“Don’t Take it Back” by Pink Houses
Back when I was 17 there were some things that I believed. Some of those things I still believe.
“Sanctity” by Dystopia
This song represents how I feel about all this goddamn snow
considering going home in april for this, at ryan’s suggestion. Idk I feel like I am sucked into being 20 again whenever I am in lansing.
Also there is tons of stuff happening in grand rapids over the next several months that I wish I could go to. It kind of sucks that going to grand rapids/chicago/lake michigan in general has become less of a reasonable thing to do for just one night.
I could multi-task though and make it a date for friend panopticon tattoos, though.
I just heard this album yesterday (maybe because I have been sucked into the black hole of working too much for like a year) but its insane. so good.
I should really be reading instead of wasting time on last.fm
When I think about my life, I feel so unprepared
— “El Paso” by Jason Anderson

We are collecting stories of how people got into the band/shows they saw/memories/testimonials etc.
It would be awesome if you wanted to contribute. It doesn’t have to be fancy or well-worded, we’d just like you to leave a record of your experience and get an idea of what Bikini Kill means to you. Maybe it’s your reaction to a song we wrote, something weird that happened at one of our shows, a personal anecdote or just WHATEVER. Send yr story to bkillarchive@gmail.com and we will post it or just leave a comment somewhere on the site. You can also send us images to post.
Please help us spread the word. To document the history (or herstory) of the band it is necessary to include an oral history from “the fans”. We say fans for lack of a better word—a more expansive term would be inclusive of friends, peers, comrades, co-conspirators and imply participation rather than an audience separate from the band—which is what we hope to achieve with this interactive approach.

“Willing Suspension of Disbelief” by Abe Froman
I regret being too young to go see Abe Froman when they were active in town.
Giving it another shot EVEN THOUGH if offends my delicate sensibilities about the appropriate usage of saxophone (minimal, please) since the self titled is pretty much officially my favorite album of the 2000s.
Last night I dreamed that there were flyers up promoting an upcoming Black Eyes tour.
Obv I was disappointed when I woke up.
I'm an 23 year old woman in grad school studying Medical Anthropology. I'm from Lansing, MI & currently live in Cleveland, OH. This is just a collection of things I think are neat.
