It was decided that I would assign [a few] quotes from my quote book to characters, so lets start with my characterization of these ones :3

John-

“I’ve run out of bones to break.”

“I was a very gay child.”

“We have already established this, I am dying at 24.”

“You’re grabbing them with a hook and dragging them across the bridge, whether they’re kicking and screaming or going willingly.”

“I’m bored, lets to kidnap and murder someone.” (+ Alex)

“I was wishing death upon my child to cardiac arrest.”

“You either give your pain to your grandmother, or tap dance.”

“I hate myself.” -John, “High five!” -Meade

Alex-

“The weight of mars is 69 litres.”

“I suck on the youngest form, I like them before they’re ripe.”

“We’re celebrating the death of our mental states.”

“If the labour isn’t producing, get rid of it.”

“You can be burning at the stake and I’ll be laughing!”

“It’s like a mental asylum, we pass notes and then I eat it to get rid of the evidence. I’ve eaten every note you’ve given me.”

“I’ve been torturing kids since I was 16. I torture them 5 to 7 daily.”

“You go girl. I booted that bitch a long time ago.”

“Can I take your nail bones real quick?”

“Look at a founding father and say ‘fuck off!’” (to Washington ;))

“Math puts me in the mood for war crimes.”

“I dont have a strangling kink! I swear!”

Lafayette-

“Imagine being an egg yolk. - Lafayette

“JESUS IS SPICY???”

“I apologize for your deformities but i will do nothing about it.”

“How do you know what grandmas taste like?”

“My arms are my legs. neigh.”

“Spontaneous combustion is my favourite type.”

“When im ready, you’ll come out of the closet.”

“I’m going to periodically feed you starbust.”

“I have a sudden urge to log roll everywhere and knock everyone over.”

“Time to go marinate. think of yourself as teriyaki.”

Meade-

“When the lesbians jump, you know the beans are good.”

“If you had a coconut, would you use it on the soap?”

‘good enough. its beautiful right?’ “that’s what i say about my life.”

“A few dozen microbes in the atlantic ocean need your help.”

“Kindly, shut up.”

“I don’t particularly enjoy being growled at.”

“If you’re depressed, don’t be.”

“We’ll exterminate your bitches.”

“Traditionally, bullying doesn’t require consent.”

“Don’t kill yourself that would be ironic.”

Washington-

“By the looks of it, essays [correspondence] is traumatizing for all of you. i will look into bringing in a therapist, we will have family therapy.”

“Stop throwing the emotional support pickles!!”

So I might be watching too much Bones recently but what if we make up a police detective mystery with the Aide-de camps?

I sort of already have a vision. This is so far what I have:

For the protagonists we have Meade and Tilghman as a comedy duo

Washington is the head of the police station

McHenry is the forensic medicine expert

Hamilton is the bright youth of the team that everybody questions first if he is old enough for his position.

Laurens is the newish addition to the team (his role is depending on if we stay with irl timeline)

(Also yes, there is the secret office romance thing going on but if it's modern day, we can change the homophobia to no work realtionships allowed.)

Feel free to add more!

The Black History of No Doubt 🖤🤍

In 1986, Eric Stefani and John Spence met and bonded over their love of the anti-racist UK ska movement while working at their local Dairy Queen.

With John on lead vocals and Eric on keyboard, they formed Apple Core. Which was later changed to No Doubt after Spence’s frequent use of the term became an inside joke for the group.

John Spence (Traci Vicars Brown)

This catchphrase also spawned an early track of the same name with Eric’s little sister Gwen Stefani and John Spence on vocals.

Gwen Stefani and John Spence (Traci Vicars Brown)

Spence was most notably known amongst early No Doubt fans for his infectious energy and on-stage back flips. Wherever Spence went, the rowdy youth of Orange County followed.

In the lead up to one of their biggest shows yet, the members of No Doubt were blindsided at the news of Spence’s untimely death.

On December 21st, 1987, John Spence had passed from a self inflicted gun wound at just 18 years old.

The band was devastated and played their show at the Roxy as a final goodbye, not only to John, but to the band he had co-created.

Early No Doubt Lineup Featuring John Spence

However, after deep thought and a break from the music, they ultimately decided that in the spirit of John and his love for music, that they’d continue on. Their first song without Spence being a tribute titled “Dear John”

“You're singin' in a band with a mic on in your hand

The way that you would sing really made me feel all grand

You left your friends alone, right upon this earth

I wish you would've seen how much life was worth…”

John Spence (Eric Keyes)

With Gwen Stefani still too timid to take over full time, trumpet player Alan Meade stepped up to take the space John Spence had once occupied.

Like Spence, Meade became quickly know for his amazing stage presence and spirit. With Meade and time, Gwen Stefani began to break out of her shell.

