One of the best gifts i’ve ever recieved
so my band has played with this other band multiple times and their bassist is like the coolest old head you’ve ever met total OG hardcore, punk, emo fan. and on tour when we played with them in their home state i was talking to him about circa and how they’re my favorite and i guess he said he had an original Juturna era shirt he bought when he saw them at el torreón in like 05/06 im guessing? so on tour he said he’d give it to me and i must’ve hit weed after our set or something because i had no recollection of him saying that.
anyways his band came through our city recently and we opened up for them and i noticed the shirt he was wearing and had to say something before his set and jokingly asked “how much?” thinking he’d never sell it and he said “i actually brought it for you” and i thought he meant that he wore it for me cause he knew i liked circa so much. so anyways he got done with his set and i walked up to him like “great set dude and i’ve gotta say it again that shirt is the coolest let me see the back rq” and he said “oh well here i brought it for you” and dude just takes the shirt off and gives it to me. i haven’t been this excited about a gift since i was a kid i swear to god. i didn’t even know what to do with myself besides give him a free one of my bands shirts (severe downgrade) and i snuck our payout into their vocalists pocket cause they’re on the road and that doesn’t even feel like i didn’t enough.
so to my dear friend Tim, i know i already told you 1000+ times but thank you so much for this incredible gift (and sorry for calling you an old head i promise i mean that in the coolest way possible when i say it)
