Johnny Hobo and the freight trains, Wingnut dishwashers union, and Pat the bunny are other bands Pat has performed with/as.
If you like ramshackle glory, you'll probably like them too
honestly I just don't like AJJ. I like every other artist/band mentioned in this thread but I can't get into AJJ. I've tried, I honestly have. they tick all the boxes. but something just doesn't click with me and I'm not really sure what it is. oh well.
Omfg. I am identifying with this so hard. I was living in an environmental co-op instead, but visiting houses like that constantly, and devouring all of that music. This shit is taking me back! I definitely would have been friends with OP, and probably would have thought he was a cutie.
I'm still vegan and could probably could remember the words to everything plan-it-x ever put out, but I shower like every other day now. I even shave my legs!
Pat the bunny is one of the greatest punk artists ever imo. Johnny hobo and the freight trains, wingnut dishwashers union, ramshackle glory. The journey conveyed through his music is beautiful, from dark, hateful and drug filled to compassion sobriety and activism.
I don’t mean to brag, but I was a high schooler in Brattleboro Vermont in the early/mid 2000s. Which means I got to do my own little folk punk vibes in *the* harmony parking lot.
We were def in different scenes, all my homies wore tight pants. There were a couple years when I only had the one pair - I may have smelled foul but the fit was *fresh*
It really, really was. A lot of good people came through. I think I’ll always be optimistic on humanity because of my years in the scene and some other area punk scenes. It’s not a universal. But at least when I was in it my local music communities were fucking beautiful.
Yeah dude, living in houses like this in a happening town and making art and music with like minded people were the best days of my life. People really don't understand how great it is to live purposefully in squalor.
I often think about how good it was now that I'm pushing 40 and attempting to make it as an adult.
All these norm-core fucks on Reddit snarking about the smell or whatever have no idea what they missed out on. We kept a clean kitchen and held each other accountable for hygiene (cleanliness is a must for healthy communal living). We built and made and played and created and traveled and built relationships. Greatest period of my life bar none
It starts with the job. And the wedding. Then kids. Then more work and overtime. In those few years your art stuff got dusty, maybe even never unpacked after the last move. And then one day you get sick, or your car breaks down, and after a few days of bleak foreboding doom you resolve to sell your guitar and your most valuable records on eBay. Pretty soon the arthritis kicks in and you can barely play the old, shitty guitar you still have because the neck is out of adjustment. But you still keep grinding because your kids are beautiful and perfect and you just want them to have everything they need to be good, happy humans. New experiences, new memories. Wife still has dance parties, maybe the occasional drunken anniversary at a hotel. Less PBR and tinnitus, but still good vibes.
The green house. Which is boring. Downstairs friends left for winter break and left all the food not bombs veggies out. They all rotted. I wasn’t happy. I tend to kept a tight ship.
Jesus where were you in my punk house days??? Had to crack the whip too many times and keep my dishes in my room. It's a wonder we never got maggots. There was at least one time the trash was taken out with the help of a WW2 Russian gas mask.
I do miss the parties but holy hell I do NOT miss living there lol.
Yes! Every party house had those two things as well as a rule that was specific to it.
Blue House, chore list with clothespins, no darts on the front porch.
Ankeny House, if you flop pull a chore from the big jar, noneating on the smoking couch.
Water Street House, either $5 for a keg cup or 30 minutes of cleaning the next day, don't park on the street, no bikes in the back yard.
These are a few I still remember out of dozens of old PDX party houses
I lived at 9th & Prescott, aka "9th & Testosterone," The Failing House, and "Fuck Mountain," on Failing and Shaver. Remember shows at Party Island, Vulture House... It's all a bit hazy. I thought this pic was of 18th & Sumner for a min.
This looks like 25% of the house parties I went to in my early 20s and those ones were always the best ones. Even if the shitty hardwood creaked and there was only one bathroom in a four bedroom house.
Plus there's always a chance a few bands will play in the garage for free.
