A black and white photograph of Run-DMC onstage performing at UIC Pavilion. DMC (left) and Run (right) are pictured standing on stage, both wearing black brimmed hats with dark leather jackets and pants. Run holds a microphone to his mouth in his proper right hand, his proper left hand on his chest. DMC has both arms down at his sides, a microphone in his proper left hand, which is in motion. Behind them is a rectangular folding table with turntables and other equipment. A figure (Jam Master Jay) is just barely visible standing at the table behind Run. A large graphic backdrop is in the background. The photographer's signature [Raymond Boyd] is in black ink at the bottom right corner under the image. On the verso, an inscription by Bill Adler reads [By Raymond Boyd].
