I'm old, but I'm probably cooler than you. I love classic metal and weep openly when I listen to Merciful Fate. I don't find it a problem that I'm going bald and have long hair, just look at the Scorps. A precedent is set. They get it on with the ladies, why cant I. I always wanted to cover Kiss's "Going Blind" and change it to "Going Bald".
I've been playing guitar for 27 years, so I'm probably a better guitar player than you. I'm tall and thank god I'm skinny again. I tried fat for a while and that didn't work out so good. I am a serious beer enthusiast, I have 2 Kegerator at my home, Phil and Ken. Ken (short for Kenmore) usually has Lone Star. Phil (short for Philco) has more exotic tastes. Sierra Nevada, Live Oak, Real Ale, that sort. As I type this Phil has DogFishHead 60 Minute IPA, which is probably the only keg of that in Austin.
I moved to Austin to be a punk rocker in the summer of '82. The first show I ever played was opening for Minor Threat at a club called the Skyline Lodge (?). That is probably cooler than your first show, but who's keeping score anyway. Oh, I guess I am, but don't get too down on yourself cause I'm pretty sure we sucked. Later I wasted my youth playing in Agony Column. We released 3 albums and toured the states a bit back in the 80's and 90's. Currently I am in IGNITOR. IGNITOR is pure, classic metal. I really like it because it is exactly the music I most love and it gives me an excuse to wear black leather chaps. It's hard to work chaps into your wardrobe without a real good reason. I also perform as KK in the Judas Priest Tribute band Sad Wings. Check out my bands at:
