I hear your request for a "vertically challenged" photographer. I am on call as the need "arises." In fact, my left leg is even shorter now after my unanticipated encounter with the ground 2 years ago (it's not the fall that breaks bones, it's the sudden stop at the end).

But what I really want to know about Phoenix, are there any hotties wearing bikinis in the grocery stores all summer long?

The girls I see in the supermarkets around here love to wearing spandex. For most, it's dangerous. It's like the Hoover dam.....don't be within 50 miles if it breaks!!!

John Roberts  {JR} wrote on Fri, 20 July 2007 18:03 I'm down with that concept, but I have one question. Are the girls in bikinis attractive? We already know it's hot there. If the majority of girls I see in the supermarkets here were wearing bikinis that would be a very strong reason to move almost anywhere else. JR Don't forget I still have my real estate license just in case you want to move here. Yes, most of them are very attractive.

It is true, indeed.  When I lived there it always seemed that I would see more beautiful women within the first 10 minutes of leaving the airport than I had seen in a week on the road.

My wife got about 40 pics of her.  We would have gotten a lot more but one of her security guys was a complete jerk to my wife.  Not wanting her to take pictures of her from where she was.  I was real close to pressing mute on the processors if he would have continued with his attitude.  As far as we are concerned we WILL take pictures of any artist playing through our equipment from any location as long as it doesn't interupt the performance and as long as we don't go on stage to do it.

We also have a "wall of shame" at home where many of the artists have signed our badges and set lists, stage plots, etc.  He wouldn't even let us ask her to sign our badges.  I understand that it is his job to keep her secure but I would fire anyone with an attitude like his if I were the boss.  Especially considering we put in over 16 hours that day in 114 degree weather!  He needs to have a little respect for  the production staff!

Sounds like normal high-profile artist rules to me, Ryan. They're not on stage for me, they're there for the audience, and if it comes down to a photo... well, I don't want it that badly, I'll just mix, then, sir.

well, considering that from that angle that dress (or the wind in her dress) makes her look pregnant, I can see why they don't want any non-ideal shots getting out. (that pic is probably worth money to the right people)

as for signing laminates, it's not for me, but if she hasn't been performing all day long I'm sure she would have time and energy to sign a few things for the crew.

She looked pregnant to me the whole time, not just from the AC and fan blowing her skirt around.  

The picture isn't worth a penny.  My wife was further away from her than all the media people who were getting thousands of photos from right in fromt of her.  My wife was right next to a speaker stack.

I'll tell you a picture that is worth a lot if the one showing her using my "Carvin" TCS monitors.    Now that's worth some money!



Wait, I just gave it to millions of people on the net, now it's not worth anything either.  OH well, I guess I have to keep working for a living.

BTW, her mix engineer was way cool as were the rest of her band and her dancers.  They were particularly thankful for the fans that were not on the rider but were provided and the extra drinks we made sure they had to keep them cool and alive.

[Jamin Lynch]

OK...but can she sing???

All right, I admit it, I did it. The baby's name will be Qwghlm, and he'll stay in the care of his mother while I continue to work to feed my family.