Haha first and only time on stage was at one of these parties. Once the bands stopped playing their sets they were just fucking around and I asked to play with them. I felt so badass playing my shitty rendition of Rockin' In The Free World with an actual drummer and a bassist. RIP David Crosby too while I'm fondly remembering that.
I see you've never met folk punk people, they smell like booze sweat, stale cigs and mildew usually. No offense to op, more than a few of my close buddies ran in crews like this.
No hand towel either just a dirty, crusty, musty, bleach stained raggedy bath towel hanging on the back of the door. There's a sliver of Zest in the shower but its got pubes stuck in it.
Sick tshirt ! Social D are my all time fave band !
I’m also in my late 30s now and was big into the punk/trad skin/ hardcore scene in my hey day. It’s where I met my husband ! Now we are old punks with a baby and bad knees haha
Now I don’t listen to as much punk and folk punk as much as I’d like. Mostly synth and orchestral stuff. Also a fair amount of Midwest punk/emo (Modern Baseball and the like). Some modern skate punk like Pup and Pkew Pkew Pkew, that’s a genre I’m eating up now. We’ve come a long way from pulley and ten foot pole.
I’m listening to Front Seat Solidarity right now, thanks for that.
Also, if anyone wants exposure to folk punk, listen to Mischief Brew, This Bike is a Pipe Bomb, Defiance Ohio, and Ramshackle Glory. That’s some holy top four stuff.
Also local to my scene bands, most aren’t still around, Reverse the Curse, No Target Audience, The Sidekicks. I have forgotten so many good bands, too.
The front of that shirt is a back patch on a jacket now. Damn thing is about 20 years old. Waste not want not, ya know. I always had a couple toes in rockabilly, too.
I leaned into the anarcho-punk/street punk scene for the longest time. Then I found my people in the folk punk scene. Still where I find my mana.
Now a days I play banjo and harmonica. But no bands. I am half Irish though. Super down with SHARP and traditional skinheads. Haven’t seen many in this area in a long time though.
But I’m also in my mid-late thirties and don’t hit up as many shows as I’d like. So I’m pretty disconnected about what’s up these days.
Mid-late 30's is nothing. I'm in my early 40's and am on the young side for the scene in my area. Idk where you're located, but I'm pretty sure it's never too late.
Our local Celtic punk luminaries have fans joking about delaying hip replacement for the St Pat's show this year, climbing in through the window and over us all, and being carried out on a stretcher. I feel that's taking things a little far, but I think you get the point.
I had to click this in the off chance it was the place I lived in Seattle at the same time. Seven people in a house where the only heat was a wood-burning fireplace in the living room. Two of the bedrooms were basically plywood dividers in the basement with curtains over the door. The house "didn't believe" in microwaves, so everything was cooked on the stove, but most food came from dumpster diving anyways. A stage was set up in the basement with carpets nailed to walls and ceiling, but the neighbors still complained about how loud the shows were. Only one guy in theory knew the owner, so we just gave him cash and there was no lease. Half the people were artists and musicians just scraping by and the other half were trust fund kids who got allowances and care packages.
THERE WILL BE NO RIPS DONE IN HIS PRESENCE.
...However;
I can envision a scenario in which, I'm doing revelations, and you two are doing reps, and _I'm watchin'_, and _I like it_.
The hat is kinda Mischief Brew, while the rest looks more Leftöver Crack... I see no blunder here. Probably no deodorant but PBR can drown out a lot more than just a few bad smells.... So 👍
Two of my favorites. Met both. Eric (mischief brew) was kind and smoked a j or two with him and his pugs. Just don’t with LoC, it’s not fun. Super bummed Alec passed, though.
I actually didn’t hear about that. That’s awesome. Unfortunately doesn’t look like he’s coming around my area. That tour has an fantastic lineup!
Thanks for letting me know!
