Austin Rogers {Pigs-N-Whistle}

So glad I was able to be in LA this evening to take a few photos of the awesome Austin Rogers!  He played all original songs for 30 minutes at Pigs ‘n Whistle in the heart of Hollywood and the crowd loved him!  I couldn’t use my flash so I pushed my camera to the limit and shot at 6400 ISO completely wide open with no tripod.  Yikes!
