Interview with Steve 'Zetro' Souza

I have never really had a favorite band. Instead I have always listened to many bands at the same time. There has been bands that have had bigger impact to me than others. Exodus is one of those bands and my favorite Excodus albums are

• Pleasures of the Flesh (1987)
• Fabulous Disaster (1989)
• Impact Is Imminent (1990)

Steve 'Zetro' Souza wrote lyrics and sang on those albums and I got an opportunity to interview him for Screamer Magazine. Check out the interview on Steve's history and his new band, Hatriot!

A book!

Last year I challenged myself to select the most meaningful photo for each week and collect them. Well, here's the beginning of that collection. I also turned the project into a book. Go ahead and order a copy for yourself through Blurb.

Accept at The Regency Balroom, San Francisco

Accept is one of the bands I have been a huge fan since the 80's. I never really even thought it was possible to see them live, but the guys were on tour with Kreator and Swallow the Sun and stopped in San Francisco on Sept 25th. Here's a slideshow from the gig for you all.

Flying musicians

I just happened to snap a series of shots of "Like Moths to Flames" where the basist, Aaron Evans and guitarist, Eli Ford are floating in mid-air. And I just had to share ;)
