Excellent work Dr Cheese. I'm sure the ladies on here will be very impressed by your enormous rocks.

I have a friend who is a rock photographer basically just starting out. I told him it's a matter of hooking up with the right band at the right time--same thing with being a journalist.

Corbijn def got just the right gigs at just the right time. I wish he liked his Bunnymen shots more.

Unfortuneately, people think it's just about having a camera. It's not. You've gotta have an eye for it. There are so many bad photos now, it's not even funny. Interestingly, Les could have done well as a photographer from the shots I've seen. Will's taken some really nice ones lately.

Check out Phillippe Carly. Lots of early 80s bands.
