Probable members of the band Russians (Россияне) set up various instruments and equipment such as lights, amps, and microphones on stage, Crimea, 1982. Empty bleacher-style benches in an auditorium stretch across the foreground. They taper downward as they approach the stage in the mid-ground. Two individuals are seated, with backs to the camera, in the first row; they are off-center to the right. Another individual passes in front of them. Beyond them, a few band members are on stage. A long-haired figure strums a guitar; he stands off-center to the left. Two more individuals walk across the stage to the right of him. A fourth person on stage stacks amps along the left edge. A large, stretched screen occupies the background. Photograph in black sleeve.
