Glen Hansard at the Paramount Theater, Denver, Colorado 082424

jasonsargo — Sat, 31 Aug 2024 03:46:17 +0000

Well, I was reminded last weekend of the challenges of concert photography, and the quirks of the Paramount Theater: 3 song limit, a dim single amber spotlight for the first two of those songs, access only to far stage left or right on the wall aisles with no photo pit,...

Revisiting Hillstomp and Slim Cessna’s Auto Club at the 3 Kings Tavern, Denver, 031409

jasonsargo — Sun, 18 Aug 2024 01:27:13 +0000

I can’t wait to shoot Slim Cessna’s Auto Club with Bluebook tomorrow night, and wanted to revisit my shots from 2009 with some new eyes and a few more hours in GIMP. I used to see Hillstomp and SCAC and so many other bands when I started shooting shows...

Alice Merton and Juliana Madrid at the Bluebird Theater, Denver, Colorado 05/16/2024

jasonsargo — Sun, 09 Jun 2024 05:37:53 +0000

What a dream come true! I’m back, baby, and I picked a hell of an artist to shoot! I haven’t shot a concert in a while, but I’ve got some new glass, some new skills, and some new energy! I’ve been playing Alice Merton’s Frankfurt Radio Big Band performance basically on a loop for months at work for my patients , and at home with my wife, and think that Alice is one of the

Boy Hits Car at Herman’s Hideaway, Denver, CO 081814

I think we have a new annual tradition…Boy Hits Car at Herman’s Hideaway! It was another fantastic show, and I think the new songs share plenty of that energy from when the band was just getting their start a few years ago. Keep it up, boys, and I can’t wait...

Winger at the Grizzly Rock, Lakewood, Colorado 120112

jasonsargo — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 06:37:49 +0000

Well, I’ve seen Winger 4 times in my life, and this had to be the best, because I was taking pictures as a pro! Who would have thought that the band that got grief for being a bit cheesy so long ago is really the last band standing with the...

Skid Row at the Grizzly Rock, Lakewood, Colorado 081812

jasonsargo — Mon, 20 Aug 2012 00:38:49 +0000

I love the Grizzly Rock more and more with every show! It is just the perfect fit for any rock show in Denver. The lighting and sound are just stellar, and complemented Skid Row so perfectly. Seeing Rachel Bolan, Dave “The Snake” Sabo, Scotti Hill, Rob Hammersmith after all these...

Hairball at the Grizzly Rock, Lakewood CO 081012 Another great show at the Grizzly Rock! Cinderella bailed on Denver the night before, and I was supposed to grab a few promo shots of the club for a graphics company. Corey Guildner was bummed at the band’s shenanigans and the thought...

jasonsargo — Tue, 31 Jul 2012 06:41:35 +0000

This was my first time shooting at the Grizzly Rock! It was so great to see an awesome new venue in the same building as After The Gold Rush and Hollywood Legends, where I saw so many great rock shows back in the day. Great staff, great drinks, GREAT SOUND,...

Pena, Native Daughters and Russian Circles at the Bluebird Theater, Denver, Colorado 070212

jasonsargo — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 05:36:11 +0000

What a blast! It’s been a while since I’ve seen a hard show, and it was great to catch up with Nick Sullivan from Pena again, and catch two other bands I had never seen before. The dueling drummers from Native Daughters and the heavy grind from Russian Circles just...

Moreland and Arbuckle at the Toad Tavern, Littleton, Colorado, 033012

jasonsargo — Sun, 08 Apr 2012 18:52:15 +0000

Shooting this show worked out so perfectly! I love Moreland and Arbuckle! I thought that I would email the band, and get things approved ahead of time to photograph the set. Well, that didn’t work out quick enough on my end, and our friends Sean and Amy were definitely going,...
