Well being a photographer definitely has it’s perks.  One of those perks is getting to photograph your (my) favorite bands.  Here are some images from Big Boogaloo’s performance at Harbourfest 2011 here in Kenora.  They were AWESOME and so much fun to listen to.  If I were getting married or throwing a party,  I’d have to hire them!  Great performance!  Oh and before I forget…”Ken, I was blown away by your rendition of  Johnny Cash’s song “Fulsom Prison”. Wow!

 

Here are a few more images for you from day 3 of Harbourfest. It’s rather nostalgic as this will be the last year Harbourfest will be held under this tent.  Don’t worry, they aren’t canceling it but rather enhancing it by moving it to the new 4 seasons tent!  I can  hardly wait to see it completed.  Blue Rodeo is set to perform on Sept 16, 2011 for the opening of the new venue!  Yippeee!!!!

 

The Goodwill Geyser had perfect timing.

Tickets Anyone?

Hmmm, nice face Patrick!

Birds eye view of the big tent.

Aha!  Finally caught Randy on camera!

Well I have to confess I’m feeling the lack of sleep tonight so you only get one photograph, but  it’s the most important one!

I got a photograph with the lead singer from Doc Walker!!!!!  Yippeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!

 

Wow, talk about fantastic performances this evening.  It’s 3 am and…oh wait…it’s 4am and I’m still wide awake. So, I figured I’d give you some sneak peaks of this evening’s images.  Alright, I know a sneak peak is supposed to be just a couple, but how can I stop at just 2 or 3!!??

I get to go back stage!!! YAY!!  I get to go where ever I like, Woohoo!! See, I’ve even got proof!

Oh ya, Patrick, you’re welcome, you’re welcome, you’re welcome times 100 and thank you this is so much fun!

First group was “A Flock of Seagulls”, and it’s true… the drummer was definitely having the most fun.  He reminded me of Animal on the Muppet’s!  Check him out!

 

Next up was Honeymoon Suite – They ROCKED!!

Then it Was Aldo Nova – Congratulations…What a comeback!

Check out the light show!

And last but not least – Kenny Shields & Streetheart

Wow, can’t believe the August long weekend is here already!

Did I tell you that I’m the official photographer for Harbourfest this year? Well, I am.  And, with the help of Katie Murray, it’s going to be a blast.

Friday night we start off with a concert under the big tent on the harbor front. Activities all day Saturday  starting  at 11am and Sunday starting with a Pancake breakfast at the Jubilee Church.  Emmm Pancakes!

Will try to post images throughout the weekend for all to enjoy!  Make sure you come to the harbourfront to check out all the activities.
