This photoset was shot at the very tippy top floor of this venue in western, MA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I was there shooting, it was called “The Crystal Hardhat”. It was a dive biker bar that everyone told Me to stay away from…obviously I hope you know I went right there and befriended the owner and we are still friends today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, on the very top floor he showed Me around and it was this like, abandoned apartment that had been boarded up. A REALLY fucking cool and creepy place. I begged to be able to shoot there and over the course of a few years time, I got the chance to shoot there with some incredible photographers, including: Chris Addams and Bob Coulter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Today and tomorrow’s set’s are shot by “Under the Rum Tree Photography.” A NJ based female photographer who specializes in urban exploration photography and like, breaking into abandoned places and photographing them is kinda her thing. She’s a cool punk chick and we’ve done a few cool events together and she’s taken pictures at My parties and stuff. She came and spent a few days in Western MA with Me exploring train tracks, going to a punk show, drinking 40’s and shooting these pictures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hope you enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n[ngg src=”galleries” ids=”31″ display=”basic_thumbnail”]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