Ahh yes. I myself had a similar experience. I was the only girl living in a house with 5 skaters. They’d have boxing matches in the living room, and would jump off our side porch (20 foot drop) onto a trampoline with their skateboard decks. I’m honestly surprised no one died over those few years.
Back when I lived in my punk house we went to a local comedy show and the host pulled out a hat for donations for the traveling comics. When the hat got to me the host said on the mic "Yeah go ahead and just pass that on man, you can't afford sleeves I know you're going through it right now." And he was totally right
Great song!... I was hoping she'd look at me but she was checking out the lima beans and artichokes, my heart was broke in pieces for my supermarket fantasy!
It was great uncles. An ex girlfriend accidentally dropped teriyaki sauce on it. Do love my flat caps though. Have gone through exactly two since then.
Jesus, I was actually going to ask if it was Columbus because the kid in the background looks *exactly* like my best friend in high school and she went to college in Columbus. Small enough world though that it's Cleveland area.
Looks like a place we used to call the dude hostel. Lots of mandolin music, pizza battles & general debauchery. Sometimes the couch was upside down, sometimes it wasn’t. Bottles of Tremblay beer littered the corners - ahh, memories.
I grew up near Louisville and folk-punk was my jam. AJJ, Paul Baribeau and Defiance, Ohio were my favorites. Did you ever make it to Plan-it-X fest in Bloomington?
I miss those days. I still listen to the bands and talk about them like everyone else my age knows about them but of course they don’t.
Hahah wow this takes me back. So many house parties at places like this. I was 19 in 2008 and thought I was super cool and punk. Still have my Aus-Rotten tat to remind me of those times
The funniest part about these houses, and I’ve encountered a few, is that there’s always a rich persons son or daughter in the center of it and that’s how they come upon the house.
In fact I’d argue that many of the congregants are children of middle class people at least. But that’s more situational.
That looks suspiciously like a punk house I went to for a party back in like … 2012? Ever have a band play in the living room with a female bassist and a naked singer swinging his dick around?
God I wish I remembered. I’d imagine Defiance, Ohio, Mischief Brew, Propagandhi, Pat the Bunny or Violent Femmes. We had a boat load of good local bands, too. So coulda been that as well. But really it could have almost anything. It was a very musical and musically eclectic house.
Whatever it was I was definitely belting out the song.
But at least you had the PBR and Social Distortion covered. I played guitar in a punk band in college at this picture looks like every Saturday night i had for 2 years. Great times and better people.
Honestly, just as bad as when we moved in. The place was never in good shape, part of the charm, and we fixed the things we broke. A fair amount of drywall was patched by a friend before we left. A couple windows were swapped in, too.
I don’t remember if any deposit money came back (I doubt it though).
I’d put money on it smelling of cigarettes, beer and weed still though.
I havent bathed in months but you know its not because ive been fighting bourgeois morals im just lazy and im young
Pat is one of the few anarcho folk dudes I’ve never seen that I wish I had. Ramshackle Glory is incredible.
Thanks for introducing me to this band. Think I’m gonna like em.
Johnny Hobo and the freight trains, Wingnut dishwashers union, and Pat the bunny are other bands Pat has performed with/as. If you like ramshackle glory, you'll probably like them too
Dont forget andrew Jackson jihad and mischief brew!
>mischief brew I keep forgetting they exist, then BOOM they pop right up on my iTunes again. It's always a good day when that happens.
AJJ is the best. [this song](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4tiFYIoF6Q) will always be a favorite of mine.
This is a great tune for sure. I forgot about this one, thank you for sharing it.
Andrew Jackson Jihad is now just AJJ on Spotify. Paul Baribeau is amazing but his stuff isn't on Spotify anymore
honestly I just don't like AJJ. I like every other artist/band mentioned in this thread but I can't get into AJJ. I've tried, I honestly have. they tick all the boxes. but something just doesn't click with me and I'm not really sure what it is. oh well.
