Last night was not only the best show we’ve ever done but it was one of the best shows in the world. We did over $5,000 worth of damage to the stage, blew up most of our equipment, and even broke down the front door. It was a symphony of disaster.
This is Nicholas Gazin’s vest. He organized the show. He also took most of these pictures.

There’s always a weird little contingent of rich sluts at our shows. We always abuse them and they always come back for more.

Being straight edge as a kid is a great way to rebel against: puking, getting pregnant, and wrapping your parent’s car around a tree.

Is this a new MTV reality show??
11.22.08 at 9:58 pm
vermifuge was better
11.22.08 at 10:06 pm
So rad. I wish I was at that show. By the way anonymous, you spelled “poseur” wrong. Is that more street credible?
11.23.08 at 12:18 am
vermifuge is the shit.
11.23.08 at 1:17 am
I don’t think Gavin at his age can do all these young people songs. He can prove me wrong but I won’t be listening.
11.23.08 at 3:09 am
I’m 21 and I feel silly listening to Minor Threat and Bad Brains. fugazi?

11.23.08 at 8:26 pm
80’s hardcore covers band, oh my god!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! why fucking bother?.
When the fuck did Black Flag become Hardcore is it because they had a drummer who played fast?.
If i could reach into my computer and beat the fuck out of each and everyone of you poser fucks …………….. I wouldn’t bother because i’m pretty sure every time you look in the mirror you secretly know what you are. FuckYOUFUCKYOUFUCKYOU.
Ps did i say FUCKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11.24.08 at 4:13 am
Gavin looks old as fuck.
11.24.08 at 9:15 am
I didn’t know you could cram that many “DON’Ts” into one picture set. Maybe the shitty music attracted them.
11.24.08 at 4:45 pm
‘Punks Not Dad’ is a pretty good one, i hope you just made that up
11.24.08 at 6:01 pm
Can I get an invite next time?
11.24.08 at 6:03 pm
That dude’s tongue is blue.
11.24.08 at 7:32 pm
try writing a few songs and try washing your fucking face you look like a dumbass with all that makeup. what are you a woman? you’re too old for makeup and too old to be playing a covers show with your shirt off. sorry but it’s true.
11.24.08 at 9:52 pm
i just want everyone reading this to know that is was positively excruciating to watch these wet farts mugging and holding these ridiculous poses for the camera. the whole thing was so self-conscious and lame that i get clammy thinking about it. everyone has a big gay mustache at that show, especially that dos and donts guy. he looks like NES Mario if he was a bavarian crusty.
11.24.08 at 9:59 pm
this looks like some sort of joke
I can’t believe this exists.
