Honestly, I'm okay with people not liking it. It is what it is. I just wonder at the people that react so harshly considering they're on a Sonic Youth board...the same band that wrote "Eyeliner". And I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe no one here owns any David Bowie, NY Dolls, Nick Cave, Stooges, etc, records...all of whom have worn make up.
As far as the reason I wear it goes, I've never thought of it as 'trying to look pretty' or anything like that. I just think of it as an art thing..using the body as canvas. I don't feel that I NEED it for anything, whether it be playing a show or otherwise, I've gone on stage plenty of times without it. I just feel it adds something to the presentation, a way of standing out from the myriad of indie bands we regularly play with.

Yeah, I don't see much difference between choosing a certain outfit or choosing to put makeup on when performing. It's just an expression of a person's style/feelings/ideas. You may like it or not, but that should not affect your judgment on the music. I know there are many shitty bands nowadays putting on makeup, and that doesn't make their music better AT ALL. But there are also great bands whose makeup/outfits add something to their performances.
At least you can wash the makeup away when you feel like doing that, something pretty hard to do with a tattoo ha ha.
Dionysusundone, add Boy George to the list

most of the straight edge kids wore 100 dollar+ jeans from around 2000-2003. i don't hang around that scene anymore so i don't know if they still do.

yes and I thought their makeup sucked major ass, and made them look even uglier than they actually were.

I love it. Looking at peoples picture IDs is one of my favorite things to do. I believe I posted the one from my health card a while back.
Everyone should post one.

What is that guy holding up to his face?
You shouldn't ever smoke Crypto! I'm not trying to be a nag but it's so terrible for your poor wee lungs. I want to quit before I go to Trinidad and Tobago at the end of March.

cryptowonderdruginvogue · 12.11.2007, 03:20 PM

I don't, I was just really high

Good luck, by the way
You should start....
