DEGROSS PUNK PHOTOGRAPHY

DEDICATED TO THE UNDERGROUND

About Me

I've been dedicated to the Minnesota punk scene for many years, I have recently been active in promoting/booking touring bands, and I thought "I own a camera, and am fairly good at taking pictures. Why don't I start documenting these shows?" and so I did.
My photos/interviews have been featured in the magazines LOUDFASTRULES, AMP, HAILS & HORNS, and ROCKSOUND. Also on numerous myspaces, websites, and cds.
This issue contains the interview I did with The Eighty Sixed, and a photo spread of my Whiskey Rebels & Pressure Point pictures.
This issue contains a photo spread of THE MISFITS I did.
This issue has a photo of the Street Dogs I took in it. There was a mix up, and my name wasn't credited, but we have that all fixed now.
This issue contains a photo of the Street Dogs that I took.
PLEASE SUPPORT AMP, LOUD FAST RULES & HAILS AND HORNS.
