So!
What follows is a passion project I've been harboring for the better part of I'd say a dozen years or so. Way it happened was that I discovered some "interesting" Rocky photos
waaaay back in the day (think 2002), and as soon as I learned what "rightclick/save" was, I started stockpiling them. At some point in 2005 I stashed away all my "win" on a burned dvd & promptly forgot about it once I became aware that external hard drives were a thing.
Then I joined the military, got deployed to Iraq in 2011, where I found OCC (yes, I was literally at Camp Ramadi when I became aware of this website & it didn't take long for me to become a member) and ETS'd in 2013. Shortly after that, my household goods went into storage and, for reasons I'd prefer not to revisit here, I didn't get that stuff back until early 2022.
In between all that time, it didn't take long for me to realize that I had some good, albeit primitive, blotchy & poorly shot but still good, Rocky-related stuff that I haven't seen on here and I vowed at some point to share what I'd collected all those years ago with the good folks of OCC. Enter that burned dvd with all my win. I collated & consolidated everything I had on that disk & was just waiting for when I had the time & whatnot to commit to this project. Well, that time is now.
What follows is all the Rocky Horror nudity I'd been collecting since like 2002-ish & stashed away three years later. In case anyone cares (or is even reading this), I opted to post all this stuff in a pre-existing thread rather than create my own because there might be people who would like the stuff that's come before my post here but haven't seen it since this thread is
really fuckin' old. And since there's already a thread for stuff like this, why clutter the board with a new one? Likes are cool, but I'm not that desperate for them
Anyways, I'm going to post these as I have them saved, and you'll no doubt notice I have my own "naming conventions" for files I keep. Sometimes the name of the file betrays the location or circumstances of the photo/s. For instance, in summer of 2003 iirc, the Portland, Or cast did the first of their (what I was led to believe at the time but have no way to confirm how long it lasted) semi-annual "18+ Night" special performances, where they checked IDs of people coming in and wardrobe for the cast was merely a "suggestion" (ie: no dress code but whatever you want, or don't want). Unfortunately I was still affiliated with the military the weekend these photos were taken and had an exercise I couldn't get out of, and I
really wanted to go to that show. I was told by friends that
did attend that cameras in the audience were outlawed (2002 = before cellphone cameras) but a couple folks on the cast had cameras & documented it for posterity, and a few wound up on the cast website*. These photos are grainy, don't highlight the exposed parts (they're often off in the corner, out of focus, etc) and aren't that big, as digital photos from that time tended not to be. But they're legit.
There are a few photos from Barely Legal, the vaunted cast from Long Beach, Ca. Back in those days, they had a more relaxed dress code than most casts did & they weren't afraid to post the results on their website. Since around 2006 or so it's been pretty standard to what's going on now with what seems like EVERY cast, where the most you can hope for is pasties. As opposed to the photo titled "Last Show at UC", which for the record was the very first time I'd seen any FF stuff from a Rocky cast.
The three photos titled "Strip off", the blonde chick on the right, I swear I've always thought she looked like Rosanna Arquette, just a much-less-well-endowed Rosanna Arquette...
There are also several photos from a collection that came out of Atlanta. I've mentioned them in one of these Rocky threads before, their cast name was N9 and these photos came from a show they did at some sci-fi convention. The nice thing is, because it was a convention and not at a theater, they too had carte blanche as far as their dress code was concerned. This particular show, I'm not sure if the entire cast was N9 or if N9 collaborated with another local cast for the show, but they had a different take than I've ever seen before. Every role as it was happening had two performers, sometimes standing right next to one another. One of these as "playing it straight" (meaning stock, dressed like like as standard usual night at Rocky) and the other was evocative of "aliens from outer space". This is exemplified by the Riff & Magenta doing the "alien" take at the end of the movie, where they're both covered in light colored makeup with green veins painted all over their bodies. The nice thing here is that Magenta is wearing the same thing Riff is: underwear bottoms.
Lastly, there are several photos from some early shows from Queerios, the cast from Austin, Tx. Some of these shots have been posted here before, so those may not exactly be "new". But they're good, so make of that what you will.
One final note: the photo of the Asian girl standing on a brown stage flashing the crowd. This was taken in Portland, Or (but not on the night I described above), and the guy on the left holding the mike dressed as Eddie is a good friend of mine. So after I tell him what I'm doing here with this collection, he'll hopefully be happy to learn he's finally gonna be famous!
Now that the novel is finished, enjoy!

MODERATOR'S NOTE
These photos I'm speaking of have a watermark of the cast website on them. I've been all over that cast's online footprint for literally two decades now, and since I initially downloaded them I haven't even seen a single mention of this specific event, never mind any of the photos I'm including here. If you must delete these due to a strict interpretation of the "no watermark" rule, so be it. But my hope is that you'll leave these as they are; these photos have been long-forgotten for over 20 years, and since I grabbed these, I've not found anything on any of their websites that comes remotely close to NSFW. And even then, these images are pretty tame but for the fact that I knew what to look for at the time and was lucky/persistent enough to find them.
