For decades, the role of breadwinner was reserved for men, but today, more than a quarter of American working women earn more than their spouses, and that means more dads are opting to stay home with the kids while their wives are at work.

My mom worked extremely hard to provide for my sister and I, while my dad stayed at home to take car of us, the cars, and house. I would never trade it. I have a very strong bond with my father thanks to these years together at home. Stay at home dads rule.

I used to work with Jonathan, the main dad in this article, in Boston. This article rules.

New documentary: A Band Called Death

*SHRIEKS* 

* SCREECHES*

Do you KNOW how much I love that ALBUM?!!!

THISTHISTHISTHISTHIS

HELL YES!

“Playing music impossibly ahead of its time, Death is now being credited as the first black punk band (hell…the first punk band!), and are finally receiving their long overdue recognition as true rock pioneers.” — Stupefaction

Ummmm, yes.

So weird and great to see people from all over, not just Burlington, getting excited for this!

One of the reasons Get Stoked!

Good Band, Good Dude, Good Friend

Justin!

This was such a fun show. 
haha & J, you look so exasperated! 

It’s hard to keep the PMA when you are Justin Gonyeah, dude just wants to watch some Harvey Birdman but instead he has to hold back the mob and organize benefit fests, I bet he was making a have heart shirt with his feet at the same time.  Justin Gonyeah, a bear among men.

reblogging myself. 

this show was so rad. support H.E.L.L. and pick up a copy of the compilation that this benefit show was a release for! http://onehellofacompilation.bandcamp.com and http://getstoked.storenvy.com

Posted an update for the DIY label I run with a friend. Check it out! 

getstokedrecords:

A lot has been going on at the Get Stoked! Records camp lately. We released Rough Francis’s debut album “Maximum Soul Power” on cassette, which is already sold out and 10K Volt Ghost’s long awaited cassette “The Clubhouse Demo”. The only remaining copies of the Rough Francis tape are with the band…

‎2012 started off really shitty, got fucking amazing over spring/summer, got really shitty again, and has had its ups and downs since. BUT! things are rad, life rules, and i’m staying positive and going to make things even better this year. i hope everyone is having a good evening!

this!!
