Should I wash my Sk8-Hi Vans I wore at PJ20?
Should I wash away the memories of the slippery slopes of Alpine Valley?

Should I?

    No way, man! :D
    Let nature takes it's course! Those beauties need to evolve and cleanse themselves by the rain and puddles of memories made by continued use and more PJ shows to come.

    I thought this was going to be about the song, in which case I would always say yes to Wash.

    I would take a stand and refuse to wash them until the bootlegs are released.

    I know it's hard to imagine, but you can't keep dirty shoes forever. Take the Long Road down to the Oceans, throw in your shoes to Release the dirt. But don't just wash them. Wash is overrated, and wastes the spot of a good opener.

    This may be steering off-topic, but i absolutely love the photo of the shoes! Suitable for framing, imho.

    These shoes are made for walking.
    Shoes don't have memories - they are in your heart.

    Agreed, I still have these dirty old vans which I wore on a 5 week road trip in the States and I haven't cleaned them in three years. I let the memories stain and clean the shoes and now they're in storage.
    Go listen to John Frusciante right now!

    Haha, thanks all!

    Will keep them as is and bring them along on the PJ tour this summer.
    Lets see if I can clean them in the mosh pit with some sweat and some lager... :P
