Jenny and Johnny 6/11/11

 i saw jenny and johnny for the first time this year at coachella- so wonderful. i've loved both of them as individual artists for quite some time, and their cd 'i'm having fun now' is nothing short of magical. i'm so glad i got the chance to see them again, this time at the Music Box in LA. this was the first time i got to play with my new camera at a concert, and it was def more difficult than i thought it would be- however i think that these shots turned out pretty well? enjoy!

Concert for Equality 7/31/10

Recently, Fremont- a small town right outside Omaha, passed an immigration law similar to Arizona's horrendous excuse at protecting US citizen rights. This move was fairly under-the-radar for a lot of us (it IS Fremont, after all) until Conor Oberst drew a lot of attention to it by putting together the all-day Concert for Equality. All of the proceeds went to the ACLU, who filed a lawsuit against Fremont. The concert itself was amazing- I got there in time to see five acts and hear stories from ACLU representatives and members of our Latino community in between sets. It was a wonderful day, and the feeling of unity and love of music all around was infectious.

Ingrid Michaelson 7/9/10

Aside from fashion I'm hoping to post a lot of concert pictures on this blog. Last week I had the pleasure of seeing Ingrid Michaelson for the third time...she is as crazy and wonderful as ever. The Slowdown was PACKED and since we had already seen her twice from the front row, we decided to take it easy and relax aways back. Which made for lovely concert-going, but slightly shitty pictures. My apologies.

Jason Reeves...essentially a Jason Mraz look/sound alike. Although the song 'Wishing Weed' definitely had its merits.

"I should tell you that you were my first love" - instructed heart choreography during "The Hat". Although some people's hearts looked more like goggles, it was still adorbs.

"You and I"- Ingrid and the whole gang.

I love the Slowdownnnnn.
