Ludo @ The Pageant
The Ludo Christmas show at the Pageant has become something of a cult tradition in recent years, with the 2011 edition bringing out what seemed like several metric tones of Santa hats, elf ears, confetti, and of course an appearance by old Saint Nick himself.
Ludo
Ludo are one band that’s basically a little slice of music photographer heaven: an infectiously upbeat band (with equally energetic fans) who mugs from the first song to the last. And of course, the band always allows photographers to shoot their entire set, so if you’re in the photo pit, you’ll have the chance to [...]
Ha Ha Tonka
If Ha Ha Tonka are playing your city, grab your camera and your dancing shoes, because these guys bring a great show to the stage.
Preview: The New Heathers
Here’s a preview from the promo shoot I had with the New Heathers, who are on tour now in support of their new EP – The Fuel, The Fire, The Spark.
Preview: Tim Convy of Ludo
Just a quick preview from Ludo’s show at the Pageant last night, with Tim Convy mugging for the audience. Tim is one of the nicest guys in the business, lays down a mean Moog line, and is always fun to photograph.
Ludo @ the Pageant — 2008.03.02
It’s been months since Ludo blasted the Pageant with confetti, flying poinsettias, and bombastic pop, but our ears have been ringing with melodic power chords ever since. Fresh off their A Very Ludo Chrismas tour, the St. Louis-natives bounced back into town for the release of their 2008, major-label debut, You’re Awful, I Love You [...]
Quietdrive @ the Pageant — 20077.12.27
Warding off the cold, Quietdrive laid down a tight, half-hour set that had the 2200 bodies in the Pageant bouncing to the band’s bright pop punk melodies in the perfect warm-up to A Very Ludo Christmas 2007.
The Hush Sound @ the Pageant — 2007.12.27
If it weren’t for their short set, and early start time, one might think The Hush Sound were headlining at the Pageant December 27. Opening for Ludo in a sold out event, The Hush Sound packed the house with a legion of their own dedicated fans, who sang along with every note of the youthful [...]
Ludo @ the Pageant — 2007.12.27
Santa is on stage playing an electric guitar, there’s confetti stuck to my lens hood, Andrew Volpe is leading the crowd through a chorus of rocked out power pop, and I’m trying to figure out if the last song was about pterodactyls. That’s right, kids: Ludo is in town.
