the olden days


Here's a couple of snaps from back in 83 or 84, not long after my first wife, Gayle, and I had moved to Albuquerque from Tacoma.
I weighed in at 180lbs here and I think I thought I was a lardass. Oh to be that lardass again.

Note the "Bourbon Bros. Disco Sucks" jersey I'm sporting. The Bourbon Bros. were a band that played the Chelsea street Pub circuit back in the 1980s. Many a night was consciousness lost listening to the band play Led Zeppelin on a banjo and drinking cocktails we won for being the most obnoxiously loud people in the place.
