AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: WINDHAND/Satan’s Satyrs @ Horseshoe Tavern, November 5, 2018
Windhand and Satan’s Satyrs are two of Virginia’s finest exports, and I definitely don’t mind seeing them on the same stage for the second time.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: CLUTCH @ Rebel, October 23, 2018

AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: WITCH MOUNTAIN, Volur, Smoulder @ The Garrison, August 4, 2018
It’s nice to see a bill where all the bands are complementary, but not identical–three different shades of doom metal were on display last night.
AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: SLEEP @ Danforth Music Hall, July 30, 2018
Man, this was the fifth time I’ve seen Sleep since 2010…and the first time they played any new material.
