I think I got the right look for askrere:

Foodie pants with built in lap napkin!

 

[Blank_0101]

Definitely go for the Miami Vice look.

Unh...gah...

Well, that IS about as 80s as a look can get, but to me (having lived through all this) it was the WORST of the 80s.

What about a goth/Robert Smith of The Cure look? Or total safety pin punk (although none of the punks I ran with did much of that...it was more flannels and Doc Martens...)

Maybe go all...Flock of Seagulls?

Between those concepts I might be able to get something going thanks!

I have a shoulder pad infused blazer somewhere. Need some neon though.

T40s have gotten out of hand. They should be around 2-300$. Right now they are going for $400 plus. It sucks.

I think $350-$450 is about right for T-40s depending on condition, finish, etc. What gets me are the $600-700 T-40s.

And parachute pants!

Damn straight or some Guess or Z Cavarrici jeans....boat shoes are popular again so that is an easy one

 

[Pelham Bleu]

^ Oh hell no.

It's all I will wear these days. You get to a certain age and it's all about comfort and functionality over style. "Lap napkin" sounds much better than "crotch bib."

Nah too poor and laid back for that business, I rocked plaid shirts over Samhain T's and red tab Levi's.

Dat is why you are The Man...

(Same here...almost all my clothes came from Goodwill, garage sales or hand-me-downs from my old man. Every so often I'd be able to score a cool band t-shirt, but I made a lot of them myself with Sharpies and spray paint + stencils...ahh, memories...)

 

[Pelham Bleu]

Happy Friday! Payday, gig tonight, beer fest tomorrow, good timin'.

Always fun to write Misfits lyrics on your red BoBo's with Sharpies.

Have a blast. My prediction: MDT will KILL!

Since some of us are tripping down Memory Lane a bit, funny Misfits-related story. I did my undergrad college work from 1986-1990 in a small town in Oklahoma (where, ironically and somewhat accidentally I happen to be living again after more than 25 years...a temporary situation, I hope.)

Anyways, I was blasting the album "Walk Among Us" in my dorm room one day and I was exiting my room to hit the bathroom in the hallway and when I opened my door there were these two cute little small town, wide-eyed freshmen chicks standing there with their jaws dropped. One of them looked at me and said "Is that music legal???"

lolz...

I mean, it was the Misfits. I wonder what they'd have thought if I'd been playing some early Butthole Surfers or Throbbing Gristle...

"No, it isn't, and now it's time to show you too something else that is illegal in this county."

This looks pretty sharp.

The Lapkin will hit the country by storm you just wait.

Did he have an animal in his dorm room?

Just the one in his pants...

Totally unnecessary, but super cool looking. The two often go hand in hand.

Well...put my Traynor YBA-1 up for sale. Mr. Grumpy should be here before the end of the month and there's not much reason to keep the Traynor, beyond sentiment.

Good luck with the sale Corey, i can't imagine it'll hang around for long.

Took a half day, running around getting stuff together for the camping trip.
