Rockstars wearing t-shirts of bands who, um, ‘influenced’ them

While I don’t agree with all of the comparisons—I’d expect to see Tom Petty or Lou Reed-circa Loaded sporting a Strokes tee more than the Lizard King—these spoof images by Billy Butcher are damned amusing. I wished he would have taken this a lot further…

This is a series that reverses the natural course of pop culture hierarchy - the influencer will sport the shirt of the influenced - completely messing with space time continuum and rising the question:

Bands and musicians that became hugely influential in music history - would they, when alive or in an early stage of their careers, support the new acts that came decades after inspired by their own legacy?

David Bowie and Ronnie Spector.
 
Jim Laspesa is a musician and hardcore rock and roll archivist who has been a source for quite a few of my groovier posts here on Dangerous Minds. Well, Jim has done it again. He’s been sharing some photos on his Facebook page that he came across a few years ago at a swap meet in Pasadena, California. These uncredited photos capture some of rock’s biggest stars at the zenith of their celestial ascent.

A case of somebody (or somebodies) being in the right place at the right time. Amateur, pro? Who knows?