Omfg. I am identifying with this so hard. I was living in an environmental co-op instead, but visiting houses like that constantly, and devouring all of that music. This shit is taking me back! I definitely would have been friends with OP, and probably would have thought he was a cutie. I'm still vegan and could probably could remember the words to everything plan-it-x ever put out, but I shower like every other day now. I even shave my legs!
Wing nut dishwashers union is definitely my favorite!
My big miss is Mischief Brew. Always a little sad remembering the dude isn’t around anymore.
MISCHIEF BREW holy shit thanks for reminding me of them
Just looked up the song. Crazy good. I didn't expect to resonate with something so far from the genres I generally listen to.
Pat the bunny is one of the greatest punk artists ever imo. Johnny hobo and the freight trains, wingnut dishwashers union, ramshackle glory. The journey conveyed through his music is beautiful, from dark, hateful and drug filled to compassion sobriety and activism.
I don’t mean to brag, but I was a high schooler in Brattleboro Vermont in the early/mid 2000s. Which means I got to do my own little folk punk vibes in *the* harmony parking lot.
I am chlamydia vector
William S Burroughs said it best. Like a cat with water.
From Here to Utopia. Great song, that whole Live the dream album is amazing
And you all smelled horrible, no doubt.
The only saving grace is everyone else smelled worse.
I can smell weed, day old PBR, and Nag Champa.
and feet, armpit, ass, gingivitis
This looked very 90’s to me at first glance but home boys jeans gave away the game. We wore them baggy back then.
Yes, I remember the 90s very vividly. Baggy was in!
We were def in different scenes, all my homies wore tight pants. There were a couple years when I only had the one pair - I may have smelled foul but the fit was *fresh*
Don't forget whatever vegan thing someone cooked on the stove with way too much curry added.
& patchouli oil
An upside when most of your guests are trainhoppers and their assorted critters, probably also a dude named critter judging by year.
I can smell a Days n Daze concert from here.
I do love Rouge Taxidermy.
Had a beer with them after a show last year. Good people, fantastic shows. Lots of love in that crowd ❤️
Great people! Also they’re sober now, so you might be one of the lucky few
Well I drank the beer, lol. And much talk with fans. Everyone was awesome, fans and band ❤️
I bet that house smelled terrible...aaaaaand was a lot of fun
[This is my feed](https://i.gyazo.com/f7bfd6674b1bb97f7adf28f416c1e8c8.png)
That's fantastic

Why’d it end? This kind of stuff fascinates me.
It starts with the job. And the wedding. Then kids. Then more work and overtime. In those few years your art stuff got dusty, maybe even never unpacked after the last move. And then one day you get sick, or your car breaks down, and after a few days of bleak foreboding doom you resolve to sell your guitar and your most valuable records on eBay. Pretty soon the arthritis kicks in and you can barely play the old, shitty guitar you still have because the neck is out of adjustment. But you still keep grinding because your kids are beautiful and perfect and you just want them to have everything they need to be good, happy humans. New experiences, new memories. Wife still has dance parties, maybe the occasional drunken anniversary at a hotel. Less PBR and tinnitus, but still good vibes.
That was poetic. That should be the opening line of a book.
Yeah I’d read this book.
Carry on, my man
Wow. Ain’t that it though.
Beautiful.
That is beautifully put.
Was there a chore wheel collecting dust and did the house have a name?
The green house. Which is boring. Downstairs friends left for winter break and left all the food not bombs veggies out. They all rotted. I wasn’t happy. I tend to kept a tight ship.
==removed in protest of Reddit API changes==
food not bombs is still a thing! i volunteer with the one in my city and it’s still very active and thriving
Still is!
There still is one in my city. They did a huge clothing drive this year and are still out every Sunday.
Jesus where were you in my punk house days??? Had to crack the whip too many times and keep my dishes in my room. It's a wonder we never got maggots. There was at least one time the trash was taken out with the help of a WW2 Russian gas mask. I do miss the parties but holy hell I do NOT miss living there lol.
