Here are two photos from Ricky Adam, a killer photographer from Northern Ireland. You might remember him from his interview in MRR #276. These two pics were part of the Maximum Photo Issue and photo show. Something different than the typical sweaty-dude moshpit type photo.

Wandi Rana sent some killer, crazy photos of Indonesian punks for the photo issue. Here’s one more that didn’t make it in:

For the Euro-philes, Karl Nagel sent a link to an amazing site, Punkfoto.de, a collection of over 4,500(!) punk photos from 1977 – 2007. Plenty of live photos, a bunch squats, more mohawks than you can count…an overall amazing documentation of the German punk scene.

Going on tour is the most fun a band can have. And the least fun. Here are three shots from the road, because it’s been far, far too long since I’ve gotten to go on tour.

Thanks to everyone who came out for the MRR photo issue photo show. Lotsa people came to Needles & Pens and had a great time. Hell, I left an hour after it was supposed to end and the place was still full. I’d call that a success. Stay tuned for info on how to get postcard sets and silkscreened posters from the show.
