backstreet girl
to celebrate the 23 years of slavery, i took ben to see social distortion friday night. i checked the supply and he had enough underwear (happy craig?), so i thought a real present was in order. i’ve always loved the mike ness, and listened to social d constantly in high school. ben would “borrow” my tapes as a kid and social d quickly made an impression and he was a fan.
despite the insane heat inside the venue we had a great time. it was good to run into some old friends from back in the day, and even better to spend time with my punk rock girls, and better yet i’m the proud new owner of a sick girl social d jacket. it’s mine, all mine…finally!
I love the SD!!!
i would enjoy a ben guest blog along side the sarah blog post to see the skewed perspectivos. please.
Cool, I was at that show, too. It was hot as hell and the beer line was waaaayyyy too long. They ran out of cups, so they gave my friend a pitcher all to herself.
SD was one of the first shows I ever went to, oh about 15 years ago. The years since then have not been kind to Mike Ness.
good show.
Are sick-girl-social-d jackets available in pink?
cornflake: how can you not?
am: i’ll work on it, however, i’m almost certain after reading the comments on his birthday blog he isn’t going to be interested. let’s just say he was less than thrilled.
linden: i think it’s the drugs that have not been kind to mike ness. it was so hot i did things i normally wouldn’t do…
fity: social d isn’t exactly a concert i would expect fity to attend, but more power to ya, big man!
j2: yup, which is why i finally broke down and bought it!
That’s a much better present than underwear. And it was a present you could share which is an added bonus.
SARAHB,
why wouldnt I be able to enjoy the soothing sounds of social d like anyone else? Why would it surprise you? When I played football at a local university I rocked out during work outs to the d. Check your self before you, as the proverbs say, wreck yourself.
fity: word.
What did you think of Supersuckers? It was a great show, but I could have used some AC.
It’s a sad night in England, babe.
Where was I? I’m so sad.
