Wow!!! Blog #300! I guess I've been doing this for a while!
I really enjoy sharing my work with everyone. It is a passion. I love to photograph racing and music. I have been doing it since 1971.
Indy Car weekend at Road America was 3 full days of fun, sun and photos.
This blog is about Friday 6-22-2018 and I will do blogs coming up of Saturday and Sunday.
The Final Inspection Show 105.7FM that I work with, taped the radio show on Friday.
We interviewed Mario Andretti, Matt Villander, fresh from his LeMans win, Graham Rahal and the top engineer of Bridgestone Racing Tires.
My heart goes out to Mario Andretti who lost his wife, Dee Ann, a week later. They were married for 57 years!
Enjoy a look at some legends and some great cars on a cool, cloudy Friday at Road America.
Thanks,

I'm getting ready for Indy Cars at Road America on June 22, 23 and 24. So I'm writing this blog a little early because I'll be busy!! It's actually Tuesday June 19th as I do this.
I found some photos of my old friend, Uncle Vinty.
He was like no other musician as you will see. He was unique and loved by everyone because of his costumes and great show. I actually think those are my snow ski goggles he has on! No wonder I don't have them anymore!
Not sure, but I think this is from 1979 at the Blue River Cafe.
Enjoy some photos of my buddy.
Thanks,

In 1987, I photographed Bon Jovi at Alpine Valley Music Theater for the first time. Hopefully, you saw my blog a few weeks ago of their show at the Bradley Center. It was the last rock show ever at the Bradley Center here in Milwaukee.
In 1987, hair was big and stadiums rocked. Maybe leather pants were in style too! I remember I had a gray pair about that time!
The guys were so very nice that day in 1987 with some Make a Wish Foundation kids before the show. It was so cool to see Jon and Tico being soooo nice them.
Enjoy a look back at 1987 when you were how old?!
Thanks,
