Hootenanny 2011

Posted on July 5, 2011 by Christy Borgman

For the second year, I headed to Orange County for the Hootenanny festival. And, for the second year, I cursed the long drive (due to traffic only) and got lost! But, I was very glad that I went and had a great time! How could I not? The line-up was great, the people were gorgeous and the sun was blazing! I got there barely in enough time to get a few shots of John Doe…but was locked and loaded for the rest of the day.

Black Veil Brides 6-18-11

Posted on June 19, 2011 by Christy Borgman

The Black Veil Brides took over Hollywood and Highland yesterday! First a signing at Hot Topic, then a free concert in the courtyard of the complex. It was jam packed and they put on an awesome high energy show…even after Andy jumped from a balcony and broke three ribs! What a showman!

The event was in support of the band’s major label debut, “Set the World On Fire”, which came out this week. If you are in LA and missed them yesterday, you can catch them in August at the Sunset Strip Music Festival.

Angeleno Heights

A few weeks ago, I spent a Saturday morning strolling around the Angeleno Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles with the Los Angeles Conservancy and my lomography camera (Diana F+). Here is what I captured.

Tom Waits Esotouric 5/28/11

Posted on June 3, 2011 by Christy Borgman

If you live in Los Angeles, or are planning to visit, I highly recommend checking out Esotouric Tours. They have a number of different tours that showcase this awesome city in a unique and interesting way. I recently went on the Tom Waits inspired tour (Crawling Down Cahuenga: Tom Waits’ LA) and had a great time! David Smay, author of Tom Waits’ Swordfishtrombones, was our host for the day, along with Esotouric’s co-founders Kim Cooper and Richard Schave.

Here are a few of my favorite photos from the day:
