Bill Daniel and I are throwing a one-night photo show/zine release this Sunday, December 4th, with live music, and a screening of Who is Bozo Texino?

Raw Deal #13
Joey Alone

The stories that make up the autobiographical adventure Raw Deal are the kind that are acquired through life experience, personal education, self-motivation, living off-the-grid, passion, failure, and observing with questioning eyes the world and the community called home. It is packed with numerous noteworthy punch lines only a witty linguistics railroader could muddle out. These are stories of solidarity and growing pains as a student brakeman on the railroad, historical and educational references of Bay Area history, and most of all, love for ecology with well-researched, insightful perspectives that will likely reconnect you, even just for a brief moment, with nature. Obtaining one of these gems may be difficult; a chance encounter with Joey along the tracks may be your only opportunity.

I often get emails from people asking who took a certain picture or where it came from. All the pictures on this website are originally from here, aka “Original Content”, aka “No reblog regurgitation.” I thought it was obvious, I guess not.

Chris MCcaw @ Steven Wirtz. Long exposure photographs where the sun burns directly onto the photo paper. Photos don’t do this unique process justice, so this is all you get.

I made two appointments to view the current show at Pier 24, however failed to remember both times. Third time was a charm and I revisited the exhibition again the day after. To summarize, if you have any interest in photography or San Francisco history this is a healthy offering. Pier 24 is completely free of charge and should be taken full advantage of. Make a visit, or several. This may explain the excessive amount of photos below; more than a quick summary, but in no way represents the shows magnitude.

Archival mugshot photographs from 1915 acquired from the SFPD!

Not a halloween costume. Blacked out, picking a fight, resulting in bloody boxer cut over eyebrow. Ross smiles it off.

I think this an old Remio zine? Love how blown out everything is.

I interviewed Read More Books for a 10 page feature. Remember the review of Read More’s zine?

Feeling confident in the way this interview turned out! Pick up a copy to read and see the rest.
