Appetite For Destruction

2010-08-03T20:56:00.021-04:00

I finally got to see Appetite For Destruction, the ultimate Guns N’ Roses tribute band. Let me tell you, it was worth the wait.Caught them at BB King Blues Club, last month. They were freakin' awesome!!! The lead singer, Chad Atkins, looks and sounds just like Axl Rose. I was amazed!The crowd was a little too bridge and tunnel for my liking. However, they were energized and fun to be around.Meet

Frederick Rock School Presents: A Tribute to AC/DC!

2010-06-07T21:42:00.015-04:00

In May, a friend of mine sent me this FaceBook event invite to the Frederick Rock School Presents: A Tribute to AC/DC!, in Frederick, MD. I thought, why is he sending this to me? I don't even live in Maryland. And then I thought, is he playing in some Rock School, at his age? What a loser!He tells me his son, Dennis is the one that will be playing for the Frederick Rock School, with his band

Sleeping On The Subway

2010-03-17T09:15:00.002-04:00

Whenever I'm asked about my daily commute to work, I always tell people I don't mind it at all. Most days it takes about 40 minutes to get into the city. During that time I can watch a movie on my iPod or sleep. Most people find that last part a bit disturbing. I usually hear "Sleep? On the subway?" "I could never fall asleep on the train. I'd be too afraid"Well, maybe you should be afraid. Not

Snowlapalooza NYC 2010 Tour

2010-02-27T20:06:00.008-05:00

I believe there no better place than NYC when it snows. Here are some shots I took yesterday, during the Snowlapalooza NYC 2010 Tour.

Rehoboth Beach, Snow?

2010-02-18T08:59:00.005-05:00

What better place to live than somewhere, where it's warm all year round? I understand it's not Florida, but when I bought a home in Rehoboth Beach Delaware, I was thinking mild winters. Since, my residence change, I have seen three snow storms, winds you wouldn't believe and biting cold temperatures. Am I complaining? No way! I love it!Coming from The Big Apple I'm used to seeing snow, and lots

How Do You Look At Things?

2010-02-17T10:27:00.002-05:00

Sometimes the things we look at everyday, and find drab, boring or even the mundane...You might find a hidden beauty, if you know how to look at it.This is how I see the NYC subway, while I wait for the train.

Let It Snow

2010-02-09T08:05:00.003-05:00

It looks like the greater New York City area is in for a much needed snow storm, this Wednesday. Strangely enough, we seemed to have missed the 2 - 3 feet of snow that was dumped on the whole Northeast region, Saturday. I can tell you, in Queens, I couldn't even tell if it snowed.As much as I love the snow and look forward to this storm, I hope it doesn't ruin my weekend plans ;-) However, it

Does anyone remember these thing? For the life of me, I can't remember the last time I use one. Anyone?

Snow Day?

2010-02-03T11:15:00.002-05:00

I love the seasons, all of them. I love that I live in a seasonal location. Winter is, by far, one of my favorite seasons. I don't understand when people complain about the snow or the mess it makes; I think it's beautiful and can't get enough of it. If it's winter, it should be cold (very cold) and it should snow, often! How else can you truly miss the warmer seasons and appreciate them?NYC got

Inspiration

2010-02-02T23:58:00.004-05:00

If you're like me, sometimes you find it hard to get inspired. Spending most of my time in NYC, you'd think I'd be inspired constantly. To tell you the truth, sometimes I find it hard to take my camera out of my bag.That is the biggest problem! It's in my bag! I need to keep my camera in my hand and ready to use. Even if I'm not inspired to shoot, I never know what I may discover when I shoot
