Well folks after a seven year
absence from the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Show, I made my return. This was the
15-year the show had been going on. This time around I was asked to be the
official car show photographer for the event!
Carolyn, and I packed our bags then
hit the road. But things aren’t quite the same as they used to be, I’m starting
to feel old now. When I first went I was in my late 20’s, I could stay up all
night long till dawn even, now I’m 40, and by 1am that is it, I am done. Aching
knees and feet didn’t stop me from having fun though. It just stopped me from
having fun till the wee hours of the night. The musical highlights of the
weekend in Vegas were the Ventures and Si Cranstoun. Yes, the original Ventures
played Vegas along with Duane Eddy. They may be older men now, but they sound
exactly the same as they did during the 1960’s. And lastly Si Cranstoun and his
band all the way from England. Si has a Jackie Wilson styled R&B sound that
makes it impossible for you to stand still! Check out his music, this man has
talent!
Aha! Long exposure on the cars in the parking lot. I was staring at these wondering how you got such rich smoothness in the lighting. Forgive the geekspeak...let me just say your photography does justice to some mighty beautiful cars. Love the band shots too.