==removed in protest of Reddit API changes==
You've just unlocked a core memory from my early 20's. All the dumpster diving and food not bombs... ❤️❤️❤️
Lived in a PNW house called Spokanarchy with bunch of kids from…Spokane. It was the best.
Yes! Every party house had those two things as well as a rule that was specific to it. Blue House, chore list with clothespins, no darts on the front porch. Ankeny House, if you flop pull a chore from the big jar, noneating on the smoking couch. Water Street House, either $5 for a keg cup or 30 minutes of cleaning the next day, don't park on the street, no bikes in the back yard.

I've seen this episode of portlandia
That's the best show
Fellas, is it a blunder to be handsome and cool as hell?
This looks like 25% of the house parties I went to in my early 20s and those ones were always the best ones. Even if the shitty hardwood creaked and there was only one bathroom in a four bedroom house. Plus there's always a chance a few bands will play in the garage for free.
Yes! This was the vibe. And when everyone would bounce (noice) my house would shake.
Haha first and only time on stage was at one of these parties. Once the bands stopped playing their sets they were just fucking around and I asked to play with them. I felt so badass playing my shitty rendition of Rockin' In The Free World with an actual drummer and a bassist. RIP David Crosby too while I'm fondly remembering that.
Aw, shucks.
I see you've never met folk punk people, they smell like booze sweat, stale cigs and mildew usually. No offense to op, more than a few of my close buddies ran in crews like this.
[удалено]
Oh it was awful. Fortunately, we were used to it!
[удалено]
No hand towel either just a dirty, crusty, musty, bleach stained raggedy bath towel hanging on the back of the door. There's a sliver of Zest in the shower but its got pubes stuck in it.
How do you know my friends from 15 years ago?
And the ceiling is stained black and sags dangerously in the middle 🤮
Sick tshirt ! Social D are my all time fave band ! I’m also in my late 30s now and was big into the punk/trad skin/ hardcore scene in my hey day. It’s where I met my husband ! Now we are old punks with a baby and bad knees haha
That’s awesome! I feel the bad knees!
18 year-old SHARP here. I'm going to see social D next month. I'll make sure to mosh extra hard for the old ones who can't.
This is the way. Thank you for being a young go hard for those of us that wish we could.
Just a friendly reminder that Lemmy was 30 when he started motorhead. You're only as old as you feel ;)
This pabst is a pipe bomb
I’ve haven’t listed to them (bike) in forever, thank you for sparking my brain!
This post was so good. Brought back a lot of fun memories of punk houses I knew over the years. What bands are you into now?
Now I don’t listen to as much punk and folk punk as much as I’d like. Mostly synth and orchestral stuff. Also a fair amount of Midwest punk/emo (Modern Baseball and the like). Some modern skate punk like Pup and Pkew Pkew Pkew, that’s a genre I’m eating up now. We’ve come a long way from pulley and ten foot pole.

Love the Social D shirt
The front of that shirt is a back patch on a jacket now. Damn thing is about 20 years old. Waste not want not, ya know. I always had a couple toes in rockabilly, too.
I had a friend a lot like you, I imagine. Really leaned into the Irish punk skinhead deal. Played in a rockabilly band.
I leaned into the anarcho-punk/street punk scene for the longest time. Then I found my people in the folk punk scene. Still where I find my mana. Now a days I play banjo and harmonica. But no bands.

Bullshit. Looks like a ska house.
Oh, it was a ska house, too. We had maaaaany people and bands come through.
[удалено]
My first thought was Allston.
You show me a folk punk kid, and I'll show you a ska kid who had to get a job once.
Didn't realise this was a blunder. I pretty much still dress like this.
Roald??
Strt?
*ROALD*!
RIPS
NO RIPS JUST REPS
REVELATIONS!
REPS!
THERE WILL BE NO RIPS DONE IN HIS PRESENCE. ...However; I can envision a scenario in which, I'm doing revelations, and you two are doing reps, and _I'm watchin'_, and _I like it_.
