Me and Mr. Tritt

During a weekend break from Mexico, I got to photograph a Travis Tritt concert/lobbying event for select Georgia officials at the Fabulous Fox Theatre. There was some controversy over the event...but why should I explain it when the Atlanta Journal/Constitution did such a nice job in the morning's paper...

"A society photographer, Jeff Keesee, said he was "a bridge" between the luminaries inside and the activists on the street. "They're all my friends from Trees Atlanta and the Sierra Club," he said. There were a lot of MARTA union members, too." ---ajc.com

I got a raise?!? "Society Photographer"? - now I'm just like Liz Umbrie in "Philadelphia Story"...but also in trouble. My entire quote continued with ..."but this is not a Trees Atlanta protest; Trees Atlanta is a non-political philanthropic organization." That wasn't in the article, so my TA friends are rightfully a little concerned. RATS!

P.S. Mr. Tritt was really nice...
