I was the only one ballsy enough that year to do such a thing. They thought I was cool for it.
You look like a member of a hair band, or a fake hair band…like Limozeen.

Glam metal. ^_^
Actually, I think the term "hair band" came about to describe the strange quiffs on the 80's New Romantics. Who mainly had short hair.
Once upon a time you see, ALL bands had long hair. As such, making a point of that in their description was as redundant as saying "a cop with a gun". :)
Shame that it's degenerated to the extent that people now apply it to something that was rather ordinary at the time. Ugh, retrospective word transformation. -_-
I actually never liked '80s rock or the whole "hair band" and "glam rock" phases. The '70s and the 90's were the best things to happen to music. As far as dress, however, there were some fun stuff in the '80s, even if a lot of it was really dumb.
What I'm actually wearing in that picture is my dad's old outfit. He used to play concerts in that. I wish I was old enough to watch back then. :(
In the 70's almost all bands had long hair ;)
Glam Rock came from the early 70's. Glam metal is very different, but quite fun, much less focus of emo and teen aggression like other metal, and more focus on straight out sex and fun.
Your dad sounds cool ^_^
Glam Metal is fun. Though I hated it growing up. Glam metal, to me, was the opposite of what metal was supposed to be. Now, being older I can look back on that Glam Metal and enjoy it for what it is… just fun music!
By they way, with most people i talk to in my area (which is the top half of california), we call it "Butt Rock," and i have no idea where that term came from (though I'm almost certain its an insult). But, I'm from the Bay Area and I say "hella" (we're proud of that word), so what do i know?
Also… side note… I think that the "hair metal"/"hair band" term for this kind of music comes from how much time the guys from, say, Motley Crue (at least in the old days) spend on their hair versus, say, Metallica (once again… back in the day)!
Your dad sounds cool ^_^He is pretty cool. He's an excellent guitarist, too. He's met a lot of well-known musicians like Stevie Ray and Jimmy Page (many more, but those two come to mind first).
I like to brag about my dad when I'm not bragging about myself. He's gone pretty far with his playing of the guitar. I'll post a picture if I can find one.
He's got a cool name, too: Storm Rhode IV he has a myspace for business. :)
i was actually a boy scout. and that was my old uniform…and my old taekwondo uniform didnt fit anymore, so i wore that for hallowweenI need to get some pictures of me in my Shinkendo uniform. I wear a white gi and a black hakama. It's really fun to wear. :)
I really wish I got some pictures of me in my Halloween costume last year. It was so cool. I was an undead pregenant bride. I had a pretty, white dress, with blood staining and trickling down from a fork stabbed into and sticking out of my protruding belly. I also had a veil, a bouquet, and a baby doll's head at the end of another fork. It was so cool!
