hello from Michigan

[shaggydope]

i'm mike. i've been around here for a while but not very active in making posts. i hitchhiked from PDX to detroit over the summer and it was pretty awesome. i'm staying in michigan for the winter, then taking off for an indefinite period of time in the spring. i'm reading as much as i can about trains so i can ride them next year. i'll probably have to go it alone since i doubt anyone hops out of michigan. i like Glam Metal and Weed. have a nice day y'all!

 

[EphemeralStick]

Glam metal? sounds interesting to me... welcome to the site!

 

[farmer john]

http://squattheplanet.com/members/neomaxxaki/ Glam Metal is the shit!

@farmer john: right on dude! i was going to do it no matter, but having a friend to go with would rock! i was just looking at google maps trying to figure out what yard i should check out.

 

[Loseralan]

Now I'm a bit curious. As far as the Glam Metal goes, are you more old school or do you like the resurgence era of the early 2000s?

 

[shaggydope]

old school. nothing after the 80's

 

[JungleBoots]

Farmer ussually hops off the milwalkie junction, i hopped my first train with farmer. hes fucking sweet to do that shit with...

[shaggydope]

as soon as there is no snow on the ground i'm ready.

 

[shaggydope]

i'm very, very happy i made this introduction post now! i had no idea that anybody hopped out of Michigan.

 

[Loseralan]

Checked out Prong before? Not really glam, but its close and they still tour.

 

[shaggydope]

[JungleBoots]

[shaggydope]

[MunicipalWaylan]

Welcome home Shaggy. Were you living in PDX before you hitched out? I used to live out there.

 

[shaggydope]

yup. i am a Portland native. i moved to Michigan when i was 13 with my family but i moved back to PDX like 4 years ago. i lost my job in PDX at the start of summer and was bumming around there for a few months on the streets before i decided to GTFO. thankfully my parents are housing me up for the winter here in Michigan.
