Images from the Archives - Round 1





ALL IMAGES (C) Jeffrey Snyder
All Images shot with some Nikon Body, prob my old EL2 & a 70-150 E on Ektachrome Film

Found myself plugging in a scanner that I hadn't seen in years...Low & behold it still worked, tho had to download drivers, & get an adapter to be able to plug it into the iMac...

So over time I'll be posting some of my collection of images from the past.

Today I begin with Bruce Springsteen. Had this box of slides on my desk for ages, but hadn't really look at them. Most of these that I'm posting are from the November 1978 at the Capital Center in Landover, MD, which is now rubble. The image of Bruce in the striped shirt is also from the CC, but, a few years later. Keep in mind that these were shot on shitty Ektachrome, hand held, some with the camera over my head, hence the blur...Even a bit blurry, I look at these and I can remember every second of these shows, and hear them. There's nothing quite like being up by the stage when the E Street Band is rockin it, & for many of us, we still crave that feeling, even 32 years later

Hope you enjoy....Round 2 to follow soon

Very nice. :) My first Springsteen show was in September '78 and you are absolutely right about still craving that feeling. We are all a little older now but the E Street Band still rocks it like nobody else, for sure. Thanks for sharing these!
