The Story: 

Ari Lehman is the keytar hero that kickstarted behind a billion dollar brand. Ari is best known for his iconic role as the first Jason Voorhees in the classic  horror film "Friday the 13th" (1980). As a child actor, Ari made a memorable appearance in the film's final scene, emerging from the icy waters of Crystal Lake, a moment that has since become legendary in horror film history.

This image was taken at one of the best dive bars in the country, The Melody Inn in Indianapolis, IN. Every Saturday since 2004, The Melody Inn has hosted "Punk Rock Night", supporting it's local scene of willfully different misfits.
