Mudcat, of the Music Maker Revue, sprawls out on a blanket while on a foray into the crowd during his performance Friday.

Since I’m not currently working for any publication or newspaper and was thus unable to get credentialed for the festival, I set out with a camera and two lenses to see how much access I could get. While I couldn’t break through the barricades around the stage like the “real” media, I did the best I could from the fringes.

Best part about not working/being on deadline? Being able to relax and completely enjoy the shows without worrying about rushing back to the office to punch out captions (although I did that anyway on my own time). I got to meet a lot of awesome people, from musicians, fans, fellow photographers and even the production crew. A special shout out to everyone with the Music Maker Revue — y’all seriously rock and keep the music alive. It was great to get to know some of you personally this weekend!
