Teenage Head's exhibit at Beckett Fine Art in Hamilton opens September 5th and runs through September 23rd
As part of gallery owner Tom Beckett's Love Hamilton! celebration of the Steel City art and music, Hamilton's Beckett Fine Art will be showing rarely seen Teenage Head photos, posters, art work and related memorabilia from the band's own private collection. Hopefully we'll finally get to see those platform shoes that Steve Mahon was making in wood shop while attending Westdale Secondary School. My original pencil sketch of Teenage Head frontman Frankie Venom for the cover of the University of Waterloo student newspaper Imprint from 1980 probably won't be part of the exhibition but you can see it below. Beckett Fine Art (196 Locke St. S, Hamilton) is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm. The exhibit is free. For more information, check out the Beckett Fine Art site right here.
It's been 43 years since Teenage Head rocked Heatwave back in 1980... get a copy of their performance on vinyl right here.
