So Converse recently released a line of Pink Floyd signature All Stars...
Add these to a growing list of band inspired footwear. What with declining record sales and a crumbling economy, methinks this might be an interesting solution?...probably not. Until Armani puts out the Tom Waits alligator skin loafers, here are some of my favorite rock and roll shitkickers...
(ok, I would totally rock the Descendents ones...)

UTD Field Trip: ORANGE OWL
Saturday night Up the Drunx snuck out and went to see a bunch of weirdos play music. Amps were toppled, Sleepies were heckled, beer cans were thrown, O.T.H. covered T.L.C. and Haunted Castle drank what appeared to be vodka from a giant machine gun/played their first show.
Old Testament Heroes tellin' shit like it is.
O.T.H.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haunted Castle
Dan Bones of Haunted Castle
Haunted Castle
Cartoon metal head Jack Crank. Much to the disappointment of all the Sleepies, Jack's band turned out to be rather un-heckle-able. To compensate we spent most of the time throwing garbage.
Drunkards.
Thanks to Jack, Dan and everyone residing at Orange Owl for opening up your home to potential destruction.
