Using the wayback machine is so hit and miss when your memory betrays you, and you can't remember which provider you dumped a hideous website onto in any given year. I've trawled through it and miraculously found old tripod sites from donkeys years ago where even some of the photos have stayed put.
I'm always on the lookout for photos of my old bands (Seedy Backslash or The Anthill Mob) and the best I could come up with is a very uncool looking guy pretending he knows his way around a guitar:
These were all taken at the same party with me thinking I looked cool wearing a Crowded House baseball cap and a The The / Soul Mining T Shirt (what a combination). Mysteriously, two of the women I dated around that time are at the same party but I'm trying to remember the timing and whether they even knew each other / were aware of each other when I was dating them.
The top pic was taken on a pub crawl. My daughter always claims that "you don't have any friends" yet once I did, and I'm wondering what happened between the age of 23 / 24 (which is how old I was back then) and now. We get old, we drift apart, we become homebodies I guess.
But hey, once I was considered cool enough to invite to parties or be invited to join a band.
