Picture this… It’s 1983. A sweaty club in Toronto. Cameras rolling for CHUM/CityTV. And on stage — a young guitar player who’s about to take over the world. Stevie Ray Vaughan wasn’t a household name yet… but if you were in that room at The El Mocambo, you knew you were witnessing something different.

Doug McClement was there to record it. Not just as a fan — but as the guy responsible for capturing lightning in a bottle. And here’s the thing about lightning… sometimes it bites back. The night before, in Hamilton, Stevie got shocked by a live mic. Not metaphorically. For real.

Jojo’s there to work — credentialed, backstage access, the whole deal. And then he’s given a choice. He can shoot the first three songs in the pit for Sabbath…or he can head backstage and meet Lemmy. For most photographers, that’s not even a question. But for Jojo… it was. Because to some people, rock stars are legends…

Picture this… You finally get a ticket to see one of the greatest songwriters of all time. A quiet night. An acoustic guitar. The perfect room. Massey Hall in Toronto. Red seats. Warm lights. The kind of venue built for stories and subtlety. And on stage? John Prine. Just a man and his songs. Brad from CIUT’s Phil’s in Radio Show had been waiting for this one. But when he went to grab a ticket…The only seat left was way up top. In the Balcony. Back row.
