When they told me we were taking a plane to Virginia, I didn't realize they meant a sporty van with wings... it was the first time my on-flight meal was sushi.

Sometimes all the pieces fit together and you get A+ lighting. I'll always like this Virginia show for the Sunset that day. I like the shots that make you feel like you're seeing Joan from the first row. These are two of them.

Click to enlarge Late 1990's I like this because Joan only takes her guitar off for one or two songs in the middle of the set - she "seems" to be in a pensive mood - although I don't think there is such a mood in "I Wanna Be Your Dog." Shows how sometimes photos aren't always what they seem to be.

Joan without the Blackhearts, a first for me. A stripped down and grittier sound. I shot this time exposure just for that vibe.

A blonde Joan... I'm still amazed how she re-invents and changes her look. I honestly believe there is no planning involved, she just gets up and says, "I feel like a blonde today."