Alan Meade and Gwen Stefani

Although often mistaken for Spence in images and videos of live performances, Meade was so much more than simply a “replacement” for Spence.

Much of Gwen’s later vocalizations are adaptions of Meade’s choices in demo tapes of songs such as “Boucing Shoes”, “Get A Life”, and “Doormat” to name a few.

Another black performer that deeply influenced Gwen’s vocal style was ska icon and lead singer of The Selecter, Pauline Black

Pauline Black of The Selecter

Alan Meade’s time as the lead singer of No Doubt was short lived as the news of his then girlfriend’s teen pregnancy in 1988 led to his departure. He left the group to focus on his family, yet would regularly make surprise appearances at their shows and perform with them for a song or two.

The members of No Doubt and Alan Meade have stayed connected throughout the years and he eventually went on to join members of Save Ferris in the creation of a new ska group known as Starpool.

Gwen Stefani and Alan Meade during the Tragic Kingdom Era

In the early 90’s, Gabrial McNair and Stephen Bradley would join No Doubt as backing vocals and the “horn section” of the final lineup.

McNair and Bradley, often seen as a team, have maintained their musical relationship with Stefani the longest out of all the other members of No Doubt.

1998 MTV Music Video Awards

Being a part of her backing artists since the early 90’s with No Doubt and through all of her solo efforts as well.

The pair still performs with her to this day and are often not included in descriptions of No Doubt’s lineup, but all fans know that they are just as vital as the rest of them to the band’s massive success.

Gabrial McNair has also toured with Green Day, co-founded Olso in 2005, composed music for film & TV, and worked with multiple artists in-studio.

Stephen Bradley too has toured with Green Day, Smashing Pumpkins, and Steel Pulse. He has also released solo work and is a talented photographer/videographer as well.

‘Rock Steady’ Jamaica Recording Sessions Crew

For their fifth album, Rock Steady, the band desired a Jamaican dance hall inspired sound, collaborating with numerous local artists/legends.

Including Bounty Killer, Lady Saw, Sly Dunbar, and Robbie Shakespeare (Sly & Robbie), to name a few.

This also marked the beginning of a lifelong musical partnership and friendship between Pharrell Williams (of The Neptunes at the time) and Gwen Stefani.

Gwen Stefani & Pharrell Williams for Vibe Magazine 2005 (Albert Watson)

In addition to the impressive list of collaborators on Rock Steady, the band also worked with one of Stefani’s greatest inspirations and favorite artist, Prince.

In the same year, she got to return the favor and provide backing vocals on his 2001 track “So Far, So Pleased”

“He was such a genius that you can’t believe he existed. I was onstage with No Doubt in Minneapolis in the Nineties, and I saw his silhouette in the audience. I was like, ‘How is this happening?’”

Gwen Stefani on Prince, Rolling Stone Magazine 2016

Since the band’s initial breakup, Stefani has collaborated with artists like Eve, Dr. Dre, Saweetie, Fetty Wap, Slim Thug, Andre 3000, Snoop Dogg, Akon, and most recently Shenseea on Sean Paul’s “Light My Fire”

Without the insurmountable talent of all of the artists covered in this post, No Doubt would not be the band it is today. The influence Black musicians have had on members of the band (of all racial backgrounds) is evident in their discography and should be recognized.

I wrote this post in hopes of highlighting the often forgotten side of No Doubt and to celebrate Black History Month, but every month is a good month to recognize Black excellence :) Thanks for reading!

"In the space between light and shadow,

In the space between sound and silence,

Where orion puts down his bow,

Where the seeds of the sky are sown to the soil,

Where black turns to blue,

That's where I'll find you."

I am happy to have it in my power to mention the merit of your friend Hammy [Hamilton]. He was incessant in his endeavours during the whole day—in reconnoitering the enemy, and in rallying and charging.—But whether he or Col. [John] Laurens deserves most of our commendation is somewhat doubtful—both had their horses shot under them, and both exhibited singular proofs of bravery. They seemed to court death under our doubtful circumstances, and triumphed over it as the face of war changed in our favor.—Independent of any prejudice I may have conceived for Colonel Laurens in consequence of his virtues, I cannot but speak of him in terms of the highest military deserving.—Colonel [John] Fitzgerald also, and Colonel [Richard Kidder] Meade claim the greatest encomiums—The former received a slight contusion. Even the Secretaries caught the general contagion, and had the audacity to put themselves in places of danger, and to share some of the honors of the day. I wish I could do justice to his Excellency [Washington]; but you will hear of his conduct and the singular talents which he unfolded with the effects they produced in the complexionary the combat from other hands.

Source — James McHenry to Elias Boudinot, [July 2, 1778]

James McHenry recalling the Battle of Monmouth, which was only a week prior to the letter.
