The M&I Bank building, 770 N. Water St., is once again lit up in tribute to Summerfest and the bank's sponsorship of its Classic Rock Stage.

Two 18-story electric guitars cover more than 940 windows on the south and west sides of the building. This year, the guitars also are flanked with blue and green lights.

It's an extra touch that adds another element of fun and buzz to these wonderful 11 days that Milwaukee calls Summerfest.

Say what you will about photography on this magazine. At least every story, blog and post has a photo -- more than most sites can claim. And, honestly, is it that bad? Maybe you should offer your stellar, photography skills to OMC?
