Gavin Rossdale
Chicago
07/13/08
_____________


I was given the amazing opportunity to photograph former Bush frontman, Gavin Rossdale, at his solo show in Chicago Sunday evening. I was extremely excited as soon as I heard the first guitar riff to "Everything Zen." The one crummy thing was that all the fun stuff to photograph came later on in the show - kneeling in front of the video camera to play a guitar solo, jumping around on stage, etc.

All in all though, I am thrilled to have gotten to take these pictures - the music he helped write was a part of my early teenage life, and I never got the opportunity to see him perform live until Sunday.
