The Civil Wars – the duo composed of singer-songwriters Joy Williams and John Paul White – played to a sold-out show at the Neptune Theater on Monday. They’re currently touring the US in support of their debut album, “Barton Hollow”, containing the breakthrough song, “Poison and Wine.” Prior to their set, the buzz around the theater was that it was Joy’s birthday. After taking the stage and singing their first few songs, the crowd reciprocated with a rousing rendition of “Happy Birthday” on Joy’s 29th.

Night Ranger – with its original three band members, Jack Blades, Kelly Keagy and Brad Gillis – performed at KeyArena on October 21st. These guys had a great energy to their set. Here are some of my photos from the show, where I got to take pix during 3 songs, including Damn Yankees’ “High Enough.” Night Ranger’s Jack Blades was part of Damn Yankees along with Tommy Shaw, Michael Cartellone and Ted Nugent.

Uproar Festival headliners Avenged Sevenfold whipped out the lederhosen for their stop at the White River Ampitheatre. There are also some impressive pyrotechnics displayed in some of these photos – witness the giant bat figure on fire. All photos by Heather Fitzpatrick and Geoffrey Gribbin:

Journey is definitely one of my dream bands to shoot. Did I ever, ever think I would be allowed to take photos of Journey? Of Neal Schon? The music fan in me says, no I did not! Journey’s current lineup includes the singer Arnel Pineda plus original members Schon and Ross Valory, who clearly rocked. Journey!:

We’ve got more brilliant work from Heather Fitzpatrick, who covered this year’s Uproar Festival. Las Vegans Escape the Fate and Atlantans Fozzy were just a couple of the bands to hit the Uproar stage:
