Music in pictures thread

[VerbalPuke]

So we got one of these in the ring, so I thought this might be fun to do here. Lord knows there are plenty of awesome and weird photos of musicians and artists out there. Part of this was because I saw this photo of Lux Interior and Poison Ivy that blew my mind and I wanted to share, granted I think only Skummy and Cloudy are the only other Cramps fans I know of.

And one of GG Allin sort of acting friendly.

for GG Allin, acting "sort of friendly" involved not shitting in his hand and spreading it on people

Also, I know like 3 bands named The Cramps. Is this the punk-a-billy band?

[VerbalPuke]

GG was generally a miserabke fucking guy even when he wasn't spreading shit.

And yeah, that is the Cramps you are thinking of.

[Lint]

They had a few songs I liked, nothing I was a major fan of though

Foreground: Jesse Michaels, Tim Armstrong and Matt Freeman

Background: DAve Mellow and their saxophonist whose name I can't remember from Operation Ivy (Fun trivia...Tim Armstrong went by Lint in Operation Ivy and that actually where I got my name from!)

This thread needs more Lars' little Ulrich (NSFW!!!)

There was a naked picture of Lars Ulrich here. It was gross. Trust me.

I know this is cold coffee now but when it happened it blew my mind. The big 4 of Thrash Metal (Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax) in one room. Especially Dave Mustaine given that he has had vendettas against all of the other bands at some point during his career.

Edit - I can't seem to get beyond the grey box in the posted image thingy...so nevermind for now.

Tom Waits just playing a bit of harmonica accordion in his car.

Has there ever been a bad picture of Tom Waits?

You will never defeat Thelonious Monk at ping pong.

Keiji Haino just standing around is amazing. There are so many random pictures of that guy, I love it.

Isn't that a harpsichord and not a harmonica? Harmonica's the mouth one isn't it?

A harpischord is keyboard-type instrument, like a piano. Waits is playing an accordion, though. It is because in Danish, an accordion is called a harmonica and a harmonica is called a mouth-harmonica. Just a slip of the mind.

Stupid language.

I'm not very good with instruments so you still did better than me

[SRN]

It is one of those things I always mix up, though.

Fuck it, even though I might be the only one whom it interests, I am just going to dump a bunch of Keiji Haino photos.

Nazoranai (Keiji Haino, Oren Ambarchi and Stephen O'Malley) having a party backstage, after performing at Roskilde Festival. So annoyed that I missed their show.

Keiji Haino and Oren Ambarchi buying a vinyl record.

Keiji Haino being tiny and King Buzzo being big.

Keiji Haino poking the photographer.

Celebrating Keiji Haino's birthday.

Keiji Haino being Keiji Haino (and I am not sure if he is holding a tiny ice cream or whatever that is).

Keiji Haino with a tiny Keiji Haino doll.

I once watched Keiji Haino spend a good ten minutes looking through all the CDs on his own merchandise stand. He was wearing an overcoat, walking with a cane with a diamond skull top, and permanently surrounded by three terrifying Japanese women. Which is pretty much what you'd expect.

In 2010, I took 40-something photos of Keiji Haino. Somehow, these were the best ones;

I'm usually quite a good photographer, honest.

[SRN]

Oh shit, I forgot to post this one.

It is Keiji Haino putting a rose at Albert Ayler's grave. There is something really beautiful yet really bizarre about it.
