and i cant wait.
last year the Donnas, the Kottonmouth Kings, Korn, Ozzy and many more rocked the strip. (check out my photo essay review of last years fest on Pop & Hiss).
this year Common, Slash, and the Smashing Pumpkins are the big acts that will have us rocking out to.
it’s been super hot all week, but the Good Lord pushed the high temps out of Hollywood this weekend and thats why it’s right to give him praise.
Here’s a quickie little video clip of my favorite moment at last year’s SSMF which beautifully employs not only the main stages on either side of the historic street but also some of the coolest clubs in Hollywood: The Roxy, The Whisky, and the Viper Room.
oh and also the Hustler Store is right there on the strip too. ha!
<p>As you take some great photographs, you might be interested in a photo challenge each month on my blog.
<p>
<p>It’s called “5 on the fifth” – you either take 5 random pictures of something that happens to you on the 5th of September (or the days leading up to it) or perhaps go for my suggested theme. This month, the theme is The Blues.
<p>
<p>A link to past months can be found here:
