xadamhudsonx Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Who needs cred when you're having fun? Is that, like, the AP slogan or something? Also, the site I got this image from is good for some laughs. Best Music Magazines The economy has taken a rough turn in the past few years, most notably this year and music magazines are starting to feel the heat. Is it because the internet makes it so much easier to read music news or because having a physical magazine is a hassle? I personally love getting a magazine, especially if my favorite band is on the front cover (or in it at all). In my experience as a bandom fangirl, I’d like to recommend a few magazines that really hit you with the latest music. Alternative Press * The best magazine I’ve ever read * Covers music, fashion, video games, anime, movies, anything band related, gadgets etc * Album reviewers are (in my opinion) spot on, Scott Heisel is my favorite * the clothes they advertise are awesome * The hometown heroes section allows up and coming bands to get recognition * The photography is amazing, each shot of the band is unique and modern * It’s a true fan experience, reading about your favorite bands and other readers’ opinions too * Even if you’re not a music buff, it offers plenty of opportunities to teach you about the music and the scene, about the fashion and instruments. * Really a great buy! * All I've ever wanted was someone to tell me how to dress, what to listen to, how to act, what I like, and how to fit into a scene (cause that's all the cute guy with the sweepdo that works in the mall cares about) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all I care about. so that explains the white knee-hi sox with desert boots and shorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

controlthebleeding Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Are jackets like these still fashionable? i've seen "edge" kids wear them. but other than that. i think they are only fashionable in high school.(shrugs shoulders) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drabley Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Are jackets like these still fashionable? Only if you're wearing the aforementioned white knee socks, desert boots, and shorts. I suspect both of these chaps are. 3OH!3 are awesome. I especially like how they spelled out the 0 in their name and added an exclamation mark! I'm going to do that from now on! The year is 2OH!1OH!

drabley Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Santiago, You should totally change the name of your band to Worldwide ZOH!OH! Exclamation marks are hot and all of the coolest bands are doing it. And you should read AP to get some fashion and hair advice. Long hair is sooooo 1992 (the year I was born!!) Your band could be so awesome and everyone in my class thinks so. Also, use one of those voice things so you sound like T-Pain when you sing. That would be very cool. Love, FangurlOH!3 PS Wear white knee socks. PSS You should tour with 3OH!3. They're my favorite. PSSS I also really like Cobra Starship. You should be friends with them! PSSSS Let's be super cool internet besties on myspace!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
selfreliable Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Good god, I cant believe people do wear those dumb jackets. They are the same jackets that the jocks and assholes wore that beat us up in high school. Thank God AP is here to tell me its cool for me to wear them now. And with that fancy throwback hair style too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is better with exclamation points! if you're wearing a letterman after high school it's equally retarded. doesn't matter who you are. besides calling or referring to yourself or anything as "EDGE" is silly and equally pointless. It's like calling yourself "Punk". just tacky. i totally back the whole idea behind it though (minus the violence) that being said, I don't read AP because i don't really care for most of the bands, but i'll totally buy a issue if there's something interesting to read. I don't vest time in hating on them because their criteria of music isn't suited to me. They do throw some killer parties during sxsw though. Maybe i'm just old and don't really care. But a little ribbing here and there isn't so bad i guess. I'm totally still gonna make a issue i'd like to see just for shits and giggles if i have time.

selfreliable Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 I dont go around referring to myself as "edge" you mentioned it first, and I think its a way you lumped people together. But potato, potatoe. I just dont want to be lumped into people that wear those jackets... unless you got the cool socks pulled up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think carhartt jackets are probably my fav, even though they are a drastic price increase . They fit me perfectly and feel really comfortable. Clothes are like guitars. you buy what suits you well, brand shouldn't matter. Except in the case of Lettermans, though i hear they are pretty good in cold weather. Never owned one, even in high school. I just don't like how they look. Much like early 80's clothing that people sometimes wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
