few more shots from the MOJOs , seasick steve , joe elliot & ian hunter and the legend johnny marr .

well ive had a few months of due to personal circumstances,life gets out of control every now and then , but , had a great start back covering the MOJO awards in London , great day made even better by the people who i got to meet and photograph , shooting stars like Yoko Ono , yes Yoko Ono!! Chris Rea , Mark Ronson & Paul Weller to name a few , i had a top time , made even better from my client on the quality of my images ...

few shots from the extreme gig on sunday night .

well i interviewed and photographed Justin Hawkins last night , strange 20 mins , he seemed quite quiet , everything was answered but in a round about way , although the eurovision question didn't go down very well , Hotleg themselves are just like marmite , you will love or hate them , Extreme showed just what we have missed for so long , great first half of the show , strangely pear shaped after that untill last 2 songs , for me Gary Cherone stole the show , what a front man , IL hopefully have some shots tomorrow night .....

Great day yesterday , started shoot at 1 from the brides house , arrived at venue and the weather took a turn for the worse , got the group shots outside but had to quickly get the hotel staff to strip down the ceremony room to continue the shoot inside , so dissapointed with the weather felt like minus 10 , going through the shots whilst batterries get a recharge for tonights Hotleg & Extreme shoot , interviewing Justin at 6-30 , rock and roll.........

busy few days , shot Opeth on Wednesday night , nice evening of black doom metal , Saturday im photographing a wedding , Sean & Rachel just ouitside Oxford at a very nice golf/spa resort , then on my return sunday its straight to the academy in Birmingham for a meet up with my favourite camp rock star , Justin Hawkins ( ex the Darkness ) who now has a new band called Hotleg , looking forward to seeing him again , and then the headlinners of the evening are Extreme , the massive rock band from the 90s , back on a reunion tour , very busy but should be fun , il get some opeth shots up when ive got a mo ........

Met up with "the stone gods" again on Wednesday night , great to see them again, they even remembered that last time we met i had my son Bradley with me , they have come along way since "the darknes"and the exit of Justin , their new classic rock style is awesome , and with Ritchie heading things up from the front you cant go wrong , they are all top blokes , i could do with more than 20 mins with them , time goes so quick , rock3`s interviewer Mel did a great job and kept the lads in order , Headlinners Airbourne were amazing , just like AC/DC with Bon Scott , pure 100 % rock and roll , Joel the lead singer introduced himself backstage , happy chap , but then again you would be fronting the new kings of rock and roll and with all the awards their getting .
Thats my boy !
