The latest entry to the Smithsonian is an online site about rock and roll. The site launched on December 1, 2015 with the goal of building the world's greatest collection of rock and roll photos. They're asking the public to go through their attics, basements, boxes, drawers, digital cameras, photo albums, cell phones, cloud, photo upload sites, and computer hard drives for pictures that show the greatest moments in the history of rock ’n’ roll. The ultimate plan is to publish a book in the fall of 2017 illustrating rock 'n' roll like never before with shots from clubs, concerts, festivals, and more.
Photos can be submitted now. Each month, the Smithsonian or special guests will choose the best photos. The site will also feature select photos and text from rock artists, band managers, photographers and more sharing their favorite photos and stories.
Featured entries to start include shots of Bruce Springsteen, Blondie, Keith Richards, Jack White, Queen, and CBGBs.