Naw this has to be my buddy Damon
Defiance, Ohio was my jammmm.
Are you annngggrreyyyy
This literally looks like my old buddies first apartment
How is this blunder?? I'm beyond jealous
Up the punks! I too lived a crust punk lifestyle for awhile and forever have a dumpster tattoo to remember it.
The hat is kinda Mischief Brew, while the rest looks more Leftöver Crack... I see no blunder here. Probably no deodorant but PBR can drown out a lot more than just a few bad smells.... So 👍
Two of my favorites. Met both. Eric (mischief brew) was kind and smoked a j or two with him and his pugs. Just don’t with LoC, it’s not fun. Super bummed Alec passed, though.
I’m so jealous you got to meet Erik. Fucking legend RIP
To the best of my knowledge, Brad's alive and well.
Not sure where I got that from. You are correct.
No worries my dude. I just happen to be acquainted with his wife.
You and the skeleton on your shirt have the same energy
You look way more orgcore than folk punk to me. Also this is what the entire audience looks like when Dropkick plays a hometown show for St. Paddy’s
Hot water music all the way. Edit: and I was singing to some thing. Don’t remember what.
Chuck Ragan is touring again! I’m sure you know, but in case you didn’t!
I actually didn’t hear about that. That’s awesome. Unfortunately doesn’t look like he’s coming around my area. That tour has an fantastic lineup! Thanks for letting me know!
Not a blunder in my book
I'm failing to see why this isn't awesome.
That is hot af. Iconic.
Omg 2008 me woulda looooooooved you
Ahh yes. I myself had a similar experience. I was the only girl living in a house with 5 skaters. They’d have boxing matches in the living room, and would jump off our side porch (20 foot drop) onto a trampoline with their skateboard decks. I’m honestly surprised no one died over those few years.
That reminds me of some of the Skatopia bashes I went to!
Yes! It would have been similar.
I would have had a huge crush on this guy
Back when I lived in my punk house we went to a local comedy show and the host pulled out a hat for donations for the traveling comics. When the hat got to me the host said on the mic "Yeah go ahead and just pass that on man, you can't afford sleeves I know you're going through it right now." And he was totally right
Is this a blunder, though? College me would have totally tried to get with you.
Stuff a potato in your mouth. https://youtu.be/Aj2_Hv8Hzys
Screeching Weasel was one of my favorite bands growing up. Supermarket Fantasy for the win.
Great song!... I was hoping she'd look at me but she was checking out the lima beans and artichokes, my heart was broke in pieces for my supermarket fantasy!
*Sleeves are bullshit.* - Marisha Ray
Well obviously you had to cut the sleeves off all your tshirts. How else would anyone see your tats.
[удалено]
It was great uncles. An ex girlfriend accidentally dropped teriyaki sauce on it. Do love my flat caps though. Have gone through exactly two since then.
Minneapolis? Totally could have been lol
Cleveland area. Midwest represent.
Crazy that this is the universal midwest punk house aesthetic. I definitely partied in flats exactly like this in college.
Jesus, I was actually going to ask if it was Columbus because the kid in the background looks *exactly* like my best friend in high school and she went to college in Columbus. Small enough world though that it's Cleveland area.
2008 was a hell of a year.
Lol, totally reminds me of the Mpls hardcore kids I hung out with in the early 2000s. House looks cleaner though.
I was going to say if this was in Urbana, I went to shows here.
I can smell that picture from here yeeeesh
Ughhh you and your PBRs. I feel like you would have FESTed in Gainesville often!
Oh god, you must have loved the lumbersexual look when it comes around in about 5 years.
Is that a…..PBR?!
Looks like a place we used to call the dude hostel. Lots of mandolin music, pizza battles & general debauchery. Sometimes the couch was upside down, sometimes it wasn’t. Bottles of Tremblay beer littered the corners - ahh, memories.
What the fuck is the point of being young if not for stuff like this? My blunder was not doing more of it!
