Proof that I had a colorful childhood, a perennial internet favorite.
Have your mom make you an adult version of these!!
My mum went through a stage where she insisted on making my clothes too, sometimes this was good sometimes it was not, haha. I still remember picking out some particularly offensively intense fluorescent patterned fabrics.
I absolutely love it when you post photos of these overalls. They’re so rad.
I would one thousand percent wear those overalls today. Looks like you’ve ALWAYS been a fashion icon!
I got superb Mork & Mindy vibe!❤️
I feel like if your Mom made and sold these today, the Youths would be snapping them up!
Very colorful. I had more of an Anchorman look. :D
Gold. Your hair is a little longer now, but you still look the same!
bring this look back. black t shirts, out, this, in.
You had cute little girl friends too!
I remember that sweet and funny little kiddo.
Little bobby dazzler 😊
And with this post, life is complete.
GQ smooth right there!
I need this in my size…
Wow, you can so see its you! 🤩
Omg so cute
Awwww😁
😁💕
Today I'm grateful that I know how to fall properly and roll because it can be a life saver. At the very least it has the potential to make injuries far less severe. Now I'm off to get kicked and punched, participating in the sport that has helped me learn so much about how to survive and thrive. #nakmuay #muaythai #muaythaipunx
Jesus, man…glad you’re okay…years ago I got bumped into the curb by a bus…flipped over my handlebars, badly scraped up and badly concussed but overall fine. Was the last time I rode without a helmet.
Crap, that must have been a scary experience! So glad you are ok and know how to roll with the punches! 💛
CHEESE AND RICE. I’m so freaking thankful you’re ok!!!! No more close calls like that. Goodness gracious.
A solid training in combat sports can save life in very different ways.
Glad all turned out well. Lots of German drivers don't seem to get the idea that bicyclists are fully valid parts of traffic. Can't count how many times I've reported cars that decided that the bike lanes are perfect parking spaces.
So glad you bounced well and are feeling okay. Eddie had a non-wreck bike accident our first and only bike ride in Germany, and is awaiting on a call to schedule shoulder surgery for a fully torn rotator cuff. Getting old(er) isn't for sissies. 🙁
I'm glad that you' re okay! Please be safe! Wtite some song from this experience like The fall of the Saint or something like that. 😁
Austin - I'm glad you're ok! I have a distant memory of you at May Creek when we were kids and you flipped over the handlebars of your bike going down a very steep bank behind my mom's house. Do you remember that? (Also entirely possible I have invented the memory, or it is an amalgamation of events!) Here's to a lifetime of learning how to fall and get back up!
I’m glad to hear you are ok❤️
Happened to me last month. Stay tuned to your body. Although I had no broken bones and some road rash, I experienced back issues a week later. Gkad you were not seriously hurt.
I'm so glad you are okay!
Like a true stuntman!
Shite! DO you wear a helmet in Germany???
How do you feel now that a few hours have passed?
Damn! Sorry to hear this ! Glad you’re OK. In what city are you located ?
Tuck and roll!
So glad you are ok.
I must now ask you all, is it time to end the great hair experiment of 2021?

