bayside (@baysideband). santa barbara, ca. 1DSMKII.
a few years ago, as i was getting to know the bayside dudes, they were on tour thru california. i drove myself to 4 or 5 shows and was fortunate enough to get a little AA pass to shoot and hang. the velvet jones is one of the only clubs left in santa barbara that still has punk shows. things got rowdy real quick, so sadly, me and my camera had to head for higher ground.
i don’t normally shoot much with my fisheye, but this show had such an “old school” feel going on that it felt fitting.
do you listen to bayside? how many times you gonna make me tell you?

mark saw me in the pit and said “hi” while playing their first song. haha.
after the show he emailed me and apologized for us not “hanging out” after. so i got to go and shoot their final show of that tour two nights later.

my recent bud, performing at the glasshouse this past summer. again, crazy that a band that’s become easily one of my all time favorites is now a friend of mine. i’m a lucky guy.

1DSMKII. Hollywood, CA & Woodstock, NY. Chris Guglielmo of Bayside.
over the last few years i’ve had the chance to hang with chris. young dude. amazing drummer. super fun and chill to be around. chris was nice enough to drive me from woodstock new york, back to manhattan while they were recording ‘killing time.’
here are a few shots of the dude.
