Hey, my name is Mike, and I am a local Athens photographer and music lover. I go to tons of local shows, and take photos whenever I can. You can see some of my work below, and at my website www.deadlydesigns.com. I tend to be more into louder music, but I am open to anything. If you'd like to chat about anything message me or you can IM me on AIM, my sn is destructionkit.
I have been taking photos at shows since 2003, but got more seriously into it early 2006. I currently shoot with the following gear:
Nikon D300
Nikon D50
Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM
Nikkor 35-70mm f/2.8
Nikkor 20mm f/2.8
Nikkor 80-200mm f/2.8D ED
Nikkor 50mm f/1.8
Peleng 8mm f/3.5
Nikon SB-600
Yeah, I am a Nikon guy, what can I say?
In my non-concert going time I work in the OIIT department of the University System of Georgia Board of Regents here in Athens. We support the 35 institutions in Georgia with their financial, HR, and online course software. We support around 10 different applications, and I love it because it makes me think.
I consider myself a very relaxed, respectful and nice guy, and takes a lot to get me mad. I like to travel and try new things. I am pretty shy if I don't know you well, but once I do I am fairly outgoing.
I love pizza, reeses cups, chinese food [fried cat], marshmellow peeps and classic disney cartoons.
I love my life.
Who I'd like to meet:
Non-pretentious music lovers who like similar music as me. Also would love to talk shop with fellow photographers. I would love to meet Anton Corbijn, but I would probably be too nervous to speak. I would also love to meet Trent Reznor.

That sucks that your place gotten broken into! It seemed so safe out there, but one of my friends moved out there and got robbed also. I guess I was lucky! Thats awesome that you bought a house! Is it in Athens? I live on the Westside in a townhouse thats kinda in the ghetto but I like it. Remember how many times I made you come over and kill spiders? LOL!! xo Jenn
