Nick Cave has been maintaining the image of the well -off melancholist for many years, which is able to process grief into beguiling songs. He has long been behind the dark years, no appearance without a suit.
As early as 1990, at the time of his album “The Good Son”, Cave had changed his punk image and began to give himself as a guilty priest. The (great) album dominated the (great) album. In short: a withdrawal from self -destruction.
And how do you imagine this ascetic cave? At least not when playing football. But that’s exactly how it was photographed on June 4, 1990.
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds at Pinkpop
That day the singer played with his Bad Seeds at Pink In the Netherlands before his performance, a well-kept round football in the backstage area of the festival site in Landgraaf.
Photographer Gie Knaeps managed to show Cave away from the stage in an unusually relaxed moment. Today it is probably unimaginable to see him like this. On the other hand, Cave has been enjoying ceramic art for some time.
