You guys may remember me posting a decent amount of photos of these guys, but I finally got around to making a video of their live shows. I was never able to find anything that accurately represented their live performances, so I set out to do just that. I hope I was successful and you guys like what I made!

Here are the last of the photos I have from Day 1. Top photo is Ought and the bottom 2 are from Nick James’ set. Couldn’t get more photos of either for various reasons, but still check these guys out!

CASHMERE CAT, EVERYONE!!! Another dark set, but luckily there was a spotlight, so I was able to catch these photos.

[robertbennett-blog]

I was only able to catch the last few songs of this set, but Lizzo and her backup dancers KILLED IT!! I’m so upset I missed the first part. She’s amazing.

These photos are from Dad & Dad’s set. Their only lighting was behind the drummer, so it was a little difficult to get shots, but here’s what I got!

WOOOOOOOOOO HOPSCOTCH PHOTOS!!!!! There are going to be a lot of these, so be prepared.

This set is Lilac Shadows, a Raleigh local, and they KILLED their show. I’ve known about them for a while and have always tried to see one of their sets, but could never make it work. This year, it happened and I’m so happy.

Go HERE to see the rest of the photos I got during their set!

I’M HERE I PROMISE!!! And here are some more photos of Must Be The Holy Ghost!

Really love these dudes. They’re always the best shows and I’m actually in the process of putting a video of their live shows together for them (STAY TUNED!!).

Also, this is just a SUPER SMALL sample size of the new photos I have form them. Head >>here<< to see the rest of the photos I got. I couldn’t edit them down enough because they make their sets look so awesome :/

And ANOTHER SET from Alesana! Just as good as always and a really great time. It was nice to catch up with Dennis again and meet some other old friends from back in the day. These guys are probably one of my favorite bands to photograph, I just wish I had the photos I took from their 2005 era at The Brewery (RIP).

There are a TON of other photos from this set, so just head over to the Facebook Page to see them. Definitely some good stuff from these doodz.

Took me a while, but here are some photos I took of Capture The Crown, during their show with Alesana, at the Ziggy’s in Winston Salem. It was a really awesome set and their frontman is fucking CRAZY! Definitely glad I got there in time to catch their set.

There are a few other photos HERE, so go check them shits out!

FINALLY I GOT TIME AND ENOUGH COFFEE TO DO THESE!!!

This is Iselia and if you are a fan of any kind of melodic metal, check these dudes out. Great show, great sound, great guys, and all the photos I took don’t do them justice.

Go get your fix!

FINALLY got a chance to shoot a show of thees guys and get some awesome photos up. If you haven’t heard of Must Be The Holy Ghost, GO CHECK THEM OUT. PLEASE. JUST CLICK THIS LINK! The music is amazing (especially on vinyl, holy crap!) and their live shows are even more so.

I really can’t express to you how good these guys are. Definitely one of my favorite bands. What makes it better is they’re from Winston Salem, NC. Definitely worth your money to go see them.

Make sure to check out the Facebook Page for the rest of the photos that aren't here.

A True Nyan, Bill Nye finds Science Purrrfect! These shirts are a limited order for all you Science cats out there!

Hello again!

I recently started a small project with a friend that involves Bill Nye with a cat nose and ears, on a shirt. If you've got $15 to spare, please consider snatching one before they're gone; there's only a couple days left. If you don't have the cash to spare, please share and reblog this, so everyone can see it! And don't worry, there are more coming in this series that you can keep up with Here.

The proceeds go to funding my YouTube channel and helping my friend move his family back home, from across the country.

Thank you so much and have an awesome frikkin Cat Bill Nye inspired day!!!

Aaaaaaand the Body Games video! Again, I had a blast being there and getting to experience all this first hand. The bands are amazing, go check them out, buy their stuff, or just give them money, also hugs.

[robertbennett-blog]

Finally finished my two videos from New Year's. Here is the first, of T0W3RS set. I had a blast being out there and getting to experience all of this. Big thanks to them for letting me come through!

[robertbennett-blog]

And then there was Body Games!!! This is the first time I have photographed them with the sheet hanging in front and potentially the first time they've ever tried this, but it turned out awesome. Photos don't do it enough justice. Which is why there might be a couple videos coming out later this week but the sets but shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Anyways, go to The Facebook page to check out the rest of the photos I got.

WOOOO 2015!!! WOOOO T0W3RS!!!! THIS SHOW WAS AWESOOOOME!!!

I was going to bring the new year in alone, editing video, until I found out about this show and holy shit am I happy I went. I still pretty much brought 2015 in alone, but at least I got to see the dopest performance to the dopest music while I did it.

To see the rest of the photos from this set, just head to The Facebook page. The Body Games set is coming up next!

Hey again! This is the project I mentioned in the last post. I have started a new YouTube channel that will be dedicated to all of my video projects. This doesn't include my freelance work for bands and stuff like that, but it will have a lot of funny video game content, potentially a horror series, and whatever else we decide to dabble in along the way.

The reason I decided to scrap 40ozGames is because I felt as if it were a bit too inaccessible to a lot of the audience I was trying to relate with, so here I am. I started anew, designed/edited/recorded everything myself, and have some cool things planned. I also have much better equipment and understanding of everything now, so the quality of videos will be much better, but whatever.

Love you guys, stay tuned, you're the best ;3
