I have been taking photos of the MyFM Local Music Awards for many years, not even sure how many off the top of my head. This year due to many circumstances it was later in the year, I kind of figured it was not happening to be honest. And then it did… yesterday, and it was glorious. These two above are the ringleaders of the whole gig, and they also happen to be two of my favorite people on the planet. Ray and Molly Auger put on an award show once that reminds us how fun it is to be part of this music scene. Great people, entertaining other great people with so much talent it is ridiculous. The whole event was a highlight, but I am allowed to have some favorites right? Kelley and Ed, one play Keys the other Drums, together they did an instrumental version, (that ended up having vocals by the whole audience), of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody, it was crazy good. There was pop, rock, country, yacht rock, a Who cover band that reminded me I do not listen to enough Who, humor, awards and plenty to drink for those who needed it. Thank you to Ray and Molly for putting this on over and over, and for all the others who help, Liz’s Diamond for hosting and Milford TV for recording the thing. If you missed it all, well you missed it. Don’t miss the next one.
