And Thats That!

August 21st, 2005. Apocalypse Lounge. Alphabet City, New York. Summer 2005.

The Time Flys played, the Rats played and Stalkers too.

This is me with a random dude. i looked and felt soooo bad ass here. i made this porn shirt that was extremely vulgar. To complete the look, i had shades at night and a button that said "I Heart Being Black". I really dont know what the hell i was thinkin. But, i look back at this outfit fondly.
This was an all out, free for all jam. Andy Jordan on guitar, Josh Styles, Professor 3000, Erin, Dolan all played a drum. Andy played Bass. It was a like a drum circle, but with punks in a sweaty basement.
Erin Emslie and Professor 3000. i think thats his name.
More Punk Drum Cicle
Eric and Layla dance to the Rockin rhythm.
Andy plays Carlos Bass. Awesome Gibson EB bass
These two dudes came out of NOWHERE! They had hair below their nipples. They just got shirtless and started HeadBanging. the Cooooolest Headbanging session i have EVER seen! It was quite a sight with these two. METAAALLL
Whhhaaaaaaa!!!

Eric Pooped from all the dancin and whatnot.
