Pete Wentz - Fall Out Boy - San Francisco, April 4, 2005

Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy

The second time I shot Fall Out Boy, this was taken inside a very neat venue in San Francisco, at Van Ness and California? I don’t remember exactly, but it was a very well attended show.  I actually had interviewed the band on their tour bus for my former music zine, modzine.com (not mine anymore), back in 2004..  I had an inkling back then the band was going to make it big.  Had Pete’s contact info written down on a post-it note which had fallen out of my camera bag, as well.  Haha.

Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols

Johnny Rotten of The Sex Pistols…  This was shot on Sept 6th, 2003 at The Greek Theatre Los Angeles, during their rather short lived reunion tour.  They aimed to play 3 tour dates, but had only fulfilled 2.  So, this is a shot from their last show to date.  This was shot on Ilford Delta ISO 3200 speed film, and developed by The Dark Room, Northridge, CA.  Have a few hundred photos from this show.  The Drop Kick Murphy’s opened for them.

“Why Lie - I want beer” - Homeless Man San Francisco 2005 Candid

why lie , I want beer.

“Why Lie, I want beer.” 2005 - Christmas Time.  San Francisco, CA EOS 20D.  This variation of signage is actually relatively common in SF.  Take a look at the affluent couple that had just passed the beer seeking gentleman by.  My eye then goes to the gentleman in the red sweater behind.   [Candid.]

Desert Fox (or Coyote? ) You tell me!

Joshua Tree National Park, 2005.  Honestly do not recall if this is a fox or coyote.  A google images search returned two similar looking animals. 

:-)   I Was about 7 feet away.  [EDIT: Thanks to @GuitarDragon on Twitter, this beautiful creature is indeed a coyote.]  Thanks!

Abandoned Whore Houses - Rhyolite, NV

 
abandoned whore houses

These abandoned whore houses were once part of the goings on, in a now ghost town which was once mined for the mineral Rhyolite.  Aptly named, Rhyolite, NV basically went bust several years later, and is just past the California Nevada border once you leave Death Valley National Park.  Shot with 20D.  Film versions in medium format are somewhere in my neg archives…
