Kim Johnson
Kim Johnson was part of the SHOWCO crew from 1974 to 1980, right in the middle of an era when live touring was evolving fast—and the crew behind the scenes made the impossible look easy. Kim worked with an incredible lineup of artists including The Who (’76), Wings Over America, The Band, Marvin Gaye, Art Garfunkel, Heart, Led Zeppelin (’77), The Rolling Stones, Black Sabbath, Van Halen, and Willie Nelson.
The gallery below features some of Kim’s contributions to the archive. If you toured with Kim (or have a photo, pass, or story), I’d love to add it to his alumni record.
