Joe “Hardcore”
Straight Edge since Dec. 4th 1999
I’ve come along way from the long hair and the confusion between metal and hardcore of my early teens. I am closing in on 30 and I have 3 kids. When I am not bustin’ my ass as concrete laborer I am either booking shows or swordfighting in the SCA. Yet no matter which hat I am wearing or which role I am in, I feel as if it is my personal commitment to a straight edge lifestyle that gives me that extra breath, extra push or stronger foundation in each or any of my endeavors. As I learn more about life and its ups and downs I can say with a straight face (no pun intended) that being straight edge has provided me with a clearer mind to navigate through the muck and mire.
