Thursday Thirteen #46 -- The Wall of Fame!
 |
It all started when Trevor brought a new addition to the ShapeShifter Wall of Fame last week. He brought up the idea of showing you public what the Wall looks like. The Wall was originally Mitchell's idea, so he thought he should get to show you around. But the tour was Trevor's idea. While the two of them are busy arguing over who gets to share their stories, Eric's going to step up and fill the void. Thus...  1. This was the bra that inspired the Wall of Fame. We were backstage, getting ready for our set and some girl walked in the room, took off this bra, and draped it over Mitchell's head. He blushed. Trevor thanked the girl in his typical way and tried to steal the bra. I think he wanted to wear it. Mitchell grabbed it back and said it was going to go onto a new Wall of Fame. He kept that bra until we got home, and then he hung it on a wall in the practice space at Daniel's house. Now, we have our Tour Manager ship them home for us.  2. We didn't come by this one honestly, I'm afraid. We were in Vegas and Daniel dared Trevor to sneak into some showgirl's dressing room and make off with part of her costume. Trevor can't turn down a dare of this sort, but he didn't sneak. He picked a girl who was so gorgeous, my eyes hurt to look at her. When Trevor came back out of the dressing room, he said she gave it to him. Given the look she gave him when she kissed him goodbye, I don't doubt it.  3. I can't say anything without upsetting Daniel, but I don't believe this should be on the Wall of Fame. It's apparently Val's.  4. This bra belonged to a girl I dated for about a month. I met her in Seattle at a show and at first, she followed us in her own car. Three weeks later, she convinced a friend to drive the car home so she could stay on the bus with me. She only lasted on the bus with us for a week before she couldn't take it. We didn't stay in touch, but it wasn't for lack of effort on my end.    5, 6, 7. These belonged to this set of triplets who got past security. We were very glad they did.  8. Ever notice how gorgeous a basic white bra looks against darker skin? The contrast is amazing. I'm not talking about a girl with a fake tan that rubs off onto the cotton, either. The next time you see that white bra against a deeply colored skin, stop and appreciate.  9. Those Texas girls... We love them.  10. We've known the girl behind this bra for years. She shows up whenever we're in Minneapolis and the surrounding area, depending on how free her schedule is. Karina loves to travel, so we shouldn't have been surprised when she caught up with us in Paris. The best thing about Karina: she's always wearing this bra. Well, not this particular one. But this exact style. We've got like twenty of them laying around. Mitchell keeps asking us what would happen if we gave the other nineteen back. Trevor says once we start that game, it'll never end. We'll wind up passing the same bra back and forth between us. He's probably right.  11. I always thought there was something virginal about this bra (and notice how the white stands out against that gorgeous skin of hers). And then I met the woman inside it. I was right.  12. Trevor has a thing for demi-bras, especially when the girls are overflowing them slightly. You want to see that boy drool? Show up in one of these. I picked this one as an example because I really like the color.  13. Trevor brought us this one just last week. Something about it being left behind when he was hanging with some cool folk who tell stories in 100 words or less and the owner maybe asking Susan for it back, but we were all supposed to play dumb and ... oh, shoot. Susan's going to read this, isn't she? Umm. Well, then. Let me tell you the real story behind it. It's been here for years and we have no idea who Rhian is. Really. |

Levi's at Costco: $16.99
Way Cool Belt at Roberta Weissburg Leathers: $88
Keeping your pants from puddling at your knees: Priceless.
Best of all, the jeans in question are a size too small. Explain that.
I am so very rock and roll, aren't I?

Susan's Fashion File
My favorite activewear catalog is having a sale and I can't choose which color fleece to buy... Tangerine, celadon, periwinkle, or citron. Such a rock-and-roll-inspired choice...
But in some happy and not-really-long awaited news, I have found the coveted Dethklok shirts. MyTeeSpot's got 'em and I asked and yup, they're officially licensed. Right now, this is the only shirt in stock, but the very nice Jeremy Barasch at MyTeeSpot told me that they are expecting more soon.
So now I can be the only girl on my block in a Dethklok shirt, after all. I'm just not sure what color fleece to put over it when I get cold...
(If you haven't heard my rant about why you should make the effort to get only officially licensed merchandise, I'll be glad to rant at a later date. Let's just say it involves much, much more than making sure the proper people, who are often millionaires to begin with, get their cash.)
(We'll miss you, Coach Cowher!)
