o.o I can't remember who I saw last...so...my first concert was Poison, Winger, Cinderella, and Faster Pussycat.  I was 12 or so. xD  My second concert was Ozzfest featuring Marilyn Manson, Disturbed, and Korn.  The best band I have ever seen was Pretty Boy Floyd, though.  (And I've seen at least 200 different bands live, and some more than once.)

I have one tattoo, but have about 12 others planned.  Most are "girly", but I don't care.  They're all going to be in places that can be hidden, though, so I can get a job teaching.  I don't have my ears pierced or any of other piercing--I seem to be allergic to all ring types. xD  Ummm....I've dyed my hair:  red, pink (on accident), blue, green, orange, purple, and purple-black.  I'm about to go back to purple-black once I can 'cause I liked that color on me.  And I want to see what it looks like with short hair.

I don't wear skinny jeans because my hips are a bit too big and I'm a bit too tall to carry them well...and I like my jeans to be loose and comfortable.  Or I wear leggings.  I love leggings since discovering them in England. XD  They're so comfortable!  And totally not any sort of "scene" clothing....but I normally wear jeans and some sort of t-shirt.

The last band I saw was MCR at HOB in Chicago  *says hello to insideontheoutside*
and I'm going to see David J of Bauhaus next month

I don't have any piercings or tattoos but I dye my hair jet black and wear black skinny jeans.

*waves*

I think the last concert I saw was Muse. But I'm seeing MCR again in April and May.

I just realized I've never had my hair purple before. Might have to fix that...

First off Insideontheoutside I'm thrilled to see you smile.  *throw party!*

I wish I had more money to spend on concerts and that but all my money goes to clothes.  I certainly live an alternative BDSM lifestyle which I talked about more in my blog on here.  (disappointing some people I fear) 

Yesterday I bought an incredible full length leather coat from Pelle.  This is when my goth side goes out which is still under the surface even though I mostly go preppy in the way I dress.  I am planning on wearing the coat to a Live Action Role Playing (LARP) today called Vampire the Requiem which is from the New World of Darkness rpg series.  My vampire's name is Dmitry.  He is a Daeva and follows the Circle of the Crone.  I'll post pictures if I get any good ones.  Yes we do run around and hiss and bite at each other.  It's fun!

 

I'm so glad I found this thread! I am totally emo/scene and I love the look. Right now I have black fingernail polish on and my hair is done in a scene/emo kind of way. I wear skinny jeans and retro hoodies/t-shirts. I got the glam rock kind of look going on. I love it. I want to get some black stud earings to put in my ears. I love those things. My hair is dyed black right now and I am thinking about adding some bright red streaks to it. Or some other crazy color. 


Oh, I also wear guyliner, I love that stuff.

Style wise, hard to pin down, i'm really getting into my diy stuff at the moment, i have a ton of boy t-shirts i'm going to turn into dresses and stuff like that.

I know some books you might like, they're all about altering t-shirts into some really awesome diy clothes.  Generation T (one of my favorites), Tease, and 99 Ways to Cut, Sew, Trim, and Tie Your T-Shirt into Something Special.  One of my favorite shirts came from an idea in Generation T...the back of it is cut to look like a rib cage.  It's in bright pink though, so I feel a little uncomfortable wearing it now.

I love armwarmers.  I designed and made a pair out of a couple of old t-shirts.  You can see my girly-looking hands in the pic though.    The armwarmers probably don't help with that (I wonder if any guys wear armwarmers?)  I don't wear them much because nobody around here does, alternative fashion is not popular at all where I live.

The link leads to some excellent inspiration pics, as well as nostalgia. Those of you who loathe the 80's, don't click the link.
I made my mum very sentimental with showing her that site, she said it reminded her of her youth.

I love the idea of making new clothes out of old clothes, but I'm absolute crap at sewing. I really wish I was good at it, I have a friend who makes her own clothes and she always looks good in them.

Those arm warmers are amazing...jealous of your designing skills dude.

I'll post a picture of my dress tomorrow as well.

Thanks. *blush*  Would love to see your dress when you get it done!  Here's some pics of a couple more shirts I've done.  The second has matching armwarmers.  I made it for a friend of mine (the one wearing it in the pic).

Sup.

