Been going to Gig,s for years ..my list goes on and on Mattalica (justice for all tour) Guns and Roses when they where the orignal line up, Green Day, Foo fighters, Faith no more, sound garden, and loads more  but never really got in to taking photo's to much was alays moshing. Have up loaded a few of the Photo's i have taken (normally just wack em on face book) none are for Financial gain just for the love of taking shots and the love of great music and my desire to show them hope you enjoy them as much as i enjoyed taking em.