Never…keep growing 👍
Whatever keeps you feelin confident! You know the winter makes it hard to find holiday cheer 🎄
This is just the tail end of the awkward grow out phase. Keep going and you’ll have a luxurious mane that would make Roger Daltrey jealous.
I think the long hair is lovely, but I can certainly understand wanting to tame it a bit.
You don't want to chop those beautiful locks when winter is setting in. I've decided to let mine go until spring and see how it feels. Love ya brother.
Not until we have seen you rock a french braid or a "Kränzchen". 😁 (Sorry, don't know the english word. It's when you have two braids and wind them around your head like a wreath.)
Long hair really has been a great look for you Austin! <3
Whenever someone with beautiful rich full hair asks if it is time for a haircut: everyone will yell : nooo keep it… but that also means you won’t see how it would look with a short hairstyle. I think it would be cool! Also, if there is this wish for a change: go for it!
If you got it. Grow it. Many of us don't have the option anymore.
Speaking as someone who lost their hair before 30, I will always encourage the hair growth of others. Let it grow!
1. Keep the hair. 2. Don't listen to hair advice from straight men. Most of us have no clue. :D
Love the natural waves..keep em rolling in some form
No. I love it
Let it rip. I called my expHairment off and now I’m boring balding 50 year old Dad again and regertful
I love the curls but every hair needs some shaping and a cut...I love having some long hair...but to me, you rock any hair style or cut \m/
Nooooo, I love it like this..
For those of us not blessed with such a fine head of hair this is such a hurtful post which just rubs in our faces how we’re not blessed with such beautiful, flowing locks........ Nah, just kidding mate, nurture that mane as long as you can!
Enjoy it while you have it! 😁 😉
Do what you you need too boo. Live your best life.
Keep it long! It looks great on you.
Man bun time bud!😁
No! It looks great!
Looks good.
you mean exphairiment? I'll see myself out.
Keep it growing.
I know it's ridiculous and I might have ruined this song forever but my band and I had ourselves an outrageously good time recording this version of "Alone In Memphis". Sorry not sorry, it was just too much fun to not make happen. More importantly, you're welcome. "Alone On Christmas" is now ready to make your ears smile, forever and ever AMEN!
Link in comments/bio.
You emo heart throb!
Brilliant.. and there are sleigh bells, every Christmas song should have sleigh bells. ❤️
This is fantastic! Move over Mariah Carey. We have a new Christmas classic!
Dood thank you. I’m already anticipating being alone on Christmas. This song at least has me prepared a little more. I would love to cover this at my next show. Again thank you Austin Lucas
I love that you took poetic license with your own song and I REALLY loved it, Austin. Just mentally kept changing one line of the lyrics to "Wanna give my presents to the poor..."
Alone in Memphis is one of my favorite songs by you and always has been so I can’t wait to here it! Now this should be a treat!
Really cool song!!!👍🏼 Hope to see you again in Münster next year!
My husband rewrote this as 'Alone in Southsea' and sang it on our wedding day! If he gets to mess with the words then you definitely do 👍
I love it! How about record your favorite Christmas song and release the 2 songs on a limited edition Christmas 7in!! I’d pick up several copies as gifts!
Austin, this is a fantastic reworking of one of your classics. Not many folks could pull this off. Well done!I’m now officially in the Christmas spirit! 🎄🎄🎄
Love it! It's right up there with Fairytale of New York as a song that might save this otherwise insipid genre
Brilliant! I love it. 💕
I love it! ❤️🎸😁( Mainly because I am generally alone on Christmas, and have to work on New Year's Eve!)🤷♀️
I was a little nervous about it but I love it! ❤️
This is a banger mate! One day I’m gonna catch you at a show when I’m in the states with your full band, your acoustic shows in Plymouth are always fun but god damn I want to hear it with big backing sounds!
I ain't mad at it....y'all had a good time, it don't sound bad, everyone wins
Since it's looking more and more like I won't make it to Germany for Christmas (and wouldn't be able to see anyone if I did), this may become my theme song for a very solitary Christmas in Tampere. The train Wifi sucks so can't listen to it yet .
You have yourself a seasonal hit … yes! Did you have to pay the authorial rights to that Lucas guy?
It's amazing! I am waiting for the Christmas album 😉
I love it! “Don’t wanna dwell in yule tide hell …” great line.
Never apologize for having fun 😉😎
You're just fab! ox
How good is this!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
This is awesome! 💘
I'm sorry to report that due to exploding infection rates, the rest of my shows in Netherlands and Germany through till the end of the year will be cancelled. However, partially due to lower infection rates and through diligent cooperation of club owners, staff and promoters, the concerts in Denmark and Sweden are scheduled to proceed as planned. Come masked, get tested, and make sure you're vaccinated. We will be sure to have a fantastic time together.

Really sorry - we had already given up the hope to travel from London to see you in Berlin a while ago as it seemed like it wasn’t sensible/possible. Hope Martin Furlong , Sam Harrison and I can see you in 2022.
This shit is terrible. Make the best of it stay healthy and safe and have fun. Looking forward to seeing you near /in Berlin soonish 🥰🤙
Best of luck in Scandinavia! <3
So sorry to hear about that. Difficult times indeed!
I am confused, today I received a email that your concert in Berlin is not canceled? Will you play at 4th December in Berlin?
😪😪
😞😞😞😞❤️
Sorry to hear that. Alone On Christmas is great spin on my favorite song on that album though, excellent work. :)
Stay safe out there.
See you @ Richter 🤘🏻😍
Nothing but the best content for my friends. This is how you own the right wing chuds in a way that gets nothing done, except make all the punks fall over with laughter.

