Today I photographed the last two WGBH Christmas Celtic Sojourns of 2019. The shows were incredible. I have worked with Brian Donovan of WGBH’s A Celtic Sojourn a few times over the years, covering his radio show and the St. Patrick’s Day shows, today was my first time photographing the Christmas performances. Great job by all.

I took in some of the Claflin Hill Symphony Orchestra and Greater Milford’s Community Chorus rehearsal this evening. They sounded incredible. My wife is in the chorus, I will photograph the Saturday night the 7th performance at Milford Town Hall. They are also playing Friday night the 6th at Stadium Theater in Woonsocket, RI. Next weekend the chorus will be playing Milford Town Hall without the orchestra. You can check out the details for all the shows below.

Today was the 2019 Local Music Awards, I have lost count how many I have been to, 7, 8. The local music community has been a big part of my life, it is filled with incredibly talented people. This year my son Dan performed. All the acts were collaborations, and Dan did a duet with Kendo. When I started taking photos of this event, Dan was 11, and now he is on the stage holding his own some impressive acts. I am so grateful for how welcoming this community is to him. He has learned so much and made great friends, thanks to Kendo for playing with him, it was awesome. Video below.

I am lucky to have photographed many bands; this is my second time taking photos of Toad the Wet Sprocket, and they are on a different level of excitement for me. They are about my age, still playing after 30 years, sound great, and are the soundtrack to my late teens/early adulthood. This show was special because my wife and I got to meet them, I have had chances to meet them in the past, but it just never worked out. Tonight we got the VIP package, so we got to get a photo with and talk briefly with Glen, Dean, and Todd (Sadly no Randy on this tour). Glenn even held a photo I took of the band a few years back. Then the three of them played some songs acoustically for a small crowd. It was a perfect night for a show in a park. After a couple of songs, I put the camera back in the bag and just enjoyed it. There was an incredible opening act named Terra Lightfoot – highly recommend checking her out too.

the dailypic 3337 yr10 050 The 2018 LMAs
I have been taking photos of the MyFM Local Music Awards for many years, not even sure how many off the top of my head. This year due to many circumstances it was later in the year, I kind of figured it was not happening to be honest. And then it did… yesterday, and it was glorious. These two above are the ringleaders of the whole gig, and they also happen to be two of my favorite people on the planet. Ray and Molly Auger put on an award show once that reminds us how fun it is to be part of this music scene. Great people, entertaining other great people with so much talent it is ridiculous. The whole event was a highlight, but I am allowed to have some favorites right? Kelley and Ed, one play Keys the other Drums, together they did an instrumental version, (that ended up having vocals by the whole audience), of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody, it was crazy good. There was pop, rock, country, yacht rock, a Who cover band that reminded me I do not listen to enough Who, humor, awards and plenty to drink for those who needed it. Thank you to Ray and Molly for putting this on over and over, and for all the others who help, Liz’s Diamond for hosting and Milford TV for recording the thing. If you missed it all, well you missed it. Don’t miss the next one.
