Whoever administers the Dave Gahr photo archive should print up a book from these early Ministry photo sessions. They are priceless.

I hope someone here on the Prongs board is winning these Dave Gahr auctions on eBay! It’s been very “competitive” lately.

I remember not giving up even 1.
Yeah, these are great. Where do they keep coming from? Instagram?

The Dave Gahr photo archive on eBay has been putting the original photo negatives up for sale every few weeks. It appears Dave Gahr was hired to do the full photo shoot for the With Sympathy album sleeve and promo materials.

Is it okay if I share these photos on Instagram?

This is a great photo - presumably during the 1983 With Sympathy Tour - of the on stage setup. The two Roland synths (with Mark and Rob) and the Moog Source. Al on guitar. Not sure who the guest vocalist is. Missing from the photo would be Stevo (behind the drums) and Brad off to the right (either on bass or additional keys).

Wemp would probably know. It might be the lead singer of The Effigies (maybe singing the song Effigy, which would make sense, I guess.)
The guest vocalist was Effigies guitarist Earl Letiecq, I believe.

I should have added that this was from NMS '83 @ The Ritz in NYC.
