There’s a reason I don’t usually shoot flowers. It’s because every time I do, the pictures suck. Thus, I’ve managed to make it through more than a year of blogging, and this is the first flower shot I’ve posted. My friend, Carl Moser, would think these are cool, and the picture doesn’t suck, so voilà....
I never cease to be amazed at what I don’t know. At four o’clock on Friday afternoon, I discovered that not only is there a Rock Camp (à la School of Rock) in Hickory this week, but their kick out the jams showcase concert was scheduled to start at 6:30 PM. As Hickory’s only legitimate...
Today’s shot is from a visit to the Nashville home of Billy and Sandy Crain last November. This picture was inspired by a photo of James Taylor in a barn, with tools hanging in the background. It was taken by the great photographer, Norman Seef, in the early 1970s. I think I remember it from...

Henry Paul and the members of BlackHawk are seen here waiving goodby to the large and enthusiastic crowd at the end of a Fourth of July performance in Rich Hill, Missouri. A street banner said Rich Hill is famous for its Fourth, and I can see why. The town’s population increases tenfold for the Independence...
The entire Hart family got a lesson in rock ‘n roll from the Outlaws on Saturday night. Scroll down to see more shots from the Shed. Billy Crain was in fine form. Some of the fans were easy on the eyes. Why the Outlaws always sound great. Courtesy of Donnie Dawg. Chris Anderson singing Prisoner....
In a post last week, I said I considered myself an expert on the subject of three guitar onslaughts. This is why. If you like your rock ‘n roll with savory guitars (and sweet harmonies), the Outlaws are hard to beat. In the southern fried heat of a July evening in Tennessee, the Outlaws delivered...
