The past, darkly...

[pomba gira]

My 2nd hubby just sent me a link to these pix... on the website of a guy who used to take pix & video of the East Lansing punk scene ca. 1980-86. These are me around 1982 or thereabouts. Daayyyum, seeing these brought back some memories! Look how little & cute I was back then... why the fuck didn't I think so?

Next to me here is my former longtime best friend & wife, Gloria... yes, that's me w/my head turned!If anyone's interested, the page is here. The band in most of the pix is the Cult Heroes of Ann Arbor, led by my former "babysitter" the incomparable Hiawatha Bailey. I think they still play around Ann Arbor on special occasions.

Send me links. My older brother would have been around the Lansing scene from 83-86.

EDIT... Nevermind. I missed that you linked the page.

Those are great. I'd be willing to bet my bro knew who that was. He got involved promoting bands for a while. The Crucifucks!!! LOL!! They were awesome. I've got some of their stuff on tape. Maybe.

Haha I still remember when they cancelled that show... ended up having it in some condemned farmhouse out in Williamston. Doc Dart still lives around here, haven't seen him in a couple years tho. Someone has a tribute page for him on Myspace, kind'a interesting... it's on my friend list.

If your brother was there in that time frame, we prolly knew each other at least by sight... what's his name?

Anyway... Syntax saw my comments on his guestbook and contacted me. He sent me more pix from back in the day, here are a few:

Me & Gloria in '81... we called this shot "Buy one get one free" I actually still have the Hong Kong beaded sweater... black angora with gold beading.

Me ca. 1982. Still can't believe how tiny I was!
