November doesn’t usually get a lot of hype in the world of music—I’m here to change that with a massive set of rock music photos—mostly they’re live because that’s the way rock is meant to be heard.

I’ll be representing VirtualMusic.tv at this year’s New Music Seminar in New York—a music business geared TED-like event. It’ll be my first time at NMS—I’m stoked to hear ideas and meet people. There’s a lineup of keynote speakers during the day and performances at night. I’ll recap with an editorial. If you’re going—I’d love to meet ya’. Tip: promo code nmsny10 might still work for 2-for-1.
