"Let It Kill You" San Francisco Premiere Photos
12/21/2023
Lucky audiences at The City's Roxie Theater got a sneak peek of the first pack of episodes from Ben McQueen’s new Let It Kill You web series. Get in on the action with all the red-carpet attendees.
The historic Roxie Theater, located at the infamous intersection of 16th and Sorry For 'Em
Out front, we find the men who made it happen, Trevar Cushing and Ben McQueen
Mandatory photo with the better half, McQueen and Clair Abplanalp
Lovey-dovey vibes from friends and well-wishers
Hungry young lensman Izzy Garcia gets it in before the show starts
Thrasher's Apparel Marketing Manager, the tall, dark and highly competent Jake Alan, seen here with Gabe and his special company Chloe
Lots of tats and friendly faces
Jill, Leia and Clair. The ladies were stoked and ready to marvel at the night’s skate-based artistry
Pretty good turnout for a rainy Monday, and the doors hadn't even opened yet
Thomas from DLX shop along with Alex Guibert and the one they call Seegull
Ben and Trevar were pumped to get a shot with ace photographer and NHS company man Eric Palozzolo
You already know Steffan wouldn’t miss that Mike Gigliotti episode
Ryan Townley—ripper, resinator and one of the featured players in tonight’s production sandwiched between the creators
Prestigious artists everywhere you turn, Thrasher’s Senior Designer Alán González with Michelle "Meng" Nguyen and Jeff Larrimore
Everyone had to get a picture with Ben, for instance, Alicia Sherwood, Alison Winter and Kilowatt kingpin Rick Eusey
Townley with his old Orange County pal and this month’s coverboy, Jeff Carlyle
One last photo op with the good homies before we go inside. From left to right we've got a photobomber, Laura Altdorffer, Trevar Cushing, Natalie Cappetta, Christian Hicks, John Campbell and Ben McQueen
We all know how theaters make their money
Fuck it, everyone's on the list tonight
Popcorn and bevs on deck
Superfans up front
All smiles. Love to see it
These guys are ready for it
Nina Dias and Jake Wolbert with Trevar Cushing
High Speed in the house! Video guy Brendan Bill and our new Junior Accounting Executive Kevin Braun with their respective partners Shelby and Zoee
Alright, enough crowd work, let's get this show rolling
But first, a few words from the man of the hour
Good stuff!
And the scene spills out onto 16th street
Then directly across the street to Kilowatt for the afterparty hosted by DJ Pretty Ricky
Slingin’ slices! Eric and Evtilson from Outta Sight Pizza held it down
Trevar wanted to get a back-focused NHS reunion pic. Nailed it with Pizzle, Trevar, Executive Kev and Jereme Knibbs
I took that as my cue to call it a night. Thanks to the Roxie Theater, Kilowatt and Outta Sight Pizza for a great evening. Congrats to Ben and Trevar and stay tuned for Let it Kill You, coming to a computer screen near you
