Old School official Pic thread

[Hawk]

Defenetly not what I expected lol Man I had you lookin like an a really old dude in my head No offense of course it was that Hawk in your avatar just made think of a wise lookin older dude lol

I consider this acompliment! Besides my interest in history and philosophy I am a red hot metal headbanger and don't you forget it!

As for the older dude part, well, yea I am 45 and proud of it! I consider my age a advantage in many way's. I have seen some legedary gigs in my time, hehe [old dude speaking here] and those are precious memories to me.

 

[Hawk]

NICE! Looks like you're raising some hell in that pic!

I was!! I was just annoyed by al those old farts that did not headbang or thrashed around like it was 1986!

 

[Hawk]

Here is me. I don't have a scanner or anything so the only photos of me were ones I got off the site for a hard rock club I go to (a dude always goes around with a camera then puts photos up on their site).

Hey Trooper!!

Those pictures look kick ass!! Definitely old school!! You make the impression that you are a really layback relaxt guy.

Mmm I am going to play Vinnie Vincents "Invasion" album...

 

[Hawk]

Cool !!! Looks like you were rasing hell !! You remind me a little of my friend Greg. He posts as General Zod on the Prog Power forum here. He has that Mr. Clean look going on as well.
Maybe I can post a pix of me at Prog Power IV.


Bryant

Thanks. That clean look is not by choice I am afraid. One day I just got bald . I had to cut my hair. I used to have it hanging down halfway down my back...

 

[Hawk]

Wicked album!

Thanks dude! Hehe... Yeah I am very laid back and always relaxed, I always just like to have fun & rock out! Gotta say though, its not always fun catching the train into the "downtown" (is that what you call the main busy/CBD/city centre area in the USA?) part of the city dressed like that then walking from the station to the club hahaha! Usually get a few smart ass comments from people and almost ran into a bit of trouble with some thugs hanging around outside a liquor store one of the times coz of how I was dressed haha! I don't care what people think on the street though! I like it and that's all that matters!

By the way, I wish I had teachers you like at high school! Would be awesome to have headbanger teachers! I had one metal fan teacher in year 9 actually (he was my religious education teacher too!) and he put Megadeth & Iron Maiden posters up in his classroom, and when he was in a good mood he'd put AC/DC albums on while we worked!

Man you gotta be commended for sticking to your guns. Thats so cool. Do you play in a band?

That Reli Ed teach sounds like a cool guy. My old headmaster used to play us Jimmy Hendrix, The Who and The Beatles on his birthday, talking about 1970 now . He was cool, I guess he was the guy that introduced me to rock music in general.

Once a year I hold a music hour with the classes I teach. They can bring whatever shit they like. I thell them: "it has only one disadvantage, so will I!!" I don't spare them, I can tell you. Afterwards they keep asking me "You really like that music teach?" They simply can not believe an old guy like me likes Slayer, Testament and Arch Enemy

Well, its nice to scare the living daylights out of them

One day I am going to be busted for child molestation .

BTW did you see the movie "School of Rock" yet? Looking forward to that one. It could be about me!!!

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]

Hahahaha awesome! Yeah I bet that would shock the kids!!!

No I haven't seen it yet actually! But I wanna see it soon!

That is great! I had a teacher that let us do that (somewhere around 4th or 5th grade) and that is one of my best memories from childhood. All of us bringing in our Kiss and Ac/Dc albums (and the girls with their Abba shit... ) kranking them in class!! The first time I heard Highway To Hell was in a classroom!!! We had to play that one at low volume because we knew the teacher would not approve.

That's a great thing you're doing Hawk. I'm sure you're making life lasting memories for some of the kids. So are you the "cool teacher" at that school? I'm betting you are.
