Didnt know you were from Stinkadena!!!
I remember Dead On…”Beat A Dead Horse”… they opened for King Diamond way back in the day, and I went dressed as him to that show in Houston.

The dorkier ting was one of my friends roommates went with us, and after he saw the King Diamond make-up, he drew a Blue Oyster Cult symbol on his forehead! Lame!

Dude, the guy dressed up as Tommy Lee in the first picture looks like Frank N Furter. Has he ever considered the job of a RHPS extra? xD

The dorkiest metal thing I ever did was paint myself up like King Diamond for a halloween party when I was 19 (about 9 years ago now). I got enough odd looks from the people I was at the party with that it necessitated my leaving early because evidently the hosts weren’t comfortable with the upside down cross on my forehead.

@Sammy: Thanks for the kind words. MetalSucks has always been my favorite blog of any kind so I am honored that they let me spill my nonsense here every now and then.

@ Metalmartyr: That’s pretty brave to post those pictures, Corey.

Yeah, more like pretty stupid. There goes any chance I had at running for office.

kinda like how i made a shirt for my band when i was about 16-17. it was just a white hanes tee with the band name on a big beer can that said “6.66 percent alc/vol” and “finest brewery in hell” or something like that written in marker. equally as sad is the fact that i showed up to band practice with it and the rest of the band loved it and all made their own. pretty gay, huh???

Here I thought liking Limp Bizkit as a kid was embarrassing, sheesh.

I can’t remember having a most embarrassing metal moment, I imagine there are quite a few, I can recall standing in the yard as a kid swinging my head around(and I had Ozzy’s hair too, the Sabbath hair), singing the opening line of Crazy Train and strumming a rake along with Randy in my head only to turn around and see four members of my family giggling.

Does that count?

@Dmatello- That is truely awesome…

When I was single I was having sex with this chick and some song came on the radio. I don’t remember what song it was but I said: “aww Shiiiit” and was about to start humping to the rhythm of the song but she started to panick, thiking that the rubber broke or something and kind of ruined the moment for me.

Well, I must say, I cannot even start thinking about trying to compare with you guys, seeing as you’re older than me of course. Most of you stories take place while you were in high school… Well I’m still in high school…

I too was in a talent show in high school where we did a lip sync to Shout at the Devil. We were called Roadkill. We had risers made out of concrete blocks and 2×4′s. We convinced some cheerleaders to rush the stage and tear at our clothes. We got 2nd place. We beat the band that did a real cover of Enter Sandman. They just kicked me out of that band 2 weeks before, because I wanted to start doing more aggressive covers, and branch into grunge. This was ’91. I got revenge on those douche bags.

As someone who actually was an adult throughout most of the ’80s, just about everything “metal” I did or wore was dorky (in retrospect, of course).

Oh, and it’s good to see you as a writer here, Corey.

I dressed up as Lita Ford for an 80s party once… leather pants and all lol. Anyways who needs to dress up when you can just get drenched in blood from a Gwar concert – no costume needed (turned my blonde hair pink for a “bloody” month). Oh and for Halloween one year me and a few buddies dressed up with make up like the guys from Immortal, it was wicked.

I still own a sleeveless denim jacket with patches all over it. I still say its the most metal thing that ever metal’d. Also I black metal scowl in public all the time without thinking about it.
