"Nah, Sublime was pretty mint," he answers, passing the eyeliner over. He sits up straighter and leans forward a bit. "Actually caught one of their shows once." Years after he died, of course, sitting unnoticed on a balcony railing. The only shows he went to when he was alive were in cramped, graffitied venues his mother would've fainted at seeing.
"My favorite was the Specials, though. Band out of Coventry. Tried my bloody hardest to dress like them, but I just looked like a schoolboy headed to church." Especially when his dad trashed the brimmed hat he'd fished out of a thrift bin, saying it made him look like a fairy. Of course, his dad probably would have said that if he was wearing a construction vest and work boots. "They were big on fighting injustice, and stuff. Probably why my dad hated them so much."
