Shooting a diy house show tonight, my tried and true, my ride or die, my always favorite shows are the grimy basements and garages and living rooms of the punks who care enough about the scene to put it right in their homes. This shot is from last weekend; polymallcops, one of the Midwest's GREATEST punk bands, ripping it up at dmlift, one of the last great small clubs in Des Moines for an 8035musicfest after party, keeping that diy spirit alive while we're losing small venues left and right across the country. Go see a show at a local dive/house venue/small club this weekend and buy the band's merch! And go stream polymallcops record MANIC FEVER on the way there!! 🥵 📸 alyssaleicht . . . . . #thephotoladies #tpl2023 #polymallcops #gregwheelerandthepolymallcops #thelift #dmlift #iowa #desmoines #midwestmusicphotographer #iowamusicphotographer #iowaconcertphotographer #concertphotographer #musicphotography #alyssaleicht #desmoinesphotographer #smallvenue
