Circa 1980 “Man with the dogs pose” backstage at the Whisky-a-Go-Go in West Hollywood, California ... this may have been the first time i made photos with the DK’s one on one... lots of learning going on, stoked at how easy access was to the people we watched perform on stage the same night... PUNK ROCK creatively peaking era... other photographs from this evening appear in the MY RULES book bigger and better than ever... and Jello has a great essay written specifically for the book (as he did for my original MY RULES photozine as well)... big inspiration to so much punk stuff back then and to this day in ways you may not realize Jello is currently working on a “high profile” podcast... here’s the press release: Jello Biafra, the musician, spoken word artist, and the former lead singer and songwriter for the San Francisco punk rock band Dead Kennedys is finally unleashing his VERY OWN no- holds- barred, shit stirring PODCAST!!
