Casey Lindstrom
Talented singer/songwriter/guitarist not to mention Joanie's brother.
The first picture is backstage at the Boston Garden when the New Models opened for The Cars. Then there are pictures of Casey when some Narcissus assholes tried to take the beers he was bringing to Joanie's party and cut him with a bottle. He went to the emergency room then to the party!
