Welcome to the first, and possibly last, edition of a feature we’re calling OLD SCHOOL / NEW SCHOOL. I usually run on at the mouth in introducing posts around here, but for this one, I’m just gonna let you figure out the theme for yourselves. Given the title we’re using for this series, it seemed fitting to begin with the following contrast. (Don’t worry, there will be music after the jump.)
OLD SCHOOL

Are you getting the hang of this? If you’ve got old school-new school ideas for a future installment of this thing, e-mail me (see the CONTACT US tab at the top) or leave a comment. Or just tell me to fuck off and die if you think this is stupid.

I approve of Alamo Drafthouse
Ditto. Too bad they couldn’t kick her out twice.
Does it make you miss Austin? Normally ppl cheer and jeer at the person when that shit happens lol!!!! Funny thing is if you’re not a douche those ppl are actually cool as shit….
It does make me miss Austin, and I really like the Alamo Drafthouse — they’ve got several locations there now. I’m going to Austin to visit family in a few weeks. Get my fix of decent BBQ, Tex-Mex, and hopefully local metal.
Nu school… I see what you did there……
I was beginning to think no one would notice! Truth is, I had that idea first and then built the rest of this post as a lead-up to that pun. 🙂
Where’s Ozzy???
I had planned to include him, but couldn’t find a good photo of him when much younger (too lazy to spend much time looking), so I gave up and went with Axl instead. Maybe next time. 🙂
Axl certainly aged about as well as Ozzy did.
Yep. They both turned into ugly, old, incoherent fucks.
Well…. I could have fun with this.
Try a younger Rob Halford with hair, then Rob as he is now, bald but with a beard you can probably smuggle stuff in.
I’ll get back to you with some more ideas.
You are the first person who even indirectly suggested this might be worth doing again. Oh, and the Halford beard line is choice. Speaking of hair and no hair, I’m thinking about Devin Townsend . . .
Yeah, that works too. The skullet was fairly iconic. I don’t really recognize Devin anymore in pictures.
The skullet was ghastly. I think he looks much better currently.
Do it again! Do it! Do it!
OK! OK! I now have two votes in favor and none against. And I think two is a quorum around here.
Oh! My support is always implicit!
You can always just add an extra “for” vote to whatever we are voting for.
Whether it’s shaving a large Italian man and throwing him in the middle of a herd (?) of penguins or setting all the octopus robots free in Brooklyn, I vote “YES!” As in “No, we probably shouldn’t, but, fuck it, yes, we can and, yes, we will!”
Also, I wanna see and old school/new school for black metal. (I’m thinking a burning church then a fat hipster.)
I knew I could count on you. Every organization needs people who will vote yes for everything, particularly organizations that I run.
Black metal definitely needs to be included in the next one. Ideas are popping into my head like cancerous tumors.
Would a pre and post suicide picture be in bad taste?
And exactly what have we done to make you think we have taste?
I thought NCS made the new yorker look like big jugs monthly.
This makes me feel so proud. I’m thinking of making it out new logo. “We make the New Yorker look like Big Jugs Monthly.”
