Check it out guys!
My good buddy from back home, @jasonrussell, hosts a weekly portrait contest here on steemit. For week 7, he gave it a theme: MUSIC. Show him what you've got!
[Both of these were taken by either @jasonrussell or @melodyrussell in November 2009. -(Guys, I'm sorry I ruined the quality on these! I blame fakebook.)]
^^^ That right there, takes you to his official post about the weekly contest. He teamed up with a brilliant musician and a wonderful lady @jessamynorchard to promote The Steemit Local Music Society on Discord.
Music and photography mean a hell of a lot to our little group of friends in Southern Missouri. I decided not to enter this contest but help them promote it, because 1) Jason and his wife, Melody, took all music related photos of me, so that's not very fair and 2) all the other pictures I have of meeting artists or during the show are crappy cellphone pics, probably from the middle of a most pit.
But to end this off, I'll leave you guys with a few of my favorite MUSIC PORTRAITS from my terrible cellphone, or taken of me on a terrible cellphone.
[I met Mushroomhead once. At least two of them stuck dirty hands in my mouth during their photos]
[This was me meeting one of my favorite musicians in the world, Laura Jane Grace of AGAINST ME!. We had a nice chat about my dead ex boyfriend. I cried and she offered me a beer. Instead I hugged her and then got this super grainy but definitely one of my favorite photos of all time. I've met her about 4 or five more times since this.]
So guys, give us your music portraits. Go check out the discord and give us your tunes.
