Teen Gothic

Every other post is someone having an identity crisis or complaining about their families/communities not appreciating their gothness. I just want to make sure everyone knows it’s supposed to make you feel good to listen to music you enjoy and wear the style of clothes you like. It isn’t that deep.

When you put it into perspective, it’s kind of a shallow thing to complain about. There are people in the world being persecuted for things completely outside their control. You have the privilege of going out looking like a freak, knowing full well it will provoke a reaction from people, and then you get to take it off at the end of the day.

If you’re that sensitive, don’t even bother. I personally only get gothed up to go to my local goth night once in a blue moon. I don’t want to be stared at everyday for dressing like a weirdo. I’m an adult with bigger things to worry about.

i wanna get into goth music but people keep recommending me 10 minutes songs

I've been interested in the goth subculture for a while, a few days ago, I decided to listen to the music and, omg, I've feel in love with it, I've easliy spend several hours just listening to goth music, it's one of my favorite genres now and I'm even planning on watching some goth movies. I'm also planning on dressing in goth style, but here's the problem, I'm mostly an indoors person, so I've very few friends and the only people I talk with frequency is my family. I decided to reveal my interests and my plan for my goth outfit today, expecting support and unfortunaley, as you've guessed, all I was meet with is mockery, harsh judgement and them claiming them won't help me with anything, they even said that I'll look "horrifiying" or a "freak" or even saying stuff like "imagine you going out like this in public, looking like a vampire, if you want it, fine, but let's agree that's weird and I don't want any part of that", this has made me very sad and also very lonely, it's makes me think that I'll never meet someone that respects or have the same interests as me and that people are only going to see me as a "weirdo" (not helping that I've only meet like, 2 alt ppl besides me in my entire life), I can't put in words how this has broken my heart. I'm planning on revealing my goth interests to my very few friends, I hope they understand me and don't judge or mock me. Sorry in case my english is broken (I'm brazilian) and sorry for the long post, I just wanted to vent

In The Flat Field was the one that got me into goth, after discovering Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus.

Dark Entries, Stigmata Martyr, and Double Dare got me hooked.

On Wednesday night my girlfriend Jill and I saw Missing and The Chameleons at the Oriental Theater in Denver. I had fun shooting photos, seeing friends, dancing, and enjoying the night with my favorite person. Towards the end of the show, Mark from The Chameleons jumped off the stage and climbed up onto the security railing right in front of us, which I shot two of my new favorite photos of (I'll post those eventually). After the final song, I heard the woman who was standing next to us asking someone on stage for the setlist. Our friends gathered around my camera to check out my photos – they were in a few so I wanted to share. When I eventually turned back around I saw Jill holding that setlist. For whatever reason, the woman who originally got it randomly gave it to her without either of us asking for it. The paper now lives on in my binder of similar items. Someday I'll scan and upload all the flyers, setlists, etc., from my personal collection of things from the many events I've gone to during my life. Huge thank you to that random woman who parted ways with this simple piece of music history – a simple gesture that we'll never forget.

Like the title states, I bought 2 tickets to see Twin Tribes; however, my plus one bailed. I don't want the ticket to go to waste, so here I am offering it to anyone who wants it. Just send me a dm.

Edit: just to clarify, it is only one ticket. I am still going, lol
