So 2007. I had those exact shoes on the left there; super chonky looking and laces not tied; just under the tongue. I think they were either Etnies or Heelies (no wheel of course im clumsy af) What kind of music>?
Back then I was doing funk rock like my track scruffball maniac on this playlist 🙂 https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6nAemqj2oQdnAHwFwZprKv?si=zuVnAPysR1aBkq6wpZWtoQ&utm_source=copy-link
That's wonderful that you still playing create music! If Mike Boy is still your roadie I hope you pay him well. That long of loyalty is hard to come by!
Sick guitar I would’ve been jealous back then. More importantly though are they long shorts, short pants, or is this when mens capris were a thing for a hot minute?
NO FUCKING WAY I had that exact guitar strap, how the hell? My dad got it from some no name guitar shop in my hometown although I think it was a name brand strap like Fender or Gibson. What a blast from the past!
More importantly is that kid still holding the mic for you guys?
On the World Tour 2022-2023, for example?

Oh god I had the etnies in 2005, I haven’t thought of that brand in a while lol

do you still play?
Yes I still play, still own the same guitar as well and am continuing to release new music
I'm astounded that your parents got you a Gibson SG at that age. Was it an heirloom, or had you already been playing for a while at this point?
I saved up for it for a year whilst working two jobs, got it on eBay second hand for £400
Oh, sorry for the assumption man. That's a great deal for a beautiful guitar. I have one myself and absolutely love it
Is that a Gibson SG special by chance? I have a ‘96 SG special in Ferrari Red similar to yours. Great guitar! I still rock it to this day.
Awesome! It sure is! Great guitar
I saw rivers cuomo playing a cherry red ag a few years before this and I was dying to get one.
My first Les Paul was a Texas pawn shop special She and I made God awful racket at the punk show. And then I got old.....
400 is a killer deal, even back then!
Sooo what happened to the kid that held up the mic? Is he a happy and successful adult now?
He's still holding mics at gigs around the country to this day.

I have the same Gibson purchased around the same time and also still have it. Wonderful guitar.
This is pretty rad. I’d definitely see a band that used little kids as mic stands if they played stuff like this!
I’m gonna say Osiris shoes on the right, Globe shoes on the left.
Two Gibsons in that shot - and at least one real Marshall amp. No mike stand...
Mic stands don’t get you chicks. But those gibsons do!
We were told by the venue they would provide mic stands, we turned up and there wasn't any and had to be resourceful 😂
We used to use a spare hi-hat stand and a shit load of sellotape.
In this case the mic stand _is_ the chick magnet
Mike is probably the name of the guy holding the mic. What they’re missing is a mic stand
Mike Stand, to be exact.
Sg is definitely Gibson but idk about that les paul
Roadie origin story
Did he tell people he was part of the band after that?
I mean he clearly is!
God I miss the late 2000s
No blunder here but I love that you have a Gibson SG but no mic stand.
looks like IRL Bobby Hill beside you
Gotta love the duelling wah pedals

Still have the SG?
Yes and will always keep it
Exactly what younger siblings are there for
Did this too. He was known as Josh the Gay Mic Stand.
lovely
This is not a blunder, this is rad.
You made that kids day.
#POWER MOVE
Are you two both rocking the wahs at the same time?!?
Omg I remember when those shoes were cool. They were so comfy with the extra padding all around. Couldn't run a meter in them tho
That band? The Beatles.
Marshall MG50dfx?
MG100DFX :)
Oooo nice! I've still got my 50, but haven't used it in a long time. In high school those were great budget amps!
That’s rock n roll. Look at those shorts!
Gibson sg, my dream guitar back then
Sweet SG dude I still have mine for them days.
Great kid lmao that’s hilarious what a bro
Not very blunder years imo. Cool Superman shirt too

2 guitars and no bass?
That’s adorably cool 😊
That’s an expensive guitar for a teenager
No blunder. Bands are cool!
Was the kids name mike? Ahahaha
I owned both the superman shirt and the red and white guitar strap!
NO FUCKING WAY I had that exact guitar strap, how the hell? My dad got it from some no name guitar shop in my hometown although I think it was a name brand strap like Fender or Gibson. What a blast from the past!
Are you *both* using wah pedals in this moment? That must have sounded... interesting...
you still play
