Bruce Springsteen Feb 1 , 2023
Tampa .
This is the moment right before Bruce hit the stage with the E Street Band for the first time in 6 yrs . Eyes closed , getting psyched up to share his gospel of music ! What a moment !

1/2) Phoebe Bridgers connection with her fans reminded me yet again of how important music is to people .
There was so many emotions being shared . Screams of joy and tears of sadness hanging on every word . Truly intense .
Here we go ! A Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band tour , are you kidding me ?? So happy to collaborate with Bruce on this photograph - and it wasn’t too bad getting to ride shotgun around Asbury Park with him in his 69 Camaro either !
THIS guy walks into the gallery yesterday and heads right for the guitars ! Bruce hadn't been in Transparent Gallery for a while and was genuinely interested in seeing the new images from the Unseen collection . Always a good hang in Asbury Park !

Joni Mitchell played her first full set concert in two decades last night with a surprise headlining set at Newport Folk Fest ! Her last appearance at Newport was 53 years ago . This time she was backed by Brandi Carlile + a bunch of other friends for an incredible 13 song set !
A moment with Shane Hawkins and the many drum kits ready to be swapped in and out at Wembley .
Honored to be photographing again today at the legendary Forum In honor of Taylor Hawkins , and to see Shane crush it again .

Congratulations to Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band for wrapping up an incredible 28 show tour of the United States !! I’m working on narrowing down my selects from this leg of the tour , and this photo of Bruce stands out to me as one that is incredibly soulful .
1/2) Bruce Springsteen’s album “Letter to You” was released 3 years ago today ! I captured this photo of Bruce in Central Park NYC during a blizzard while he was in town performing his run of Broadway shows in 2018 . We had arranged to meet in Central Park for some photos …
I’ll be posting a collection of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band images throughout the week to celebrate the kickoff of their new tour ! This portrait is from the first time I did a portrait of Bruce and photographed a full band rehearsal at Fort Monmouth in NJ , 1999 .
I hear the sound of your guitar !! What do you think will be the first song on the new Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band tour kicking off tomorrow ?
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band Philly 2023 .
After an illness paused the tour I wasn't sure how the energy might be at the first show back . Bruce gathered the Band and was bursting with excitement that truly energized the pre show circle .
David Lindley RIP
If ya know , ya know .
Jackson Browne knew . So did Bonnie Raitt , Curtis Mayfield , Dolly Parton , Ben Harper , Bruce Springsteen , zevon and so many others . It was a pleasure to experience your art .

31 years ago this week , I met and photographed Eddie Vedder / Pearl Jam for the first time at Lollapalooza in NJ with my Rolliflex twin lens camera , my first medium format (which I still have and use today) .

1/2) 29 years ago today , Blind Melon played Woodstock ‘94 in NY . The band asked me if I wanted to play harmonica on their song Change during their set . I figured there weren't too many opportunities to play Woodstock …
RIP Jimmy Buffett 💙
Jimmy wandered backstage near my portrait spot at Bonnaroo and was kind enough to sit for portrait . Many people gathered around so we invited them to join him - he loved it and so did we ! Nothing like spontaneity and going with the flow ! What a memory !
Celebrating 50 years of Bruce Springsteen and Columbia Records . Honored to have been part of the story with several album covers along the way . Let’s keep it going !
Pearl Jam !!! Feb. 6th 2024
Shot this last week in Seattle !
What an incredible new record . I've had the pleasure of blasting it for the last few weeks .
The band is stoked on it too ! Sure was fun to share the excitement with them .

Another incredibly moving round of Bruce on Broadway is just what I needed . Some new observations and insights from one of the worlds best storytellers . I hope you got to sit in that room with him , laughing and crying . Thanks Bruce and Patti .

We said goodbye to the Big Man 12 years ago , but somehow it still feels like yesterday .

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band . Ireland 2023 .
Such a magical trip . Ireland really gives back . The band was 🔥 . The Guiness was flowing & this country is beautiful - Thanks to some friends for the tips while we were there .
Bruce Springsteen + the E Street Band released The Rising 20 years ago today ! This album is extra special because it was my first album cover for the E Street Band , and what an incredible record too ! I was very surprised with the abstract image choice until I heard the songs .
Im going to post some of my photographs of musicians laughing . These make me feel good , maybe they will do the same for you , even for a little bit. Here is Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder in Barcelona . Pass em on !

Reminiscing about Adam Yauch . Went through the archives and found a few photos of Adam and the Beastie Boys that I’ve never shared before . I have been inspired by their kindness and humor and how they have always stood up for what they believe in ! We miss you Adam .
1/3) I’m not always happy when social media finds its way to my private photo sessions , but that is the way of the world now . With all the buzz from yesterday’s photoshoot with
@springsteen
, I want to take a moment to highlight the Asbury Park African-American Music Project…
Bruce Springsteen Rolling Stone Magazine . Colts Neck Aug 4th . 2020 .
In keeping with 2020 a HUGE storm and a tornado blew into NJ on our shoot day and i thought we were screwed , but optimism won out and the skies parted later in the day and we had a great shoot .
So cool to see my Bob Dylan portrait in the press for his new book The Philosophy of Modern Song . Truly a highlight to have photographed and spent time with him .
Hard to believe that Bruce Springsteen released Western Stars 4 years ago ! Here’s a collection of my photos used on the release . Photographed in Joshua Tree CA , 2019 .
I love this photo I captured of
@eddievedder
jumping at Wrigley . We were filming the Let’s Play Two film and the band was firing on all cylinders ! Watch the vid to find our how I captured one of my favorite live concert photos + check out our website for more Pearl Jam photos .
Bruce greeted and placed his hand on every band members shoulder as they passed him up the stairs and onto the stage .
Then they just tore the house down ! It WAS PHILLY afterall !

I captured this moment 5 years ago today while filming Lets Play Two at Wrigley Field ! Gonna try for another in September on the beach in Asbury Park !
Bill Walton counting the
