but man, you should have moved.

Woulda, shoulda, coulda, bro. There's stories surrounding that too, but another time maybe.



I did enjoy me some of them dive gigs. Good times were sometimes had.

Five finger death punch

I agree with all of this.

I once thought as you do. I was corrected when someone showed me these images:

Those dudes are old as fuck and can do what they want. We're talking retarded bar bands. I have to stare at your ass for an hour try and make yourself look presentable and not like a slob.

Um...what kind of bars do you go to?

Lol exactly

Metal bands and camo shorts are an exception.

Exotic skin cowboy boots are a must on stage.

I wear mine all over. Even with shorts on.

No drunk women on my microphone when the band is playing.

Yeah it's an old school metal thing. When I was growing up a lot of bands did that, then in late 80's/early 90's it became taboo for some reason...

but yeah...

Not IMO. Metal bands are THE worst offenders out there. Then again the only "metal head" I've ever met who had any kind of fashion sense is Ansley.

PCU changed the rules.




Gutter was schooled by Droz and so the rule was changed.



Hell, Metallica should wear their own shirts these days... And change their band name.

What if we meet in the middle and go for camo clam diggers?

I agree but they all seem to accept it. I just skip their shows entirely because their music blows.





And Ansley does indeed write the rules on metal fashion. Dude has it right.

We really are the same person aren't we?!?

And even he is thinking about playing rock 'n roll now!!!

Fucker has rad acoustics and a new Tele. His music taste is catching up quick

Metal bands should wear color coordinated pin-striped suits on stage. With Fedoras.

Or Tuxedos. In hideous wedding pale blue. Or fifties doo-wop band yellow.

Shit. I started that as a joke and now I kinda wanna see it.

I knew it was gonna happen when he cut his hair!

I'm waiting until he bails on the cobra rig and gets a proper Les Paul and vintage Marshall.


Knowing his perfectionist ass it would be a spooge worthy R9 and a real deal plexi

Yep. And he'd sound glorious through it too.

Stage rules are simple:

If any band member is wearing camo cargo shorts, quit the the band.
If any band member has a Dime guitar, quit the band.
If any band member has a Tool tattoo, quit the band.
If any band member is a libertarian, quit the band.
If any band member plays in flip-flops, quit the band
If any band member is playing through a Genz Benz El Diablo, quit the band.
If any band member asks/begs for shots while on stage, quit the band.

Pretty much this. Andy Bastard was definitely guilty of that last one which I'm guessing is partly your inspiration for listing it.

In all srsnss; do you like any metal bands at all? I know you are ixnay on the cock rock; but have you not witnessed the majesty that is a live heavy metal concert? Go to the right one and shit is transcendent. Not the fashion lol; but the experience for sure

Asking for booze on stage is about as classy as Honey Boo-Boo MCing a NASCAR race Florida.

any member still posts on HC, quit band
