I went to Los Angeles to give a talk at the Annenberg Space for Photography as part of the ‘Who Shot Rock & Roll’ exhibit and was the guest of honor at a private party, then met up with Steven Tyler before heading back home for more excitement… from the final night at legendary Kenny’s Castaways, to seeing Jacob Dylan at the former site of CBGB – and at long last I got to see ‘The French Elvis’ Johnny Hallyday… read more →

What a great few months, with Jesse Malin, Foxboro Hot Tubs, Courtney Love, Rolling Stones, Green Day, Lady Gaga and more!

I was very busy in the Fall of 2005 promoting my new book “John Lennon, The New York Years” and didn’t have time to update my webpages. Here are some of the photos I’ve made in the last few months.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Annual Induction Dinner – Once again the evening at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel was a great deal of fun for the honored inductees, their friends and families and many of their lawyers and managers  

The Rolling Stones landed in New York to announce a new world tour. Flying in on a blimp with the Stones logo painted on it, they said they were looking forward to playing three types of shows: in stadiums, arenas, and clubs. They all looked in fine form, except Charlie, who looked a little airsick from the blimp ride.
