Silly bands looking silly in photos. When I’m not busy mangling PHP code or Photoshopping face wrinkles out of my photos, I can be found scanning lots of music sites looking for goodness to share with you.

A while back my favorite intrepid video explorer@morganclinesent me a delightful vid called “Cold Drinks” (below).

I found some goodies and then moved on to looking for old Big Drill Car videos, as you would expect.

My dad swooped in and picked up a couple prepackaged gems from our local variety store (Schatzows 5 & 10, Belmar, NJ) on his way home from work. A tremendous amount of thought was not put into the purchase. The costume box contained a semi-pliable mask (decorated with lead paint, I’m sure) and a chintzy, plastic smock that displayed the theme of the costume in an extremely budget fashion.

Thanks to videogum and @timheidecker for discovering this unholy grail of uncomfortable super fan photos that will—no doubt—be used one day by the FBI in some serious celebrity stalking and kidnapping cases.
