A photograph of Sylvain Sylvain (formerly of the NY Dolls) performing solo at Max's Kansas City in the late 1970's. He was one of ten bands performing that night to raise money to help Jackie Wilson, who was in the hospital.
Closest I've come to photographing royalty. Sylvain Sylvain performing solo at Max's Kansas City in the late 70s. I was there to shoot a friend in another band. #believeinfilm #eastcoastkin #rockandroll #punkrock #nydolls #maxskansascity #analogphotography #tri-x #rockmusic #blackandwhitephotography

Little treat for the late night punks. I wish I had a time machine and could go back to Max’s Kansas City Aug 1973.
Fren sent this as a pick me up and it picked me up real good. 💖💖💖 Had to set it to music.
