Right. You'll just bitch about it all over the interwebs.drew wrote:I want to be at the back bar in a small club watching some great band just tear it up when I’m 70 yrs old.
You're only a few years away.

Or, maybe you're the one that's stinkin'.

I feel like I noticed this a lot more just after the smoking ban took place, but not so much anymore.
There is something to be said for folks working from home as a result of Covid maybe not showering as much.

I get not showering as often if working from home, but you’re going out. Act accordingly.

Good thing you never had to go on tour in a punk rock band. You'd have taken a train home after just 2 days.

smelled of whatever AXE type cologne I could afford at the time.

It was actually not bad EXCEPT for the one dude near me who was unironic hesher from Long Island who weighed at least 250 with a bad dye job and a black metal T with the sleeves cut off. He snapped at least 3,000 photos with an old school digital camera and kept waving devil horns and soliciting fist bumps all night. When the show was over I heard him try and chat up some folks...yeah, he was definitely on the spectrum. And he stunk. Good show, though.

Case in point: Buzzov-en. I saw them at a house party in 1993 in Virginia and just before they played I overheard a roadie say "Holy shit, Dennis REALLY smells bad tonight, like rotten-flesh bad". Dennis then spit on the ceiling and let it drip back into his mouth/face/hair and smiled. Krk asked a few of the people holding their red cups of keg beer if they could step back a bit but they were too busy talking loudly to hear him, so he flipped his amp switch on, hunched over and launched his body into the crowd, knocking them over like bowling pins one guy had a dreadlock in his mouth for a moment and while I felt like the smell of the band was going to make me throw up, I had the time of my life until krk ended the show with his entire torso in the bass drum and feedback almost making people cry. Smelliest band I've ever seen/interacted with and best/loudest house party I've been to. I'm pretty sure I was wearing a Mega City Four shirt, Airwalks, jean shorts tastefully cut off and smelled of whatever AXE type cologne I could afford at the time.