I've had every style of hair. Dreads, to mohawks. Every color of the rainbow. Here's me with a mohawk.



My hair grew out sightly so I cut off the mohawk, so now it's just boring regular hair. My eyebrows grew out too. Thinking about dying my hair light pink. Let's face it, I'm not going to pass until T anyway, so I might as well do whatever I want.

I have my septum, labret, and ears pierced. My ears are 29mm or 1 1/8". I retired my snakebites, bellybutton, nipples, and nostril. I'm thinking about getting double nostrils though.

I want full length sleeve tats in the future after top surgery that is. Tats are hella expensive. It'll probably be a geisha/zombie theme. I want to get EVIL DEAD on my knuckles haha.

I'm into manga/anime.

I'm into all genres of music, except country music. My favorite is industrial, then black metal. I've been listening to a lot of pop music recently >.> I can't help it, I like to whip my hair back and forth yanno.

Lately, I've been super lazy and just throwing on skinny jeans and a t shirt. I do have a kodona/ouiji wardrobe though, that I never get to wear.

I haven't been to a concert since I was a teenager.  The only concerts we were allowed to go to were for contemporary Christian music.  I got to see DC Talk, Michael W. Smith, and 4Him.  Yeah, I was a wild child.

Wow....@.@  Don't be embarrassed by that!  Parents differ in how they raise their children.

>> My parents are really nice and taught me well, they just didn't see any sense in sheltering the kids too much. xD  My mom's the one who bought my first outfit at Hot Topic. xD

Oh I run a sort of alt fashion blog too http://deathcultcouture.tumblr.com/

/edit

my blog is NSFW btw haha

My parents were goths or similar back in the day. So they got to see Bauhaus and Velvet Underground live, and such things. My mum used to have a buzz cut when she was younger, and father still has his weed-smelling, tie-dyed shirt he got from a festival.

I was brought up with the mindset of "Weird is good!" and "No knowledge is useless". So yeah, my parents are gothy nerds. My mum is currently sewing a corset while listening to Joy Division. I think this says quite a lot about my family, really.

Awesome blog, Shayne. You've got good taste.

Does anyone here like old-school punk? I'm okay with some modern stuff like Green Day and MCR, but they aren't even punk anymore. Misfits, Dead Kennedys, Ramones, I like that sort of thing. Though my ipod is very, very eclectic.

I love the Ramones!

And Joan Jett and the Blackhearts.  Some consider the band "rock", but they sound more like punk to me.

>> My ipod is also eclectic.  I go from Lordi to Beethoven to Joan Jett to t.A.T.u. and many other bands.

First of all: For those who are seeking new awesomeness....go to youtube and type 'Dead Letter Circus'. Seriously. CHECK THEM.

And, for me, since I can't understand very well the western culture, I have to say...
My latest concert.... GACKT. And the best...I know you guys really get blind at him, if you just listen to the voice... you will notice there is really very little people who can sing better than him. His pitch, vibrato, range...is perfect. He's a f** robot...I could see him from 1 meter distance and I could see how he controlled his breath even with the dance. The best concert...till I have the chance of watch Buck-Tick on concert, of course.

Gackt is good, but I prefer him with Malice Mizer.  I also absolutely love Miyavi...followed by Dir en Grey and Girugamesh. >>  Specifically Miyavi.  Who I'm hoping to see one day in person.

i'm a rivethead at heart, but i don't really dress teh part. latest concert? combichrist! i love them. i've also seen vnv nation, assemblage 23, and one, and a bunch of other awesome bands.

i've always wanted pink hair (at least since getting into j-rock several years ago) but have never had the chance to do it. have a labret and 00g lobes, and a crtilage piercing. i plan to go up on my lobes and i want more piercings but dunno if i'll get them. i have one teeeny tattoo that i did myself, a nautical star on my ankle. i DEFINITELY want more of those xD

what do you all think about themed tattoos? like....if you have more than one, having a certain theme so they all relate somewhat, even if it's just their style. necessary or no?

I liked themed tattoos, but I'm not doing that except for when I do my family's astrology signs.  Though dragons are going to continue to be a theme of mine. XD  >> I have one dragon tattoo right now and I'm going to get more soon-ish.

What black metal bands do you like? Black metal's not my favourite type of metal but some bands I enjoy.
