🖕 fuk dat band Pink Floyd

[my-pulled-strings]

sweet lord in heaven. there's something inherently sexy with the way he slooowwwly slides his hand up the neck of his guitar before twisting one of the tuning pegs with such pressure 😩 like come on, there is no fucking way that he doesn't know what he's doing.

took a nap and dreamt of the dead kennedys - they were playing live and Ray had a comically long guitar neck and if i had to guess, it probably has 45+ frets. it's so long that he really had to stretch his entire arm just so he could reach the first few frets near the headstock...

not the dream i was hoping for but okay i guess ill take it

[rays-guitar-broke]

had to draw it before it could leave my mind

[rays-guitar-broke]

if there's anyone who deserves to be followed by Ray on tumblr, it has to be @halihalinabe. somebody stop me from tagging him on that immaculate drawing that she made 😭

[dreadlocksofthesuburbs]

RAY WAS ONLINE ON TUMBLR??? AND LIKING POSTS?? @eastbayray Me next 😈

I went to Iceland as saw jello’s whole dick staring me down like the green goblin mask

i really like that one Lard album called "2020's Dead Kennedys RPF must live!"

jokes aside, it really makes me happy just seeing that one new work, and i hope the author writes more <3 AND of course i'd love to see more people writing for the DK's because it's such a small part of the fandom that, in my opinion, had been neglected for too long—especially the creation of reader-insert material. christ, the first one was written way back in 2021, if i'm not mistaken—and there was nothing else after that. truly disappointing!

to me, the fan fiction realm of the DK's is like a garden that needs tending to, and looking at the state of it now, the seeds are only beginning to sprout :) i hope that months, or years from now, it blooms into a beautiful array of flowers, thriving off of support and inspiration from writers and readers alike 🩷

now, if you've got some draft sitting in your phone, laptop, or whatever, don't be afraid to show it! if you're itching to write something that you'd love to read in the fandom, go ahead and type away! also, i'm sure a lot of us are wishing that we were born in the 80s so we could've been a part of the punk scene, but i guess this is our way of taking part of the scene in this day and age—it takes place digitally, but it does exist.

with that being said, if anyone needs help, don't be afraid to reach out. i'm more than willing to help—translation, proofreading, or whatever. i WANT this part of the fandom to blossom. i'd love to see more people pouring their unadulterated love for the Dead Kennedys by publishing written works.

that is all, take care.

[dreadlocksofthesuburbs]

Yeah

[rays-guitar-broke]

i drew that stupid dumb idiot guitarist I HATE HIM I HATE HIM I HATE HIM!!!

[rays-guitar-broke]

not a lot of bands have been able to capture the unique sound of the DKs, but i think these guys did. of course, it's not an exact replica, but it does sound similar.

it reminds me of a mash between Riot (mid-song) and Holiday in Cambodia, especially the bass - you'll get what i mean when you give it a listen.

[dreadlocksofthesuburbs]

this is awesome af! the bass definitely reminds me of riot. i need to explore this band 🫡

[halihalinabe]

hali i am coming again in a time of need😢 i'd love to see you draw Ray petting a cat!! maybe a white cat with green eyes like the one he had in the past?

no pressure and take your time!! i'm willing to wait for yet another masterpiece from u🥰

here you are😸

[rays-guitar-broke]

RAY AND KEEKERS!!!!! LOVE THIS SO MUCHHH!!!
