For this new column, Michelle Groskopf, a Los Angeles based photographer, will pay tribute to people who count music as one of their passions, regardless of their level of success. This will include musicians, fans, performers, techy folk, and in the case of this first one, cover bands.
Up until last weekend I had no idea what a swap meet was (I'm an east coast Canadian Jew). Some friends invited me to go to the Santa Fe Springs Swap Meet on the outskirts of LA. It's known primarily for a solid food court, Mexican biker gangs, Chola goths, and weekly tribute band performances. Someone on Yelp praised its selection of cheap skinny jeans in large sizes."Come for the bargains, stay for the fun," screams their electronic billboard strategically placed along the highway.In answer to your question Armando Cisneros (as Gene Simmons): Are You Ready To Rock Santa Fe Springs Swap Meet?"Damn right I'm ready. Right after I demolish this corndog."Check out more of Michelle's work at dailystreet.tumblr.com And to see more of Gods of Thunder, go to www.gotkisstribute.com
