This Saturday at the Hideout, be sure not to miss The Eternals with On You. Below, a live shot of dynamic Eternals vocalist Damon Locks, and a publicity photo of On You’s Stan Wood and Jamie Drier (it was Stan and Jamie’s inspired idea to parody Annie Leibovitz’s John and Yoko Rolling Stone cover).

Way back in 1982, fresh out of high school, I brought my Nikkormat to suburban Chicago bar Haymakers to see the brilliant soul/funk/psychedelic hitmaker, Sly Stone. Notorious for not showing up to gigs, fortunately he made it to the show that night, and I shot a couple rolls of Kodacolor, beginning my music photography career. He’ll be back in Chicago next month.
