Photos from my punk years

Most of the photos were taken between 1977 and 1980 at either:

The Rat in Boston or

CBGB in New York City

The Cars at an early gig at the Rat... 1978

Mission of Burma at an early gig in 1980. I think photo was taken at the Underground, an old laundromat that was converted into a tiny music club on Commonwealth Ave. near Boston University. I saw Joy Division at the Underground who had rechristened themselves as New Order after Ian Curtis committed suicide on a few weeks before their first American tour.
