This is her. I have an backup downloaded of theapes.com, here's just one of many pages of pictures with comments describing who's in them: https://i.sli.mg/vYJUrl.png

I edited out the file:// portion to just show what was the old URL to that page.

I could zip this backup and make a torrent if anyone's interested. 450MB or so, so it won't fit on git.

EDIT: also the "BEST DC" in the background looks like a book to me.

So I visited their website theapes.com and here is the 404 error page http://theapes.com/index2.html

These are some seriously sick individuals guys, we need to stop them.

Here is a link to an article, that I believe should raise some eyebrows.

It seems pretty normal for the most part, except one thing.

Question:

So, does this make DIY spaces more difficult or does it just depend?

Answer:

Some of the best shows we’ve played have been in basements but other times it’s been like a living nightmare. Like, you get to the person’s house and it’s like, two kids on the sofa. And they’re like, “Hey, we can fix you some food.” That happens a lot. But it’s still fun.

Why would a band that has been "touring" since 1999 [according to their websites "diary"]., including Europe in 2002, commit to doing small events, at a private home, for two children? Especially given the type of music they play and the genre of "art" they like to display and joke about. Lets not forget, they said:

That happens a lot. But it’s still fun.

Mind you this article was written in 2012. The first concert at Comet Ping Pong was in 2006.

Last thing. I would like to point you to, is Ms. Amanda Kleinman's state of mind. Below is a copy from her website blog. Notice the author is MajesticApe.

MONDAY, APRIL 21, 2008: How to Have Fun with Your Favorite Junkie: posted by Majestic Ape at 8:24 AM

How to Have Fun With The Family Junkie

  1. Steal his shit first

  2. Hide the spoons

  3. Switch his brown chewy lump with clustered snake turds

  4. Rat on his dealer

  5. Write on his face with a sharpie when he's nodding

  6. Dip his needles in pee- pee

  7. Put tacks on the bathroom floor just before he vomits

  8. Tell him his poetry sucks

  9. Change the locks and bar the windows, this time for real!

  10. Put him in a straightjacket to induce withdrawl and pump and pump a Tammy Faye Baker sermon through the speakers at full blast.

Im just leaving this out here for people to archive and examine on their own.
