Here's an up-close of Judas Priest's frontman Rob Halford performance at Omaha's Baxter Arena in Omaha, Nebraska last night, where they delivered an exceptional show.

It was just like the time when Bob Dylan took the morning off from polishing his Nobel Prize and accepted an invitation to go and jam with Showaddywaddy. Remember Showaddywaddy? Ever even heard of Showaddywaddy? Well yes, there’s my point right there. Even if something is stirring from your dim and distant past, I bet you’ve only remembered the long haired frontman called Dave Thingumywotsit. Or maybe something just rang in your head about a connection between one of the band members and Luton Town FC. And while Bob Dylan wrote songs that endured the test of time and became the weather vane of an entire generation, Showaddywaddy sang “Under the Moon of Love,” before disappearing into the murky depths of the cabaret club circuit forever. Probably.
Roll forward a few years and a highly accomplished photographer from the edges of Devon had agreed to meet up with three bumbling fools in a forest, fools who’d arrived from across the border, full of good intentions and ill chosen camera settings. In terms of bringing a wealth of expertise to the party, Nick was doing most of the heavy lifting, while we were just curious as to where he was spending all of his mysteriously moody Dartmoor days. I’d spent a couple of hours on Flickr searching for images from the moor taken by the clever souls whose work I follow, and had mostly ended up adding his clickbait to my favourites folder. A lone hawthorn here, a doom laden moor there, and a fogbound forest lurking in the shadows. He’s a man who knows how to deliver atmosphere in an image. But I was also conscious that he almost never shares the location in his posts. Ok so he did just once, with a high contrast stunner of Haytor. Then again, you can’t really disguise Haytor.
Although it hadn’t been expressly forbidden, I had no intention of spreading the details of Nick’s darkened corners. “Do we have to sign the Official Secrets Act before you show us around?” I asked. “I’ll bring three blindfolds,” came Nick’s reply. The fact that I was driving might make this challenging of course - after all I wouldn’t want to be having any unfortunate episodes with those Dartmoor ponies that wander the roads with little sense of fear. But I think he was joking. We were joined by Carl, another local photographer who I was meeting for the first time. Carl works for a company that provides services to the armed forces, so he’d already signed his vow of silence.
It was a good job I spotted the Iceland flag on the beanie hat worn by the man walking purposely towards Wistman’s Wood as we came away from our first assignment towards the end of the morning. Well if someone’s wearing an Iceland hat and they’re heading towards Wistman’s, it seems pretty likely that they’re part of our community doesn’t it? “I like the hat,” I chirped as he was about to pass us. “Are you Dom?” came the reply. We’d met our Bob Dylan, almost by accident. Apparently he’d left a message on my phone, but there’s no signal at Wistman’s - only mist and gnarly trees. He’d gone out of his way to come and tell us that the afternoon plan we’d hatched had been kiboshed by external events, but while there was still time, he was keen to show us one of his magical forests, where he promised as much fog and filth as we could manage in a single helping. Apparently we wouldn’t have to walk very far either. It had already been a fairly robust trek to Wistman’s and when daylight hours are limited, you don’t want to be spending too much of your precious time yomping about in the mire do you?
“I thought I’d find you here.” An hour later, I’d discovered a black flow in the dark spaces beneath the canopy. Even though this was our first meeting, he’d obviously learned enough about me to know I’d gravitate towards anything that looked like water. Generously, Nick had even shared some of his recently discovered compositions with us, before we’d all disappeared into our own corners of this silent woodland space, occasionally bumping into one another and examining shots on backs of screens. “I’ve found a lovely tree in the clearing!” I called as I saw Lee frowning at his Leica in the distance. “Oh yes, we saw that one too,” said Dave, hidden somewhere not far away. It wasn’t the same tree though - we’d discover that later. “See those trees there?” asked Carl. “They’re the ones I photographed last weekend that I showed you.” They did indeed look very familiar.
The meeting had been all too brief, but Nick’s seemingly unlimited knowledge of the moors had brought some enticing snippets for the following day. And I’d already resolved to return to this place too. In less than an hour I’d barely scratched the surface. So many secrets waiting to be discovered.
I very much doubt that Bob has heard of Showaddywaddy either. I don’t think he listened to any of their long forgotten hits when he was looking for inspiration for “Blood on the Tracks,” and nor is he likely to get excited by the knowledge that the lead guitarist’s son was a professional footballer. But we’d made some more connections with like minded souls, and that had been a good thing. I’ve met quite a lot of you now. In fact at this rate I’m going to be counting the names of those of you I haven’t met in person on the fingers of one hand. I should keep your head down if I were you.
18th October 2019 - Henge frontman/shaman Zpor in all his venusion finery performing at District in Liverpool. These guys are really worth checking out. Think theatrics with a dash of rave, a little prog rock and a dash of glam rock and your still nowhere near... Just brilliant!!

In Februar 2016, I had the opportunity to interview American musician & songwriter Adrian Blew for my music blog. Talking to Adrian, former guitarist of David Bowie and frontman of King Crimson only a month after David Bowie had passed away was a special experience. Took this photograph during Adrian’s concert at the Porgy & Bess Jazz Club in Vienna. Technically, the image is far from perfect, but in spite of the blown highlights, I loved the intensity of Adrian's performance captured in that very moment.
Queen is a British rock band formed in 1970. Frontman Freddie Mercury passed away in 1991 and bassist John Deacon retired in 1997. The other two original members, Roger Taylor (drums) and Brian May (guitar) tour as “Queen +” with Adam Lambert on vocals. Queen was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.

It can happen right on your very doorstep - as I found out recently, as a mural in memory of Scott Hutchinson, the former Frightened Rabbit frontman was senselessly daubed with vile homophobic graffiti.
Last year Glasgow-based artist Alex Coyle unveiled a striking triptych depiction of the singer on a wall in Allison Street to raise awareness of the Tiny Changes organisation (tinychanges.com). The Glasgow band frontman took his own life in 2018 at the age of 36 after a long battle with depression. The charity was established soon after his tragic death with the aim to educate and raise awareness of mental illness in young people.
The street artist included the name of the charity in his design, but the local community was dismayed to find phallic imagery and the phrase ‘Art f**’ on one of the featured three illustrations of Hutchison’s face in vibrant red, blue and green.
This image catches the artist doing some 'running-repairs' to the middle image daubed with said homophobic graffiti - a process that involved painting over the middle face to turn it into a new image.

That's his name, so it is. He's the frontman of one of the best bands around, Hybrasil.
They have revolutionised their set after losing a member i.e. the old set is gone! In it's place is an angular funktastic sound that had some of the audience trying to dislocate every bone in their body.
So do yourself a favour and try and catch them live if you get the chance.
This is them performing at Revolver presents at Radio City, Store St, Dublin 1, 26 April '08.
This photo is dedicated to the amazing frontman of Incubus, Brandon Boyd.
I was listening their songs tonight and his voice just takes my breath away!

IL FRONTMAN DEL GRUPPO MIWA CARTOON COVER BAND.
I Miwa sono cinque supereroi in abito scuro che da anni imperversano lungo tutto lo stivale. La band nasce infatti nel lontano 1999, dalla malsana idea di unire le sigle dei cartoni animati alle ritmiche dello Ska-punk, del Rocksteady, della Disco e di qualsiasi altro genere di musica ballabile, pogabile e rockenrollabile. Da anni sono ospiti fissi al Lucca Comics And Games ed hanno partecipato ad Italia's Got Talent .
