29th IBC FINALS

Right, so it has been a tad over a month since the finals took place at the Orpheum Theater here in Memphis, TN

A superb week of interviews ended in a day of relaxing with friends and listening to some wonderful music by the finalists.

This is, by no means all of the acts who graced the stage that day.  Unfortuately, a week of little sleep and standing most of the days resulted in ym being dog-a** tired and I didn't do a great job focusing the camera...or maybe it was my eyes that would not focus! 

Anywho, I wanted to share what i could and am doing so now!
