Mike Patton style through the Years PART 1

Hope I'm getting better at this. Thanks to www.faithnomoreblog.com for the twitter encouragement!!

So what's your favourite Mike Patton style over the years? I've categorised it for you to decide!!

Pre FNM
We can see pics and videos of Mike from the mid 80's before FNM with Mr Bungle, he seems to have early signs of that crazy style he develops during the 'Real Thing era'. The beginnings of long hair and the famous 'zombie walk' he uses in 'Live at Brixton'!!!!

The Real Thing

Mike developed a bizarre hip hop style in this classic period, wearing baseball caps, basketball trainers and also suits with the trousers cut into shorts and those waistcoats (I adopted this for a while)!!! He looked anything but 'metal', in true Patton style stearing away from the norm and being the opposite of everybody else. He and the rest of the band wore provocitive tshirts and those various other muscians such as Primus and Sacred Reich, and of course the Bungle tshirts that we all so badly.
His Bungle roots were still apparent at this point wearing masks and that police helmet!!!! At this point Patton became a bit of a 'pin up' which I'm sure he hated!!
He soon got rid of his long hair in favour of a shorter cut, shaved underneath and with red streaks....very cool!!!



Angel Dust

This is my personal favourite era..... Mike had grown into FNM and was taking much more of a role in the writing and producing of the music, also his style reached an unmistakable orignality. His hair now shorter and slicked back with those cool little bits pulled down as sideburns, plus a little goaty beard (which we all grew!!). He also sported an eyebrow ring for a short time, which nobody else had and which I immediately went out and had done!!!
He was seriously cool!!!! His trademark crouch and crawling around the stage was copied by the whole 'nu metal' generation, and his ecentric genius behaviour began to florish!! The tshirts got better one depicting a man sat on a toilet with the slogan 'Girls are ok...but they're not the real thing!!' ha ha awesome!!
He also began experimenting with megaphones and cb mics on stage, as always pushing the boundries and changing the sound of rock music forever!!

FNM collectors....what is your most treasured item?

I have looked FNM merchandise and releases for years and have a huge collection.

This is my most treasured piece, admittedly I didn't have it signed personally but pretty sure it's genuine.

A friend revealed he had this, I have seen the cut to shape and clear variants but never this item with the green vinyl!!!!!! Amazing find :)
