OT: Attention all you rock & rollers!
Just a heads-up that tonight legendary Colorado concert promoter Barry Fey is doing a signing of his new book, "Backstage Past," (I love that title!) in Colorado Springs, at Stargazers Theatre on Pikes Peak Ave. between Circle and Union (the old Cinema 150, where I first saw many a classic rock movie). As part of the festivities, local classic rock band 6035 will perform AND (drum roll please...) I will be running a slide show of images from my many years of concert photography on the big screen. Here's your chance to see the largest collection of my concert photo archives ever displayed in one place. Hope to see some of my local RMNP pals tonight! The gig is free and you can find more info here: http://www.stargazerstheatre.com/december-15th-barry-fey-book-signing.html

Awesome shot, Todd! I will go so far as to say that they are playing Xanadu!

All hail Geddy and Alex!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Sure wish they would go back to concept albums!)

ROCK! Wish I could make it to the signing & slideshow but it's been cool seeing the examples you've posted here and on Facebook of the shows you were able to photograph. Must have been an awesome experience to shoot the likes of Rush, Queen, Bowie, Journey and more. Your concert photo collection is almost as jealousy-inducing as your landscape photos Todd! :cool:

At this time I feel the need to quote the immortal words of David Bowie..."Ooooooo Look out, you Rock 'n' Rollers...."
Sounds like a great time and I could listen to Barry tell stories forever. Sorry I couldn't make it.
