Marty’s photos of the day #4129+++: This week I’m taking a break from wildlife photos to post some of my favorite concert pictures. I seldom post more than one photo each day, but today I’m posting a shitload of Halestorm photos from May 30, 2022, at the KettleHouse Amphitheater in Bonner, Montana (just outside of […]
Marty’s photos of the day #4124-4127: This week I’m taking a break from wildlife pictures to post some of my favorite concert photos. Today’s photos are from two separate Melissa Etheridge concerts. The first was outdoors, in 2017, at the KettleHouse Amphitheater in Bonner, MT (bottom two photos); the second was indoors, in 2019, at […]
Marty’s photo of the day #3996: Wow! Having grown up in the music business—first as a disc jockey and then as a talent manager—music has always been an important part of my life. Throughout the years, I’ve seen many great concerts, from Bruce Springsteen to the Rolling Stones to the Pretenders (original band) to Within […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2974: This is Deb and me at the KettleHouse Amphitheater, before last night’s Berlin, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark (OMD), and B-52s concert.

Marty’s photo of the day #2962: Melissa Etheridge was incredible last night. Deb and I had seen her two years ago at the KettleHouse Amphitheater with Pat Benatar. That was a fine show. However, outdoor multi-headliner shows tend to focus on the greatest hits. Last night, at the Wilma, it was just her and her […]
Marty’s photos of the day #2409-2011: This past year was the year to check-off the last three acts on my bucket list that I absolutely had to see live: Goldfrapp, Melissa Etheridge, and Garbage. All three concerts were outstanding. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be Goldfrapp, because their Seattle concert was […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2276: Rock and roll is generally a liberal form of music. Even so, when it comes to guitarists, there is still quite a bit of sexism, as women seldom get the credit they deserve for their ability to play their instruments. I, being a non-sexist kind of guy, insist on […]
Marty’s photo of the day #2274: During the past year, I have been working hard at checking off artists on my concert bucket list. Three of those acts included Joan Jett, Garbage, and Melissa Etheridge. One thing all three had in common was that they performed outdoors on equal bills with other acts. Despite the […]
