In Studio w/ Tom Lounges & Nomad Planets

Wes and I had the privilege to photograph an in studio interview and performance! It was with the Nomad Planets on Tom Lounges Midwest Beat radio show on Lakeshore Public Radio (89.1 FM) here in NW Indiana.. Our Nomad friends asked us to come along and take some photos for prosperity...  It was pretty cool to see how something like this goes in a radio studio. Wes had photographed in a studio before, but this was a first for me. It certainly is a lot of equipment in a small room... Nothing like WKRP, lol (you younger readers might have to look that up)..

We arrived early and took some photos of the guys warming up as well. It was an acoustic performance so all of the members were not there. Which was not a bad thing, considering the space (not that they weren't missed). The interviewees were Mark Mybeck, John Carpenter, and Phil Rapchak. Missing were Chris Ussery and Terry Boylan.. 

There was an issue with the cd, but everyone worked right through it until it got straightened out. I think we just got to hear an extra live song or two.. oh darn. 

***If you didn't have a chance to listen, and would like to, there will be a re-broadcast Friday night, February 2nd, at 11pm...   

Tom Lounges also did some Facebook live video you can look for..

Nomad Planets w/ Frank & Dave at Wildrose Brewing

The plan on Friday night was to make more than one stop for some more birthday celebrating, but we decided to take it easy and stay close to home. And you can't go wrong when you do that with Nomad Planets! I LOVE to photograph these fine gents. The way they interact with each other and have fun is just awesome to watch and makes for some great photos...

 On this night, fellow local musicians Frank & Dave opened for them. Frank is with the band I'm With Frank, and Dave is with the band Dave & Dave. The two best friends sometimes do acoustic shows together. Franks wife Kim (also in I'm With Frank) joined in for a few tunes..

While I'm not a beer drinker, Wildrose is one of my favorite places to go see local music. The food is fantastic, and the setting is just right, nice and comfy. It certainly feels like my "home bar"..
