His girlfriend Octal
Is Octal a stage name or an actual name? If so does she have siblings named Decimal, Binary, or Hexadecimal?
I'll shut up now.

Octal is her DefCon/hacker name.

She is a musician, just not a metal musician- she makes noise music.

:) Well, I definitely have different groups of friends. Those kids are definitely fun as hell to party with, but only a small number of them are ones I would spend lots of time with outside of heavy metal related activities. The metal scene is incredibly heteronormative, sexist, and homophobic, and I find that for the most part I can headbang any differences out if there's some music to headbang to. But if we were alone in a quiet room? It might not be pretty.

There are exceptions, of course. That Lane kid that keeps popping up in these pictures, and his girlfriend, and probably Wes and his girlfriend, are probably folks I'd spend time with if I lived closer to them.

But yes, as far as hobbies go, heavy metal is definitely one that has the a lot of opportunity for crazy fun. Though I've definitely been to some totally insane knitting circles, as well.
