It was a Friday night & my energy level was pretty high.  I was with AussieDave & The USAhostels Group in
Hollywood, when these 4 strange retro styling guys came into the game room.  One of the band members looked
at me & introduced himself as Jay Gordon of the band, The Crosswalk - his enthusiasm was pretty high.

The thought of watching them perform, didn't spark an interest in me, until this real cute flower girl (Amber) asked me if I wanted 2 go with her 2 see the band perform at The Musicians Institute. "I was not equipped with any kinds of photo gear, so it was not as if she knew I was a photographer."

So, how ironic is that?  The night I take a break from The PHOTOhype Project, I am quickly reminded that being
a photographer means that 'The Shot' is always there.  To be out in the field without a camera in hand, is just another missed
opportunity in my attempts of capturing the Emmy award winning shot.  Inside, Amber got me into the $20 gig (Black Friday),
pass the guards & backstage where the buffet line was.  It was all good & delicious!  I piled both of my plates up high.

Showtime! The Crosswalk took center stage & their own photographer emerged from the darkness.  My trigger
finger was itching 2 shoot something, so I ran out 2 my car 2 break out The PHOTOhype.  I didn't want 2 reign on
their photographers' parade, so I just sat in my chair & practiced on my club shots... -Geo D. Oliver, Alaska
