  • Bill Hale... 
  • Photographer, Artist, Author and Daddy Aloha 
  •   I started photographing rock bands at the age of eighteen. In the 1980s, I was the chief photographer for Metal Rendezvous International Heavy Rock-Metal Magazine. 
  • While on staff I was able to shoot many of the top bands of the day including Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Riot and UFO. 
  • Also was fortunate enough to photograph many legends before they ascended to rock and roll heaven  Phil Lynott, Bon Scott, Freddie Mercury and Rory Gallagher are on that list. 
  • Metal Rendezvous gave the first media coverage to some of metals biggest legends, including Anthrax, W.A.S.P, L.A. Guns and Armored Saint and a little band by the name of Metallica! 
  • My work has appeared in such metal magazines as Kerrang!, Enfer and Metal Mania. While I live in Hawaii still work with rock and rollers.  
  •  I have two photo books published: 
  • Metallica: Club Dayz 1982-1984 ECW Press 2009   
  • Spanish reissue - Argentina 2013 via Jedbangers Argentina   
  • Megadeth: Another Time, A Different Place MTV/VH1 Classic 2012   
  • Thrash Metal: The Global Metal Movement Fall 2014 (tentatively)   
  • Dukes On Sunday A month of Sundays - memories for a lifetime Winter 2014 (tentatively)   
  • Proud Gallery in London hosted my very first gallery showing Fade to Black, Metallica by Bill Hale February 3rd  April 3rd 2011 
  • Just in case you did not view my very "Bill Hale" video here is what I need to complete this my 3rd photo book...
  •  A new mac book pro. Mine has bitten the dust after so many years of faith service...
  • A new film scanner My trusty Nikon scanner has too sadly died so need to acquire a replacement. 

  • BUT most of the campaign pledges will go to the printing cost as I am going to self publish the book!!! 

  • NO CORPORATE AMERICA of this one It's a Thrash book and needs to stay THRASH!!!
  •  
  • Think Metallica, Slayer, Exodus, Megadeth No Compromise just the goods!!! 
  • And that's why I feel Indie goo is a great fit for this project right!!!      
  • As I have said this is my 3rd photo book and it's a great look back into the Birth of Thrash in the Bay Area!!! 

  • And if you are already familiar with my work you know that I had total access to all the bands that I worked with!!! 
  • Which means very exclusive shots group shots, candid shots and KILLER live shots!!! 
  • I am very excited to get this one out to all you fans!!!   
  • This is a photo book and my 3rd I'm very happy with this volume so far! to a way still to go and the big decision now is what publishing company to use! 
  • Also if we can pass the minimum dollar amount I will add more gifts to all who buy the book!!!     
  • And if you just want to help out
  • You spreading the world or sharing this campaign to a music or photography fan  please do 
  • And big Mahalo nui (Hawaiian for  Thank you!) so there is it. 
  • very cool of all of you to stop bye and check out my work!!!
