This was found in a trove of personal photos that I acquired at Swap-O-Rama in Chicago and began posting at the end of April of this year. Seeing this on the top of the pile led me to buy an entire box of someone’s life but none of the other photos were quite as amazing as this one. No date but probably from the late 1960s or early 1970s based on other photos that were with it. More than anything, I want to hear this photograph and then buy it on vinyl. Whatever sounds could possibly be coming from this situation, they have got to be gnarly, freaked out, and more than a little drunk.  If you are this person and this and other photos and papers somehow got away from you, please contact me. More found photos on Public Collectors here.

A photo dated February, 1970 that must have been taken at a science fair. Make no mistake: if I ever start a band, that band will be named The Metabolistic Cockroaches.
