I shot over 50 shows, probably a hundred performances in 2009. Here is a small sampling of concert photography from the past year, mostly from Cain’s Ballroom. I left out previously seen material such as SXSW, Dfest, Norman Music Fest, and concerts I’ve already covered. Not many local shows here either. Don’t hate me, it took long enough to put this together. SEE A SLIDESHOW OF THESE AND MORE >
AFI Lights above. The Misfits show (below) was THE loudest concert of the year. Ouchy.


Below we have 2 of my favorite guys named Hank III. On the left is Hank Williams III, and on the right Hank Hanewinkel III of local band Red Alert.


GWAR

I’ve taken a version of this shot of Taylor Hanson about 15 times…just a nice composition every time.



Raechel Brown of Crocodile.

I think this is the saxophonist for Umphreys’ McGhee

CCR, Cross Canadian Ragweed, that is.


Alan Jackson stops in at the BOK Center, shot for the Tulsa World.

Brand New

David Crowder’s afro silhouette.

The Decemberists.

Though i’m not a huge fan of their music, AFI had one of the best light shows of the year, and lots of energy on stage.




These are Jugalos.

Ghostland Observatory whips the crowd into a frenzy every time they come to town.


Left, dude from Hurt, Right bassist for Hot Club of Cowtown. No rhyme or reason here.

Left Thurston Moore’s psychadelic silhouette, right Mars Volta


Thurston Moore again

Hurt dude again.

Below is supergroup Tinted Windows first public show.

The Crystal Method


Andrew Bird wasn’t very photogenic – he rarely opens his eyes and looks up – but it was a sweet sweet show.

Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth – one last time, and Citizen Cope on the right.

Hometown hero and American Idol winner David Cook below.
