AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: UNSANE/Big Brave @ Hard Luck, December 16, 2017
The last time Unsane came to town was back in 2010, when they headlined a killer triple bill with Today is the Day and…

AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR @ DAYS OF DARKNESS: Day Two, October 29, 2017
Day Two of Darkness was all killer, (almost) no filler. You had Boris playing Heavy Rocks, Warning playing Watching from a Distance and Bongripper playing a 60-minute set…
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR @ DAYS OF DARKNESS: Day One, October 28, 2017
Day One had a very varied lineup, with the likes of 90’s sludge outfit Cavity, 70’s rock heroes Captain Beyond, 80’s underground legends Manilla Road and the timeless Neurosis…
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR @ DAYS OF DARKNESS: Friday Preshow, October 27, 2017
Just got back from Baltimore, and boy, are my eardrums tired! Over three days of an expertly curated (mostly) heavy music lineup, I took over 550 pictures of almost 20 bands.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: ELDER/King Buffalo/Ol’ Time Moonshine @ Velvet Underground, October 14, 2017
Who knew that Elder had a posse? Their first Toronto appearance pretty much packed the Velvet Underground for a late-night gig on Saturday.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: TRUCKFIGHTERS/Telekinetic Yeti/Electric Magma @ Hard Luck Bar, October 9, 2017
Who wants to spend Thanksgiving with your folks when you can spend it with Truckfighters?
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: PALLBEARER/Kayo Dot/Bask @ Lee’s Palace, August 30, 2017
It was great to see Pallbearer back in Toronto–and as a four-piece this time.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: CULT OF LUNA/Whores @ Mod Club, August 22, 2017
With up to seven people on stage at a time, you could practically still hear every nuance of every instrument–and they had an awesome light show, to boot!
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: NEUROSIS/Converge/Amenra @ Danforth Music Hall, August 2, 2017
Have I already mentioned that the Danforth Music Hall provides a far superior sonic experience to the Opera House? I’ve seen Neurosis at the latter venue a couple times now, but this show blew those other two away.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: WEEDEATER/Black Wizard/Serial Hawk @ Velvet Underground, June 22, 2017
At this point, I’ve probably seen Weedeater more times than Dixie’s got toes, but they keep me coming back for more.
