Looking back

Chatting online about photos I have in my collection. Some are the only record of certain bands and performance artists.

So many people, certain they were about to become huge stars, refused to let their performances be recorded or even written about. Oddly enough, this was very counter-intuitive. Without an existing contract or publisher, all it did was prevent anyone from hearing about them or for them to have any record of those days now. There were some bands and performance artists who had girlfriend "managers" how would be very nasty to anyone with a camera or taking notes. Not that that happened with your performances. But it happened with a lot.
