It also had the honor having "Talk Dirty To Me" played on it.

Last time I opened up the case, there was a tampon in the gear pocket.

if there was a god, the internet would have a video of me grumpily covering "you really got me" at a talent show with that bass, a blue wool gold nautical buttoned trenchcoat and a jesus jones hat with a flipped brim as was the style of the day, while our stand in lead singer rocked out into a wireless mic that he had forgotten to turn on.

PROOF: THERE IS NO GOD

You know I have this on DVD right

haha

rox high school pics are an ilx national treasure

^^

you guys are all the coolest, and I really mean that

also, god willing, DJP is going to share that dvd

feel like it would make a superior autoreplace for r@ce war

DYING that jaymc sang anything goes at a talent show

pplains is that a mako bass? bc I still have one.

It's something called a Gremlin. Think it may have had 18 frets.

Should I post a link to jjjusten's high school band's performance in the 1991 talent show to ILX?

v v important

My first bass - I still have it - is some weird shitty Japanese thing called a Westone? It used to belong to a Christian heavy metal band :D

my only high school bf formed a Christian metal band - he is still in it o_O

*tera, you look so cute. like your friend in the cure shirt.

js, you look just like this guy I knew who played drums in the local band scene when I was in hs. influences? smashing pumpkins and dream theater.

Ha! Thanks that was a bad perm my grandmother insisted I have. Took years for hair to repair. I was in touch with both those guys for decades.

I was 13 or 14 in this pic – in my most Mormoniest clothes (a brown corduroy overalls dress). Also totally obsessed with The Bell Jar. They were doing Halloween gore makeup at a church party. I asked the lady if she could give me slit wrists. She paused and said, "You have to promise not to do it. I had a friend who died that way." But she delivered.

Come home: "Mom! Dad! Can you take a picture of my Halloween makeup?!" Make sure not to smile in the photo. It made everyone at church and at home pretty uncomfortable. That lady did do an unsettlingly good job with the blood rivulets.

cute/subversive!

Calculated!

dude holy shit!

Amazing

ankle length!

It is hilarious how you look 10 years old in that picture. Nice work, my fundamentalist sister.
