Ergo:
I also saw a great talk moderated by Dave Olson on rock ‘n roll photography featuring Kris Krug and Bev Davies. Both of Kris and Bev take fantastic pictures (that you should really take a look at) but, in particular, some of Dev Davies’ early pictures (there are some in a Flickr set here) are must see if you’re a fan of early ’80’s punk and hardcore. Bev was basically the only one taking pictures at these shows in Vancouver in the early ’80’s and her collection of shots of DOA, The Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, The Adolescents, Gang of Four, Duff McKagan-era Fastbacks (and on and on and on) are amazing. You may have seen her photography in the punk rock calendar that Nardwuar put together a couple years ago—all the photos in the calendar are her work.
Thanks to the Northern Voice organizers for putting together such a great program!
As an update, Dave posted his slides from the photo talk here. They’re definitely worth seeing. Great shots form both photographers.
