Hooooooooooooly shit.

Dude, I don't even think that I have that photo. Abosolutely fucking bananas.

That photo was taken about 1.5 years before my life exploded, I failed out of university and decided to be a pro skier.

Failed at that, ended up here.

Is that in Central somewhere or something like that? Where did you find that photo?

That was my shit back then. I actually had super long hair and was mega grunge for most of highschool, but I cut it all off to shock the fuck out of people.

The frosted tips were just slightly on the other side of when I had a 6-month goth phase.

So I went like mega grunge long hair - ultra goth - photo you see there.

I was confused in high school.

Awesome!

Is Mrs. Wharton still there? If she is, go tell her that Doug Bishop says hello. If she doesn't remember me, tell her that I was the music council co-president with Jack Spence, who during their election campaign re-wrote the rules on the level of promotion that was allowed, including a repeater tape hidden in the ceiling outside the music room that said 'vote for Doug and Jack' on repeat 24/7.

That place was amazing.

Beauty. I tried adding her on FB but I got the sense that she didn't remember me.

Jack and I did some pretty fucked up stuff in our reign. Of course, maybe teachers see that all the time.

so does this mean NS has it's roots in frosted tips? Because if so, I'm all about changing the theme of this website to that.

Back then that shit was edgy and cool. You only had frosted tips if you had bleached the shit out of your hair and were just too lazy to re-do it or cut off the other stuff. I used to dye my hair all kinds of different colors, so it was more aftermath than anything else.

Then fucking Pacy on Dawson's creek 'had his tips frosted' and fucked it up for all of us.

The '90s were the shit. The best part for me was that it was seriously un-cool to wear expensive clothing. So like you'd be decked out to the 9's if your entire wardrobe was second hand, cost less than $10 and was full of rips and holes.

Way more awesome than buying $125 hoodies with one fucking logo on them. ;)

Dude, fuck yes.

I always love watching the video for Touch Me I'm Sick, and imagine being 21 years old in about 1992. This would have been the kind of concert you'd have gone to on a friday with your buddies instead of going to see a DJ at a club.



No flash, no flair, just fucking plaid, grunge and partying.

Just because these dumb kids roll around in tall hoodies and jerk off to dubstep, that doesn't mean us old people have to.

Shit....in the last 3-4 years, I've seen My Bloody Valentine, The Pixies, GBV, Built to Spill, Dinosaur Jr., Bob Mould, And You Will Know Us., Thurston Moore, Polvo,..,, and on and on. I saw a newer band in Santa Fe recently called The Heartless Bastards and they were rad.

If you (not YOU you, but "you") are paying $50 to see a guy fucking push play on a laptop and dance badly, you're a fucking moron. Only cool if you're there to take a lot of drugs and trying to end up in a really weird orgy, and even then, just barely.

I'm keeping the grunge/post rock/post punk/people playing guitars alive.

On topic: My HS wardrobs was suit pants, suspenders worn down, pocket watch, chuck taylors, bowling shirts, thrift store tees, and homemade hoodies/tees with Sonic Youth and Mudhoney patches.

And dyed hair, and yes bleached tips....

Yes....that IS a Spacemen 3 hoodie, suit pants and chucks. And, NO, I wasn't then or ever the "most laid back" about anything, that was just code for "Most High and Least Likely to Succeed".

Yeah you can still go to that stuff, but its not like its absolutely everywhere. Here in Montreal we don't see a ton of it, so its super duper hard to be a part of.
