Screaming by the Rapids

On Sunday I flew to Grand Rapids, MI for the afternoon to photograph Mayday Parade.

The band picked me up at the airport in their rental RV. It’s a major step up from the beat up van that most bands travel in when they’re on tour.

I immediately hit it off with Brooks the guitarist because he was reading a book about how to properly play and bet blackjack. I learned the game by playing a video game when I was a kid. I still enjoy playing whenever I find myself in Vegas or Atlantic City. Not big money – just for fun.

Good luck Brooks and let me know how you fare.

I took the guys downtown near the river and we spent a couple of hours shooting. I always like to make people scream for photos and it was easy to get the guys into it. I usually scream first and then they follow along.

I’m surprised that no one called the police as we were right in front of the Gerald Ford Museum.
