This brought back so many memories!

This piece really resonated with me to the early teen fender squier and dyno bmx days. So many memories of punk/hardcore with crazy venues and characters. You really captured a moment in time!

I had a chrome dyno vfr with blue lettering. My chariot.

Thanks for reading!

this was such an enjoyable read. Felt all the same feelings and had all those same thoughts, but just in suburb rhode island, instead of suburb long island. Didn't really find my people until 10-11th grade (04), but once I did - the world opened up in a similar way. None of my musician friends made it further than the VFW halls, but still all of those times have made me who I am now!
