I got the AWESOME opportunity to photograph Michael Stanley and The Resonators' sold out and final performance of the season at The Tangier in downtown Akron, Ohio. Much praise and thanks to their manager, Jasmine who hooked me up. ;)
Now, you probably won't find Michael Stanley anywhere on my iPod or iTunes, but he certainly hits my top 5 performers to watch/photograph. He was outstanding to watch and not to mention photographing is huge 10 member band. Here's my select favorites from that evening.

Since I got invited back, I couldn't pass this up at the beautiful Tangier. The room was so packed, it was extremely difficult to grab a shot. I found myself bobbing and weaving between viewers to grab a shots of Michael trying not to tick anyone off. I was given free roam and got to shoot a few back stage, which made for easier shooting.
