Scenes from the Chumps' farewell show @Legendary White Swan.
City Life, Dead Space, Savage Pinks and the Slizz came along for the ride.
The photos and (especially) the videos are out of focus, shaky and scruffy...but it was impossible for me to stand still.
I hope that despite the technical shortcomings, you'll get a sense of what an insanely good night of rock and roll that was.
The Chumps kicked it out to a packed house for their last show. One of the best nights of my life...
The Chumps are dead... Long live THE CHUMPS!!!

The Book of Chumps
This is a slideshow of the "Book of Chumps", a zine that Richard Lynn and I put together for The Chumps, one of the greatest rock and roll bands of all time, on the occasion of their last show (on June 14, 2013 at the Legendary White Swan).
We printed 60 copies of the zine on 11" x 17" paper in half-fold format. There are some photos that are sideways, but since that's how they were formatted on the zine, I decided not to change the orientation for the slideshow.
