1989 - 90

 

Having been kicked out of 335 Hillcrest, the brothers get a new house at 532 Ann St.

 

Fall '89
Carter and Jeff in California

Jeff gets a 6 month internship in Monterrey California, Carter decides to head out there also.  They pack up the van and drive out west en route to Las Vegas.  After about 5 free Vegas cocktails, it takes them less than 5 minutes to blow Jeff's $1000 relocation stipend on a few rounds at the roulette table.  So they spend the first couple of months in California living out of the van.

 

 

Party
One of the first parties at the new house on a day that sees a snowfall abnormally early in the year. This is a hard drinking party that sees the corruption of young Daniel Rock, a bar stool thrown through a window, and people hurling and pissing themselves.

 

 

Halloween
The brothers throw a party at the new Ann Street house during Halloween weekend.  Sjoberg's new band, Day Glo Orange, provides the entertainment.

shameless plug: the music from this evening is available at www.tunefilter.com.  Click on the album cover above!

 

 

Christmas Break '89 - Ft. Lauderdale
Having such a good time in Ft. Lauderdale the year before at the Gator Bowl, a group of brothers decide to head down there again for Christmas Break (from Dec 26 - 31).  Total chaos ensues.

Ode to Big Bill Roberts
During the 89-90 school year, perhaps fostered by the knowledge that he'd soon be shipped off with the Navy, the normally mild mannered Bill Roberts displayed a Mr. Hyde persona after the beers started to flow.  Encouraged by his brothers, the wild side of Big Bill created fantastic stories and insta-legend just about every weekend.  His antics included:

  • A fondness for whipping down his pants in public places and waving and saying Hi to all who would pass by
  • Taking a leak wherever he felt like it, including in a cup in a Greektown restaurant which he sat back on the table and accidentally drank from later that evening
  • Taking a dump in the 5th floor hallway of the Holiday Inn in East Lansing
  • Throwing up by the pool tables at Dooley's then trying to hug the waitress with a stringy of gurp swaying from his mouth
  • Getting kicked out of Dooley's for telling a waitress "Get me some beer bitch"
  • Passing out with a cigarette resting against his leg which burned through his jeans and into his skin (as can be seen in the photo above)
  • Drinking on a Sunday morning then going to church with C Hock to pick up chicks while dressed in the devils outfit he wore at a costume party the previous night
     

 

Winter '90 - Drinking Absolute in C Hock's Crib
Despite a long commute, C Hock decides to move back to East Lansing and the new Ann St. house after graduating and getting a job in Metro Detroit.  Strong concoctions of Absolute and lemonade punch and the latest The The album usually get a couple of brothers partying in C Hock's room at the top of the house.  The gang smashes most every piece of glass (e.g., windows, picture, glasses) and Bill Roberts tries to throw the TV out of the window during one particularly good evening.

The Final Party
The landlord kicks the brothers out of the house in May, a good month before the end of the term. So the brothers throw one last party in the house and kick in all the walls.
 

 

 

Summer 90 - City Club and the Ramada Inn, Detroit
During the summer, a bunch of the bros and little sisters rent a suite at the Ramada Inn in downtown Detroit. While the intent was to hit the City Club in the Ramada's lower level, much of the party ended up upstairs in the suite. The next morning, Hirk says good morning to the citizens of Detroit by pissing on them.
