2002

 

It's really hard to be '80s if you're playing a Telecaster. It's not mine.

April 2002: This picture indicates the presence of bangs. Was it a good idea? I don't fucking know. The upside is that I get no more afro jokes.

Cool story: One time, Dave Mustaine's dogs jumped up on Ron McGovney's Pontiac. James Hetfield said 'Get off the car, you stupid fuckin' dogs' and Dave flips. Dave took a swing at James, so they start goin' at it! Ron jumps on Dave's back and it's official: Dave Mustiane is getting his ass kicked. Just then, Lars walks up (with a Tygers of Pan Tang shirt on) and says, 'Fuck!' This was in 1982. Then, Lars thows a snare at them and they stop fighting. It was fuckin' wild!

Attention!  Many people have reported that a clone of ex-Metallica bass player Ron McGovney (circa 1982) was seen roaming various areas of Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia and North Carolina between March and September 2002. This is not the case. The "clone" was merely Gordon during his short bangs stage.

Tell you motherfuckers who you fuckin' with!

May 2002: Goddammit, if one more person calls me Bob Dylan I'm going to be turbo pissed! I don't want to look like Bob Dylan, I want to look like I'm in Slayer. People these days just don't get it.

Car show hair!

Car show hair is very special hair. It's like state fair hair, but for guys. Chicks with state fair hair are sexy. Gordon with car show hair is not. Car show hair is caused by heat, humidity and moving around a lot, which are exactly what happen at a car show.

My IROC would kick this car's ass. In a snowstorm.

 

September 2002

There goes 'Clop'. That's an evil inside joke.

I am all '80s all the time. The shirt I am wearing has an '80s Team Associated RC10 R/C car on it.

November 2002: A good old-fashioned drunk buddy picture. 

2003

Obviously, we can slow down significantly on hair news, since it's hard to tell when long hair grows half an inch.  We're coming up on three years since the last time the no. 2 guard-equipped clippers buzzed against the side of my melon, and here's where we are. 

bud. heh heh

September 2003: Yes, I finally possess two things that I have wanted for a really long time... long hair and an authentic Armored Saint poster! 

October 2003: I couldn't resist another update because, A) This picture is way rad, and B) It's my Black Sabbath cover band, Spiral Architect.

 

Shake your head in disgust and return to Night of the Living '80s
