PSYCHOBUD photographs Waiting For The Accident

I took these photos of Psychobud at Radio City I believe around 1984/5. Saw them a bunch back then they were killer live, all great musicians. Their self titled LP is still great to listen to after all these years and I believe that back then they were ahead of their time, Waiting for the Accident and Sighs are my favorite songs on that album.

Middle Class @ The Cuckoos Nest and Frank Ruffino of China White at the Cuckoos Nest

I found a few more images I took with my first camera a Nikonos III underwater camera that I bought before I went to Australia. I was still trying to figure out how to not draw attention to the camera and shot without a flash, not so great but some neat ones every once in awhile! very difficult to get any decent results! I shot a lot of photos like this, of some great bands but the photos just turned out crap and I chucked them in the trash! so bummed I didnt keep them because in hindsight I probably could have salvaged a few.
