Has anyone been following the TicketMaster-LiveNation merger? I hadn't been following it, but saw a link about it over on the Music Press Report. The link was to an article about RollingStone.com being too lazy to have their own journalist watch the congressional hearings so they rewrote a Chicago Sun-Times article instead. At the bottom of the page are links to many more articles on the merger.

What do you all think of this merger?

Ghost Flare : The reason why not to use a filter

Submitted by t0ast on Sat, 02/14/2009 - 12:48pm

So the other day I was shooting Fall Out Boy for the Pepsi Super Bowl Smash, I did not have a long lens and this was a soundboard shoot. My buddy let me borrow his 300 that he had, and it had a filter on it, I am anti-filter because of ghost flares and other reasons, but this time since it was not my lens and he was next to me I left it on because he prob is the percentage of people that use it for protection and would probably yell at me if he saw me trying to take it off.

After waiting all summer, fall and most of winter, in timing with the release of the 2009 Bonnaroo lineup, I have been releasing my newly editing photos from the 2008 Bonnaroo Music Festival.

Enjoy the Bonnaroo photos with streaming audio. This was quite the time and it will be hard to beat the amount of fun I had sharing the stage with Metallica, Phil Lesh and Friends, Pearl Jam, Willie Nelson, Widespread Panic, B.B.
