subject: Punk (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798218804923)

Subject: PUNK (Second Edition) is my All Access Pass into the heart of punk rock. It's three decades solid of my life with a camera in hand - sneaking into shows with a fake I.D., being a published journalist as a young teenager, photographing legends, and interviewing and documenting the people and nights that shaped a culture.

I started out as a kid with a film camera and a dream: to photograph The Ramones. In 1993, I was at the Hong Kong Café, and shortly after The Showcase Theatre, already a published photographer and writer. By 1995, my dream came true. I was standing in front of my heroes, photographing and interviewing the band that first made me fall in love with music.

This book pulls together those early days and everything that came after - the sweat-soaked clubs, the chaos, the friendships, the losses, and the music that kept going. You'll see never-before-published photos of X, The Ramones, Dee Dee Ramone, The Dickies, The Lunachicks, FEAR, NOFX, Fishbone, Sick Of It All, and so much more.

Subject: PUNK (Second Edition) isn't just a collection of photos - it's my story, it's blood, sweat and so many tears I've shed to make this book a reality, and it's punk's story too. This book is for anyone who has a dream and is determined to make that dream a reality. Anything is possible. Even with a broken camera, as was the case in some of my most iconic work featured in museums and books today.
