paul t Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 If anyone here is interested in alternative music, Andy Warhol's Factory, and general rock'n'roll carnage, you might want to check out my website,<a href="http://www.trynka.net/Site/Welcome.html">www.trynka.com</a> . Click on 'New York' to get to the first photos. <p>I make no claim whatsoever that any of this is photographic art, but many of these people are intriguing subjects. Danny Fields, for instance, was the man who hung with Andy Warhol, helped break the Doors, and discovered bands like the Stooges and The Ramones. Leee Childers was another figure on the Max's Kansas City scene who ended up looking after David Bowie, and the main subject of my website, Iggy Pop. <p>Incidentally, this was assembled using Apple iWeb, a brilliant package considering it's free, running on a G4 that I found abandoned in the street. You might have heard that iWeb doesn't interface well with a non .Mac server, but with the right FTP program - CaptainFTP, which is also available free - it works a treat...

jtk Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Those elderly former pop stars never were "alternative." Something more genuine: http://www.patjohnson.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andre_harrison Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 ? Rob Zombie more "alternative' than Iggy Pop? Er, yeah, right... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtk Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Iggy isn't "alternative," he's an elderly former pop star. There's no reason to write at length about nonentities. Let's see the Iggy photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtk Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I know Iggy was once significant to some demographics, just as Brittany Spears was. Significance is significance, but just how are Iggy or Bowie or Warhol or Ramone "alternative", given that they still have massive publicity machines? And what does this have to do with Leicas or photography? In fact, I first heard about Iggy from Pat Johnson. That's one reason I provided his link.

bds1 Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 sorry John Pat's pictures do nothing at all for me, but these day access is so restricted and PR controlled. For rock photography Jim Marshall has been the man for me.... http://www.jimmarshallvault.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
