I just realized that we started this site December 15, 2003!
Thanks to everyone that has kept this place going even in the dark days when I wasn't around for months at a time. I'd give each and every one of you a hug (girls) and a high five (guys). I wish there could have been something planned...maybe Helldone next year? Or in year 13, which seems fitting.
Anyway, here's the very first post on this site. Feel free to admire the world class journalism!

? Alright, after a month of planning (read 'being a lazy ass') we've finally got this bitch ready to go! Because I felt there weren't many American HIM sites, we decided to make our own.
Let me answer some questions before you even ask:
"Where is the forum?"
- Well, I hate forums. In my opinion, forums are just a place for people to bitch at one another over stupid shit. So what if somebody wants to be completely unoriginal and get the exact same tattoo as Ville and Bam, let them. It's not your body. Also, it's annoying and sickening when kids today can't even spell correctly and use numbers to get their point across. I blame Avril Lavigne.
But I know a lot of you would like a forum, so here are my two choices besides the 9th Circle Street Team Board.
HIM Club - Bam Margera Message Board
"Is this site 100% complete?"
- Not really. We'll never be complete. Eventually I'll add a guitar tab page because I play guitar and am tired of seeing the same shitty tabs all over the place. When I find some that are accurate, I'll post them for you all.
Ahh, the BMMB! Those were the days. I was a die hard Bam fan back then. Thankfully I grew out of that. The guitar tab page still seems like a good idea. A lot of you are doing amazing covers already.
Thank you all again! Remember that I don't do this for the money (I'd be broke if that was the case, honestly I don't even know why I still have the ads running) and this is all just because we love the band. I'm so glad that I changed my mind and brought in a forum of our own. I highly doubt this would have lasted without the community. I would be just posting for myself in this dark room. Now at least I can still be in this dark room posting to the 8 of you!
