NFG + DMS
so i'm sittin around watching the mtv cribs marathon yesterday, and they keep running promos an episode which includes chad gilbert from new found
glory. interestingly, he's wearing a DMS shirt in the clip. ummmm... is it just me, or does that seem like kind of a stretch?
If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

Isn't someone in Good Charlotte in with that too?
Wasn't Chad the one doing the whole Shai Hulud thing too so maybe they let everyone in now?
PS: Vietnom is awesome.
A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s
a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal
favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.

I saw that shit too. that rich bitch is the one who is buying all the limited addition oldschool hardcore records on ebay too. I was wondering who in
the fuck could afford to buy the gorilla buscuits original for 300 bucks.
I saw the episode and thought wow DMS has gone Wallmart.

which part? the record collection or the dms connection? i couldn't care less about what vinyl he has to his name, but i do think the fact that this
guy was wearing a dms shirt on cribs is really fucking hilarious.

I just let the vinyl shit float out there because he was showing it off on mtv.
I was just suprised like everyone I'm sure that he was sporting a DMS shirt. Thats all. I kicked it before with a few of DMS peoples a few times and
they don't remind me of the guy from new found glory. Thats all not. Not dissin anyone hear just suprised about SAID SHIRT!!!

I gave up on being suprised of fakes sporting crews on mtv or at shows. Ever since like last year the guys from Good Charlette or whatever they name
is sported VIETNOM shirt all the time. I thougth it was a joke but apparently Toby Morse and many others hang with them just to get shows. Gotta get
yours right?

"Let's get spiderweb tattoos on our elbows!" -or- "Fresh hot scene points for sale!"
to me, the whole thing is a little strange. while i know a number of people who have been a part of these crews over the years, i never was
personally, so i don't mean any disrespect. this just my observation.
take the alleyway dragon for example. sure, it's a tight design, and thousands of people have it tattooed on themselves, and that's great... these
days. But there was a time when you would get you ass handed to you if you got the dragon tattoo but weren't part of the crew. my mom got an
alleyway dragon tattoo cause she loves soia, but i'd never get one. the way i look at it, it's a symbol for something that i respect, but am not
directly a part of, so I don't feel I have any business getting one.
the same thing goes with dms, and even fsu. to be fair, a lot of it has to do with the amount of merchandise these people have made; I just don't
remember seeing crew-specific gear at shows years ago. but go to a show in NYC these days, you can see a dozen people in dms shirts, dms headbands,
fsu 'insert city name here' chapter shirts, the whole deal.
and again, I'm not knocking it; you gotta represent, I understand. I guess I'm just wondering... it seems that when an icon representing one thing
rises in popularity, those responsible for the original meaning slowly loose control over that message as it reaches the general public. so how do
you keep it pure? and how do you feel when it has reached the saturation point? is it meant to be a brand, or a crew? how do you keep from becoming
the next cbgb t-shirt for sale in the urban outfitters?
aahhhh, call me old fashioned.

that may be the most I've ever written. can you tell I've been up for 40 hours?

This is the answer. To all who belong to this specific gang etc. STOP MAKING THE MERCHANDISE! It's now a joke. FSU ALLEYWAY KAC DMS ORPHANS. It's now
watered down. I remeber shows when sick of it all came with Biohazard and Sheer terror. Biohazard seemed like they had to respect SOIA. Even though
they were on the tour together. SOIA's roadies and band owned the show. In the pit dancing it was crazy. You worried about the gang not of a loser
trying hurt people, but a gang who was out to protect all that was sacred at shows. There boys and the fans.
H2O and orange 9mm was another example. Small show in 96 but damn half the crew from NYC came to cleveland to represent. that was a real crew. PLus
none of them wore a DMS shirt. Not one mother fucker. You just new they werre tight with there crew.

i don't know, both. who's to say the dudes a fake? doesn't he have hardcore roots? the shirts a little iffy, but i don't know. i just see kids posting
about this everywhere and i don't understand why it's worthy of so much talk.

if the dude is wearing a DMS shirt then there's a reason he's wearing the shirt. All those gangs don't let some random dude "buy" a crew shirt. If
someone has on DMS or FSU or whatever then they're supposed to be wearing those letters.
