I’ve always liked live music, so when I heard about Burly Ama-Slam I was stoked to go!  The event was hosted by The Skinny Pancake and emceed by Dr. Rob of The Phineas Gage Project.  Dr. Rob is a professor of mine and he gave me the opportunity to be the photographer for the event, which allowed me to get some practice photographing live shows.

Ama-Slam is a “battle of the bands” of sorts, where ten performers from around Burlington each get to play a song of their choosing.  They are then judged on a scale of 1-10 by three judges.  The final score determines the winner.

I had an incredible time at this event, and was exposed to some talented local musicians.  I look forward to going to the next one on April 27!
