Absolutely the show of the year for me at Portland’s Aladdin Theater on Friday. A mind blowing show by six stellar musicians!
I may blog the story of my wonderful experience soon, but for now, here are my images. Many more to come later this week.
So great to see Adrian Belew and Tony Levin together again!
My first time seeing Markus Reuter play and he did not disappoint! An amazing musician and great guy.
Synchronicity!
p@ Mastelloto was as good as ever- maybe even better than ever!
Adrian Belew Power Trio’s new drummer Tobias Ralph is a real monster.
An amazing player who shocked me several times!
The amazing bassist Julie Slick. She is also an amazing chef! More on that soon.
What more can be said about Tony Levin? He is phenomenal and a class act.
Markus had the daunting task of having to play Robert Fripp’s parts! He did a stellar job.
Ade was in very fine form, looking fit and exuberant!
I was happy that I was able to shoot this show. I did so thoroughly, as it seems to be historical on several levels.
I hope Tony won’t mind me using one of his audience images- can you spot yours truly? My sincere thanks to all the wonderful players who treated me like family. An unforgettable time and show.
Mark, these are fantastic! Thank you for sharing these photos. You really captured a moment in time and I will keep coming back to look at these, so fantastic! Syncronicity is my fav!

Great photos and comments. Can’t wait until Tuesday.
Patricia, thank you. That means a lot to me, especially coming from you.
Allison, thanks! These guys are my all time favorites and photographing them is an honor.
Fine shots from a fine photographer. You edited yourself too heavily though – please post more! Thanks for sharing these! – S.
Is Mark Colman one of the best rock photographers on the planet? I honestly can’t believe the answer is anything less than a resounding ‘you bet your ass!” These shots are perfectly timed, full of life and dripping with atmosphere…!
Martin, thanks very much! Scott, I have a lot more- coming soon!
great pics of a great show. thanks!
Saw the show a few months back in Annapolis, MD. From the comments on this page, I fear they are only getting better (if that is possible)! Incredible musicians.
Micael, as long as you give me a photo credit, and it’s only for your blog (not for sale) it’s fine.
