Contributor Limelight Bob Plumb Writer/Photographer Bob Plumb is no stranger to the SLUG Mag world, and we here at the magazine are proud to announce his triumphant return to the SLUG crew. After climbing the charts among Transworld’s list of up-and-coming photogra- phers, touring extensively, and all-around progression with his photos, Mr. Plumb decided it was about time to get back to his roots and become locally involved one more time. This month, Bobby’s work features a long-awaited four-page spread covering James Atkin, and you can expect a shit ton of awesome content from him in the upcoming months chronicling travels, homies and more importantly, his photo- graphic skills. Welcome home, Bob. 4 SaltLakeUnderGround SaltLakeUnderGround 5 know if you really are an asshole?