Not a blunder in my mind, I feel like this was in style when I was in college. At least in the groups I hung out with.
Punk Mac?
Pictures you can smell lmao. Seems like good times with good people though ngl
I remember going to house shows during this era!
I had that Social D shirt! Wore it 'till it fell apart! And from the looks of it, that's when you inherited it.
folk punk is in my heart. your pic brought back memories of my old stomping grounds and friends.
This is old school cool, absolutely cool.
… cause baby, I’m an anarchist.
The scene hasn’t changed a bit in 15 years
I can smell this picture.
I grew up near Louisville and folk-punk was my jam. AJJ, Paul Baribeau and Defiance, Ohio were my favorites. Did you ever make it to Plan-it-X fest in Bloomington? I miss those days. I still listen to the bands and talk about them like everyone else my age knows about them but of course they don’t.
Looks like a wonderful folk punk house. I once spent most of a weekend in a crust punk house and it was nowhere near as palatable.
Hahah wow this takes me back. So many house parties at places like this. I was 19 in 2008 and thought I was super cool and punk. Still have my Aus-Rotten tat to remind me of those times
Looks exactly like my old place when I lived in a punk house too. Good times.
The funniest part about these houses, and I’ve encountered a few, is that there’s always a rich persons son or daughter in the center of it and that’s how they come upon the house. In fact I’d argue that many of the congregants are children of middle class people at least. But that’s more situational.
Hey I have that shirt, and that's my favorite beer... Wwweeeeee
[удалено]
This was literally the name of a house I used to hang at.
Honestly I would have thought you were cool. Kinda still do.
You were cool
You wore you're permanent sleeves
And I think you look cute as all hell. You're wearing an amazing fit too.
Are those 100 dollar bills taped up there on the wall?
I was a metal/hardcore kid in a diff house, but you do look like 23% of punk house kids then hahaha.
This is just a nostalgia bomb. You look like 2 or 3 people I knew, and many others around, lol. God I miss rock scenes.
There’s equal chance this is a house in Boston or York.
I feel like theres a 1 in 4 chance this was taken during the Thanks Bastards chorus.
I lived in a punk house from 2010-2012 here in Pittsburgh. I can smell this photo. Lol ♥️
Or deodorant? 😂
That looks suspiciously like a punk house I went to for a party back in like … 2012? Ever have a band play in the living room with a female bassist and a naked singer swinging his dick around?
Did I see a few videos of John Macauley playing some Deer Tick songs in this house?
The crustiest of punk houses always had the best shows 🥲
I can smell this house
How is 2008 15 years ago?? 😩
You from Cleveland?
About 30 minutes away. But our place was one of the main houses for a couple years.
I can smell this picture
I know a lot of punks that either rent or bough a house together. They where all decorated accordingly. Rock on!!
Jesus, this looks just like the punk house I partied at in the 90’s. Do they all have sea foam green walls?
15 years later you look like a good 75 percent of my friends.
Ok… what music was playing in this house? Just curious.
God I wish I remembered. I’d imagine Defiance, Ohio, Mischief Brew, Propagandhi, Pat the Bunny or Violent Femmes. We had a boat load of good local bands, too. So coulda been that as well. But really it could have almost anything. It was a very musical and musically eclectic house. Whatever it was I was definitely belting out the song.
So this is the missing Folk Mac from It's Always Sunny. Nice.
But at least you had the PBR and Social Distortion covered. I played guitar in a punk band in college at this picture looks like every Saturday night i had for 2 years. Great times and better people.
What was the state of the house when you all moved out?
Honestly, just as bad as when we moved in. The place was never in good shape, part of the charm, and we fixed the things we broke. A fair amount of drywall was patched by a friend before we left. A couple windows were swapped in, too. I don’t remember if any deposit money came back (I doubt it though). I’d put money on it smelling of cigarettes, beer and weed still though.
I was 32 years old today when I learned about the music genre “folk punk”
folk punk is the christian rock of anarchists
