Ice Mike

Ice Mike, originally uploaded by Subject is too Cute.

While enjoying some alone time at the Maxwell Street Market today I met the Maxwell Street Blues Band. They were jamming at the entrance near Canal and 16th Street. It's been a while since I was lucky enough to catch a blues band at the market.

Ice Mike was my photo target today. His hat, sunglasses, and goatee fit the Blues Mold to a T.

Ice Mike enticed some Latino listeners with a few strums of La Bamba. If they actually played the entire tune the crowd would have gone wild.

I then took photos of the other members and found it difficult to choose the Stranger Photo I would submit. Sticking to my original interest I have post Ice Mike's photo but I hope you enjoy the photos of John and Dan.

This photo is number #75 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at 100 Strangers
