Photos aplenty

As a photographer, I love looking at other peoples' work. I started browsing around the 'net today looking at photos of Setz and the Cats. Thought I'd share some links (all caps are clickable):

Cats in 83 - great sunlight HERE
Brian in the mid 80's I'd guess. Love the flying water droplets HERE
2007 Cats concert gallery HERE
BSO Christmas show in my hometown HERE
BSO Christmas show 2007 with nice closeups and interesting critiques HERE

Of course, you never know what you'll find on flickr:
Hoodoo voodoo steak sandwich HERE
Good ol' 1983 HERE
Oh that HAIR
Like it was drawn for DISNEY
The profile we all know HERE

And the piece de resistance... a dude kneeling on a table choking a tattoo-less guy with a photoshopped Setz face HERE

So c'mon, lessee some of your faves!

Oooh some very awesome shots there Andi! Oh just so ya know, that 'like it was drawn for disney' picture was actually drawn by Jshea who is a member of this forum! Check out his topic HERE from when he first showed us the drawing!

As for photos I like - pretty much all of them rock.. anything with Brian in it is good to me, but in particular - Brian in kilts


Kid.

Ha! How 'bout that. Good stuff! Now what's this about kilts?!!

Haha! You've never seen Brian in a kilt? Or are you just wondering why I'm fascinated by Brian in a kilt?.... Well... I thought it was obvious


Kid.

What about this one? Happy summer!

How cool are these pics!!!!

Thanks for sharing these great pics with us.

The pics of Brian (mid 80ies) are they from the "The Knife feels like justice" period?

No, definitely not! Show me show me! I don't believe I've ever seen his legs, full stop!!

Brett, not sure about the mid 80s shots - Knife sounds about right though.

Just to be clear, none of these photos are mine- I've never had the pleasure to photograph Brian, though I'm hoping to one day! I did however get to shoot Lee and his band. Some of the best photos I've ever taken.

Some legs for you Andi!

Your Lee Rocker fotos Really rocks.

Well I've only got a couple of photos of Brian in a kilt... anyone with more please post them!








Kid.

Kid, those are great- but I note you still don't really see any leg. I think he looks quite dashing!

You know, no matter how old I am or ever have been, the early 80s Cats have always looked like adults to me. Until seeing that photo for the first time just now. OH MY GOD THEY HAD SUCH SKINNY, PALE, HAIRLESS LEGS!!!!

I'll never look at them the same again!! Not sure if I should thank you, sidelakebob

Haha yeah Andi, still not much leg in those kilt shots with him wearing those knee high socks.. I suppose it just leaves more to the imagination.

Agreed!


Kid maybe you can help but why the Marlin? Is this a photo shoot for something?

And with all this kilt talk brought to mind another question what is Brian's nationality/heritage?

I think I read somewhere that he caught that Marlin - it's called Brando or Marvin or something.. I don't know! But yeah, pretty sure Brian caught it.

Kilts and dead fish....? In the Setzer house this is known as "Saturday."

Those great photos of Brian in the rain "mid 80's" are from his
appearance at “FARM AID I” (Sept. 21, 1985 Univ. of Illinois, Champaign, IL)

He's backed by The Radiation Ranch, and you can see Tommy Byrnes in the background.

Tommy: is it Radiation Ranch, or The Radiation Ranch?

Ooby Dooby,

Sorry to interrupt the ogling of Brian's legs, but I have to ask a totally off-topic question:

Do any of you know anything about that unbelievable jukebox? Holy cow! It looks like it's from another planet or something!

Hi andi
Those pics are brill!!
Nice to meet you (on the forum)
All the best

Jup, That Wurlitzer was build by T.V. Jones for the 2007 BSO tour. From another planet? No, From the late 40s.

The jukebox in the fish-kilt photo is NOT the one TV Jones built for the Winter Wolfieland tour. It is, however, gorgeous, and should be in my living room.

Perhaps it was the inspiration behind the song Jukebox from Vavoom!

Man, I was bang on with my date estimation then!

Bear85, that was not ogling, that was respectful, intelligent discussion

carboncat, we already met over in that other thread HERE, remember? I know, hard to keep everyone straight, I have that problem too

Now, back to the topic at hand: who has cool Setzer/Cats photos to share??!?!

Great pics thanks! I'll be on the lookout for more leggy shots.

Does anyone (Tommy?) happen to know who the photographer was on this session, or does anyone (Tommy?) have any other images from it? I'm pretty certain this'd be 1981, and very likely somewhere around October when the Cats made their "Fridays" appearance. Thanks!!
