The Queen, Aretha Franklin at Radio City Music Hall

The Queen Aretha Franklin took the stage of Radio City Hall tonight to deliver the soul she is so known for. However, tonight had a slightly more important urgency to her performance. She was giving her all for her honorary niece, Whitney Houston. Whitney's funeral is tomorrow and Aretha will be singing at the church service. With Clive Davis and L.A. Reid in the audience, Whitney Houston's presence was felt and her life was celebrated in songs all night. There was a stirring moment in particular when Aretha performed, "I Will Always Love You" in honor of Houston.

Guns N' Roses - Terminal 5 - Rippin' Up NYC

Axl Rose and company brought the noise and the bone-crunching guitar tone to Terminal 5 tonight. The band was on fire and still makes you rock as hard as you remember. The sold out crowd was crushing inside Terminal 5 to an excruciatingly uncomfortable level, but fans didn't care. Guns N' Roses did not disappoint - they played everything for hours and Axl's snakeskin snarl made for some pretty wicked photographs. Thanks for keepin' the flame alive Axl!

Dina & Adam's Fantastic Dance Party at Kiss N' Fly

The heat was turned up last Saturday night for a full-scale dance party at Kiss N' Fly in the meat-packing district. Dina & Adam came to party to celebrate their birthdays with their friends and family. When you throw a party in a night club, expect things to get crazy - crazy good. Gourmet Advisory made it come to life. It was a thrill to capture it for them - enjoy some of the action here...

Applause New York City Presents HAIR

I LOVE Applause New York City. I think its hands-down the best young performing arts program in New York and the quality of the performances is simply stellar. HAIR tells the story of the "tribe", a group of politically active, long-haired hippies of the "Age of Aquarius" living a bohemian life in New York City and fighting against conscription into the Vietnam War. It's refreshing to see the 9-12 graders perform this mature content. Here are my highlighted photographs from last week's performance.
