A Personal Wish

While sifting through the extensive photojournalistic files I have on the Melvis, I found one of him relaxing in his favorite boa after an intense set. I feel this pic captures the hard work, the artistry, and the sheer passion of the man as he catches his breath. I don't recall the exact date it was taken, possibly Winter 2003, but I miss the Vegas nights where Melvis would come in costme and give a special performance, filled with beautiful music and sentimental moments. I can only hope he will bring these special times back someday...