“i called a conservative morning show and tried to name as many punk bands as i could before they caught on. t.co/2D3KyTZQ1R”New Found glory to you guys 💕
Austin Lucas saw this earlier on Dummy Room Podcast. So fn hilarious!
With the way things are going, my show tonight in Wiesbaden might be one of the last chances to play any live music until next year. If you're in the area, come hangout in a larger sized, covid safe environment TONIGHT and hear me play songs and tell stories. The gig is at MARLEEN, which is in the mall near to the Wiesbaden Hbf. 19:30 doors, acoustic adult emo (country) sensitivity starts around 20:00.

The daily pandemic reports from Germany are scary as hell. It looks less and less likely that I'll be able to go to Frankfurt for Christmas, or at least that I'll be able to see anybody or do anything if I do. Have a great gig, and more of them as long as it's possible!
I still hope the show in Stockholm will happen in 2021
Will you play in Den Bosch, Netherlands on friday?🙏

Thks Austin Lucas
Adios Spain, you are full of amazing people and delicious foods. Truly, I miss you already!
Spain 🇪🇸 has always been my favorite 💜💜💜
I have a day off in Basque Country before I fly home tomorrow. Eating Paella by the seaside is undoubtedly what the kids these days call "lit."
A paella to say goodbye to Spain is absolutely right! We've been lucky to have had you on (and off) stage these days. Come back soon!!!
The older I get the more my expectations change of what the word “lit” means to me. Paella by the seaside ranks pretty high on the lit list for me! Enjoy, stay healthy, stay safe, and keep pickin’ them strings!
A paella meal is always memorable, especially if it was made with saffron!
A few years ago in Spain, by the seaside I ordered gazpacho. It took ages to arrive and then it was cold. 😰😆
My partner is Basque. He visited once when he was a kid and it sounds like a magical place. Lol... I hope I can visit one day.
Are you... Basqueing in the beauty and history of the region? I love that area.
I think last year's kids would do it. Once we're in the know, it's over. :D
I just heard the kids don't say lit anymore. OOF!
Hey is the gig in holland on friday still on, with their new corona rules?
#transawarenessweek post.
So it slipped past my radar but I wanted to take a moment to say a few things. It wasn't long ago when I'd guess that #transawareness was one of the only people that I knew on a first name basis who was trans. When she came out and for a good while after, the issue and fight for visibility and equity, while understandably important, was an unfamiliar, far removed and marginally uncomfortable/unknown equation in my life. Fast forward to now and I have come to find this beautifully diverse community vitally important in my life. Although it was daunting taking on the task of reading literature, having open and sometimes hard, bumbling conversations about things that are often uncomfortable. I found that by applying myself to learn more and gain new tools and perspectives, I could have a positive role in facilitating safe spaces that provide measurable allyship for the trans members of my community.
Why am I centering myself in this? Purely for the reason that if I can go from a place of almost zero comprehension and virtual discomfort, to a place of increasing understanding and assisting in the formation of safe community training spaces, inclusive towards dramatically under represented people. Specifically/ ESPECIALLY in sports that are notoriously, aggressively transphobic. If I can do this, I believe anyone can take a single step towards trying to understand the multifaceted worlds and struggles of trans people to be seen as human. Anyone should be able to find common ground, and getting started can be as easy as taking a few moments to familiarize yourself with basic terminology and premises. Even a small effort can make the world a safer place for a diverse group of marginalized human beings and all it takes is a little will to do the right thing.
I believe in you, you got this.

Honestly dude, it doesn't even take as much work as you put into it. Just accept that people have the right to be who they want to be, and respect that. Boom! Lazy man's way to not be a worthless piece of shit. It's good that you put in the work, and beyond my simplistic approach, growth is the most important thing. For those of us who are a little older, it's also a matter of forgiving ourselves for the ignorance of our younger days. Transphobia / homophobia was ingrained into us when we were young, but there's no reason to stay that way.
I believe in live n let live I don’t care if you’re yellow black or white I love you just the way you are
You are such an inspiration to many, Austin. I’m so glad I discovered you just to keep up with your amazing human self!
I love this so much 💗
You know some of the things you say will get a negative response from idiots but you say them anyway because they need to be heard. Please never stop doing that. Thank you!
