WAIT UNTIL DARK

Last night my head fell off in the front row of Converge.
There were people flying right and left.
Microphones were lost in the crowd and or destroyed.
Incredible new songs were shared.
And they opened with Jane Doe.
Last night was my 8th time seeing Converge. They have never failed to put on the best show.
I managed to get this picture during the fury.
Before Disneyland, Six Flags and Sea World, there was Coney Island. With its long list of pleasures — the beach, the boardwalk, the roller coasters and the hot dogs — this strip of seashore at the foot of Brooklyn, N.Y., has provided affordable fun and amusement for millions of people for more than a century. And one person clearly enchanted by the oasis of fun is renowned photographer Harvey Stein, whose new book, Coney Island 40 Years, is full of colorful characters (such as the photo above) he’s encountered there over the past four decades. Stein spoke to LIFE.com about his collection of striking black-and-white pictures, sharing stories and personal insights into an “iconic American place.”
