R.I.P. Adam MCA Yauch. I still remember my photoshooting with the beastie boys very well, it was in 92. we all had a big cold and going outside was a nightmare, it was a grim day in hamburg. but the gig at the markthalle was so full of energy, they made me forget how shit I felt. damn, this get`s my tears out now… xx k.

I start the year with one of my fave pictures ever, the jesus and mary chain on the roof of the warner music london building in 92`I think it was. maybe even earlier. the days before I took a live picture of the band ride, which I mentioned here before, but something happened to the filmroll, it got stuck… double exposure madness. when I first saw it I was absolutely shocked to death, but nowadays I just really love it. fits perfectly to the sound of the mary chain`s. here one of my fave songs ever teenage lust live on mtv. brilliant! xx k.
