Wild At Heart


Was just catching up with some picture from the past month and a few shows I went to see. Saw a great bluesfest line up here in Rochester with some great talent. I went on girls night and was able to check out blues rocker Carolyn Wonderland who was my personal favorite with quirky stories and a voice bordering Janis Joplin.

  I also got to put together more Toronto Fan Fest pictures, this time focusing on Star Wars. One of the Star Wars fan clubs, the 501st Legion, was doing some cool fundraisers for the Make-A-Wish Foundation allowing anyone take some shots at some Stormtroopers or pictures with various models and look-a-likes. They are a great organization despite leaning towards the Dark Side.
