of my photos that have been taken (and are on this computer) from the last couple of years.
I'm not sure how far back yet. But we'll see when they're posted.
And hello~
this new project should prove to be quite fun.
<3
