Rush - LG Arena, Birmingham, May 22, 2011 : Photographing Rush at the LG Arena in Birmingham was just the best thing ever. They've been my favourite band since I was a teenager. Amazing lighting was a gift but we weren't allowed to step "over the red line" on the floor, which meant staying pretty much stock still and not being able to get in front of Neil's drum kit for a decent view of him. A small price to pay and thanks so much to Jon and Duff at Duff Press for all that they arranged tonight - especially the meet and greet with Alex and Geddy. Just fabulous. 

By the way, the first photo here is straight from my iPhone . . . I was Facebook blogging during the gig. It's one of my favourite images of the night.

Joanne Shaw Taylor - Robin 2, Bilston, May 17, 2011 : Joanne Shaw Taylor at the Robin 2, Bilston, Wolverhampton, on her Diamonds In The Dirt tour. A great guitarist and a bloody good singer too. Joanne has it all - thoroughly recommended. Towards the end she duetted with guitarist Virgil from Virgil and the Accelerators.

Paul Rodgers, Birmingham NIA, April 28, 2011 : Fabulous concert by Paul Rodgers, largely drawn from his Free and Bad Company back catalogue. He's still got the most amazing voice. The band included ex-Heart guitarist Howard Leese and Black Country (Communion) boy Jason Bonham.
