WAIF: The New Fashion Police?!?!?!?!?!?!
Image isn't everything, if you're really talented you don't need to look the part to impress people. I disapprove of jorts in general but I accept that they are comfort for one's testes in a sweaty setting. Personally I am insecure about my playing ability so when I perform I usually wear a "statement" outfit.
That's great that garufurendo (girlfriend) likes metal Eligos, especially that she likes different stuff from you. My jump-off looks like Kurt Cobain and dresses like a lumberjack but he likes mostly power and folk stuff (and is super gay for Megadeth/Cacophony/anything Marty Friedman has ever done). He also likes new Arsis better than old Arsis but I let that slide.
