Rock on

Gregg, who runs our studio The Jam, told everyone to "let your freak flag fly" for our annual awards show, the Jammys. I took that to heart and went out to find a funky outfit, and I dyed my hair to (sort of) match. I've always wanted to do something really drastic with my hair, and I figured what better time than this show?

Obviously, this wasn't taken by me, but I love this shot (one of the few photos of me I like) and just had to work it into my project.

[Melissa Pike]

@marlboromaam Pin away! I think the rake, straw hat and overalls will fit in just fine! ;-)

[Chris Wang]

This is great - do you have any video? We should have a 365 meetup at your concert and then some night shots around the city

[Vickie Posey]

Really great shot, I agree. Hope you took home a jammy! Love that :-)

[Darlene]

Wow, what a great photo and nice to see you on stage having a great time, Melissa. Too bad there is no volume or video on here.

[Lisa]

Very cool! Sounds fun!

[Sue Bisgard]

I can almost hear you! Very super cool shot! You look awesome!

[Melissa Pike]

@kimgrowsup Kim, it's just a hobby. My husband and I are in the band together, and it's a great way to blow off steam after work. Thanks for the compliment!

@chriswang @darsphotos Here's one of my favorite songs from our set: http://youtu.be/kkoNgZEd4nc

[glynnis garrod]

And it's not in your main albumn? - I came looking for you , you freakin awsome talented woman !!

[glynnis garrod]

And BTW I think that's a jolly fine theme for a party !

[Melissa Pike]

@glyn Well, I figured since I didn't take this one, it didn't belong in my main album, so I stuck it here instead. ;-)

[Melissa Pike]

@glyn and of course I meant to say, thank you!!!

[Heidi]
