Led Zeppelin live on Danish TV in 1969
Click on this line to view the YouTube video of “Led Zeppelin live on Danish TV in 1969” posted on the Jean Bonini YouTube channel.
A vintage video featuring four songs. Led Zeppelin changed their name from the New Yardbirds to Led Zeppelin in 1968. So this is how great the band was, only one years after they official became Led Zeppelin.
Interesting to see Jimmy Page playing a Fender Telecaster.
This video also includes John Bonham on Drums.
Memories on a passing breeze. Hope that you enjoy this blast from the past.

“Jimi Hendrix” performs “Purple Haze” in 1967
Sick like a dog this weekend. Thought that a bit of “Jimi Hendrix“ would help lift the “Purple Haze“ which has enveloped me.

I managed to catch the tail end of the “54-40” concert held at Yonge Dundas Square, in Toronto on Sept 30 2015.
The last time that I saw this great band play was about a year ago, at the Oakville Waterfront Festival.
The Sept 30 2015 “54-40” concert was part of the Canada’s Walk of fame Festival.

It was outstanding to catch Canadian Icon “Bruce Cockburn” perform. Almost did not make it. I arrived well after the concert had started. So glad that it was a rather long concert.
The end of the concert was also very cool, in that “Bruce Cockburn“ came back on stage to do an encore for all his fans.

Photos of the “Marianas Trench” concert at Nathan Philips Square on July 15 2015. Part of Panamania Toronto.
“Marianas Trench” performed at Nathan Philips Square on July 15 2015.
The awesome concert was part of Panamania Toronto.

Josh Ramsay, the Lead Singer, interacted with the audience from the far left of the stage all the way to the far right of the stage.
This guy did not stand still. Incredible to watch stage presence.

Later into their set Josh jumps off the stage into the Photog’s Pit, to get closer to that Band’s fans. This kind of stuff is rare for any band, let alone a Canadian one. He then proceeded to climb up and started to “body surf” in the audience, while singing. Again, something that one does not see here in “conservative” Canada.

Josh’s effort helped the fans feel like they were part of the performance. The fans really are the most important part of any musical performance. Band’s are on stage for their fans. The guys in “I Mother Earth” talk about it all the time. The Marianas Trench concert, showed that these guys also know this lesson very well.

Concerts are not just about the music. I have a great stereo, just ask my neighbors. I can listen to music at home. I go to concerts to “see” the band play.

The visual impact of Josh Ramsay’s performance was inspiring. This was old school, from Chubby Checkers “The Twist” to Elvis Presley. He worked the audience and the audience “loved it”.

Simply put, the Marianas Trench concert on July 15 at Nathan Philips Square, created life long memories for everyone in the audience.


This was one of the best concerts that I have seen…

Awesome concert. The Singer has an amazing stage presence
The interaction with the audience that the Singer had was something that is seldom seen. His performance reminded one of the late Freddie Mercury, when he performed with Queen.
Will post concert pics when I have a chance to do some Post Processing.

“I Mother Earth” Complete Concert at “It’s Your Festival” on July 10 2015, in Hamilton Ontario
I was informed about this video by Dan, a close friend of “I Mother Earth”.
This video is the complete “I Mother Earth” Concert at “Its Your Festival” in Hamilton. I wanted to shoot that show, but there was no way that I get out to Hamilton on July 10 2015.
Thanks to the gcarn YouTube channel for creating this video and making it available on YouTube.
“I Mother Earth” is an amazing band. I’ve seen them do a hour and half set and then come off stage and immediately do a meet and greet with fans. No break whatsoever. This is group of Musicians, “who really care about their fans“.

Photos of the “I Mother Earth” concert at WTFest 2015 in Brantford
The first time that I saw “I Mother Earth” perform was at Cosmo MusicFest. They set lasted about 1.5 hours and on a very sunny day. After their set finished the band did not head to an air-conditioned area. Instead they all headed to the side of the stage for a meet and greet with their fans. No break what so ever. Rarely does one see such commitment by a Band to their fans.

Photos of LIGHTS performing on Canada Day 2015 up in Vaughan
Yes, I finally caught a live LIGHTS performance.
LIGHTS was scheduled to play at WTFest in Brantford on the Sunday. It rained that day. I myself do not mind, but my camera gear does not like getting soaked. Vincent did not get back to Brantford on Sunday. Apparently LIGHTS did perform that day. Was rather unhappy that I missed it.

Photos of the “Jessica Mitchell” concert at the Luminato Festival on Friday June 26 2015
Finally got a chance to visit the Luminato Festival, in Toronto this year. We had shot a lot of concerts at the 2014 Luminato Festival. I really enjoyed the low key,, up close and personal concerts. Huge contrast on Friday night, when I later headed to Nathan Phillips Square which was jam packed with people taking in a Toronto Jazz Festival concert.
