I wound up reaching out to Kevin Jones, since word had gotten around to me that he might have a few photos. As it turns out, my quarry was not among those pictured, which left both of us wondering who, exactly, is in these photographs. The pictures were taken in February of ‘84 at an unknown venue. According to Jones the kids are an extremely young Junk Yard Band, and the woman in the “Bomb Squad” t-shirt is likely from a group called Trinidad Bomb Squad. But the guys in the devil-costumes and space-boots? Unknown.

Photos after the jump….
