September 14, 2022 - I got to take a break from an ongoing family issue and catch up with Tyler and Josh for The Icy Tour at the Toyota Center. The snow in a South Texas September was a nice break and the show was amazing! This is one of those tours that as a photographer you wish you could photograph the entire show! Or even better cover a couple shows! We got shuttled to stage right so the crew could set up a landing area for Tyler to fling himself off the stage, who knows maybe he just landed on his feet? Only to pop back up on stage and continue on, I know I wasn't the only one glad to be there, the young ladies I included got in line on Friday for the Wednesday's show, thats cool!

Jeff "Skunk" Baxter Goes Rockin at Troubadour
|
August 2, 2022---You know the old cliche about how older folks just sit around in their rocking chairs? Well, that may be partially true. Notice I said "partially', and that is clearly true in the case of Jeff "Skunk" Baxter. Yes, he does perform, sitting in an ergonomic rocking chair but the rocking he does is not mearly in the kinetic sense. The 73 year-old former member of Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers is a rock star in every sense of the word and has earned an impressive array of awards for his skillfull guitar work including 2 Grammys and a place in the 2016 NAM TEC Hall of Fame. If that isn't enough, his vast knowledge of ballistics and engineering, earned him a seat in our nation's defense think tank. Here at AAMN, we have an affinity for dichomatous musicians. That's why we LOVE Jeff "Skunk" Baxter! |

Gooding: Reading, Writing and Rhythma-tic
|
August 2, 2022---
If there’s one thing we like here at AAMN, it’s the hard-working, good-looking band, struggling to grab the brass ring of fame. In our eyes, the band Gooding epitomizes these traits, and so much more. We got to taste a sampling of these rock-n-roll warriors as they opened for the Jeff “Skunk” Baxter show at the Troubadour. Here’s what we saw and heard in those thirty minutes, and thereafter. |

Paso Gets a "Slow Ride" from Foghat
|
July 27, 2022---
We've all caught ourselves mumbling those hypnotic words; " slow ride, take it easy...slow ride, take it easy"---and then mouthing those raucous guitar riffs, indelibly etched in our memory from years past. Foghat: the quintessential quartet epitomizing the 70's era of sex, drugs and rock-n-roll, put on a show last night that was anything BUT a slow ride. The 90-minute parade of tunes they performed on the Frontier stage at the California Mid State Fair in Paso Robles, seemed like just a tease...and a good one at that!

Machine Gun Kelly

Photos & Words by Richard Roesler
June 10, 2022 - Got to catch the MGK-22 Mainstream Sellout Tour at the Toyota Center, but almost didn’t! So the day of the concert I had been involved in a family event that has been ongoing for a while. So I haven’t been requesting too many shows as I don’t like to miss a show I’ve been approved for and it had happened in 22 once already. I had put in for the Machine Gun Kelly show a couple months ago, as the “portal” does allow you to request a show months out. That evening as I was sitting at a long, long, long, light about 6:45, decided to check emails and there was the approval! Fortunately I wasn’t too far from my cameras, wasn’t sure about the batteries though? Thankfully they were still ready!

Wolf Alice at House of Blues
|
|
April 16, 2022 - Finally kicked 2022 concert season off with Wolf Alice, great show! So I got to photograph Wolf Alice back in 2015 at Buzzfest 34 I enjoyed the music, what I got to hear. First you have to take your cameras back to the guard shack and then with a festival you’re usually waiting at the next stage. But looking at the images 7 years apart is interesting as it was a bit more hammer down from the start of this years show! And to not have to hurry off, there was some confusion as we were told we could shoot through out the venue after our first 3. I did take some from back past sound, but seemed like I was getting the evil eye from Ms Ellie? It was not a blatant disregard of the rules. Thanks to Ms Ellie and the boys I got to catch up with them again and take a couple of images too.
