Vince~And yet, the child is the complete opposite of goth. She was sporting a fluorescent yellow tank top and turquoise purse the day she told me this. I chalk it up to “cool.”

E-Lo~I, too wore nothing but black band t-shirts to high school. Def Leppard (one for every day of the week and then some), Queen, Skid Row, Metallica, and of course, a WDVE t-shirt. And I wore black nailpolish on my LEFT HAND ONLY in emulation of Freddie Mercury. I might bring along my high school year books to Regan’s reception so we can drunkenly laugh at them in the parking lot afterwards.

ESC~That would kick ASS! I sense a project!!!

Michael~Since this generation wouldn’t know Husker Du or Rites of Spring if they were hit upside the head with them, I tend to agree with you. And hifey just confused the hell out of me.

Serra~I could never be goth, although I still have the urge to dye electric blue streaks into my hair. But all the heavy mascara and eyeshadow? Nope.

Esther~We’re ALL old. Don’t feel bad.

But that phase was over once I started smoking pot.

I think if I were 14 right now, I’d be soooo Goth. Cause black rules.

Leenie~Yeah, I seem to recall that somewhere in the middle of that long weekend there was an incident involving a van, Sloppy Meateaters, another car, and getting lost. But arrrr, it was fun, matey.
