These guys are a blues band hailing from Durham, NC. There guitar player is a friend of mine from Appalachian. He called me up.. actually he facebooked me.. and asked me to take a few pics for their myspace. (We are SOOOO all about social networking! haha) They are wanting to start booking some gigs around the area. We spent a little time in Durham walking around the American Tobacco District. We found a couple of nice spots before being run-off by the rent-a-cops. Apparently it is privately owned and you have to have permission to shoot there... oops! They weren't nasty about it though, and thankfully we were pretty much finished anyway! Here are some of my favorites.
The band: Steve "Jake" Gallagher - Guitar, Tim "The Toolman" Taylor - Lead vocals & Harmonica, George "Geo" Woods - Bass Guitar (or Dad Guitar...if you watch FOTC), Will "Slick Willy-B" Bulk - Guitar, Matt "Big Daddy" Jenkins - Drums/Percussion

awesome work!! these are so much fun. i've thought that would be a great place to shoot. i like the composition of the vertical lucky strike photo a lot better than the wide angle horizontal one. i always enjoy your post processing work--only (small) suggestion is maybe burn the glow/halo happening around pea-coat-guy's head in the first lunch photo.
thanks for the feedback! It is actually an illusion:-) haha. weird how that happens sometimes!
