Their continued … Continue reading The Darkness with Mark Daly and the Ravens at the NorVa, in Norfolk, Virginia, September 5th, 2025

By Glenn Woodell I’ve covered a wide variety of shows but Samatha Fish’s show was definitely one of the best. I missed her the last two times she came through the area and made it a priority to catch her this time. From the moment she walked into the stage lights with her blazing red jump suit she commanded the attention of the entire venue. … Continue reading Samantha Fish at Elevation 27 in Virginia Beach, Virginia November 15, 2024

by Glenn Woodell I’ve covered Godsmack in the past but this was surely the best show I’ve seen, as they played to a nearly packed amphitheater despite the July heat and humidity so typical of the southeast coast this time of year.

Tears for Fears with Cold War Kids at Virginia Beach Amphitheater, Virginia Beach, Virginia, July 7, 2023

By Glenn Woodell As a photographer, I’ve taught myself to always bring all my gear and be prepared for everything. I broke that mantra for this show and paid the price. I usually only shoot shows where I can shoot from the photo pit and tend to avoid those where the photographers are given little chance of creativity by being shoved back to the sound … Continue reading Tears for Fears with Cold War Kids at Virginia Beach Amphitheater, Virginia Beach, Virginia, July 7, 2023

by Glenn Woodell There are so many bands who were itching to get back to playing live after the lockdowns of the last couple of years and this trio of 80’s block busters was no exception.
