| The History of Rock (According to a 1989 LHS Yearbook) | Ok, so I was looking through an old yearbook to see if there were any pictures of bands or anything like that in it. Curtis C. found old pics of 60's garage bands in some, so I figured it was worth a shot. This one was completely worthless in that department (but if you want to know important stuff like what the students thought about Dirty Dancing, it's got that covered), but it gave me an idea. Since we don't have pictures of a lot of bands from back in the day, here's the best I can do. This will probably get me killed (most of those shown here would probably consider it a justifiable homicide), but I give you the world of rock, according to a 1989 yearbook. By that, I mean, about 60% of the Zen Bastards, 80% of Toxic Youth (Corey, you lucked out), 100% of Smaug, etc., probably to the mutual embarrassment of everyone involved. If you were in a band and not pictured in this yearbook, consider this your lucky day. I knew that stupid yearbook had to be good for something.|||||||
