POKER FACE: Junior Henry Rodgers strums his guitar during the chamber guitar performance at Stubb’s Bar-B-Q on Tuesday, Feb. 11. The show was very serious and intimate, the audience listening closely to the soft music coming from the guitars. “We were all seated so closely together on stage,” Rodgers said. “It was kind of difficult to keep a straight face and remain focused in such a cramped environment, but the show went really well, and everyone played nicely and did a good job.”

Shield opinion editor Josie Bradsby selected this image of then junior Henry Rodgers strumming his guitar during the chamber guitar performance at Stubb’s B-B-Q on Feb. 11, 2020. The show was very serious and intimate, the audience listening closely to the soft music coming from the guitars. “We were all seated so closely together on stage”, Rodgers said. “It was kind of difficult to keep a straight face and remain focused in such a cramped environment, but the show went really well and everyone played nicely and did a good job.”
“I really like this picture because of how calm it is,” Josie says. “It’s comforting in a very peaceful way and it makes me feel happy. It’s an intimate photo that really makes you feel like you’re there, listening to the guitarist.”
