*Hardcore*

@Sugar:
Seul – were you straight edge in a past life? You and I are the same age I think and I wonder if our paths have ever crossed... I used to follow those Belgian bands like Dead Stop and Justice and ended up at Lintfabrick (sp) once or twice. Or were you more an H8000 man?
No H8000. Started going to shows when I was 14-15… Mostly crust and punk in squats and such... Started going to hc shows when I was 19-20 until my mid 20ies I think... Saw Deadstop a couple of times...
Oh: and never was SxE either...

Cheers for the reply Seul. I can stop wondering now!
I worked through my box of 7"s a couple of weeks ago and sorted them into sell/don't sell piles. Pangs of nostalgia but they need a new home where they're not gathering dust. Keeping Black Flag, old DC hardcore (Dag, MT, Swiz) and other gems but a lot needs shifting.

As soon as I have one, I'll send it your way.

I saw those guys live in a basement about…uhhh....I guess 5 years ago now. They were nice dudes. I bought records from them. I know I sold one, but I think I might still have one sitting on my shelf. Not sure. There is one song by them with a title about cell phones, which was pretty cool. I can't remember any more. I always enjoyed Graf Orlock quite a bit more.

Yeah one of the dudes gets tattooed by one of my tattoo artists. We were listening to there trainwreck split when they were about to release it. Had to be 07ish. Good times.

I listed a whole lot of my old hardcore 7"s for sale on a message board last night. Quite a strange feeling to be back in that world however briefly. Feeling a bit nostalgic atm but my philosophy is that if my past (Hardcore) can fund the present (IH shirting) and my future (a wedding in Hong Kong) so be it!
Some things just stay with you though:
-
these pics are from about ten years ago. show in hamilton, ontario canada upstairs at sonic union
converge, death threat , the cursed and i cant recall the opener
check out the cut on rbg (almost certain i had a similar mop at the time hahaha )
and the best photo ive ever taken even if it was a total accident
sorry rbg i cant find the disc that has the rest i know i took like two rolls that night too
-
I think I saw Converge around the same time (c.2002) in Leeds, England. Cool show and I remember RBG's mop hairdo, ha.
