Wrote this to amuse myself, with my own bad pictures and all, real DIY. Wanted to add bad videos too but it wouldn't let me.

Oh thank you for sharing it, I loved every word so lusciously written...most particularly the way you managed to capture the swirls of sound and the essence of sound itself...and the power of music.

I think maybe the garage rock revival and the Libs-Camden-thing was maybe one of the last moments where a group of young people felt that a band (or several bands) was expressing exactly how they felt about life...
Yes I think you're right...there was Brit Pop and Garage/Grunge (Nirvana/Seattle) but nothing much after that... I think you're right about Trampolene and their fans too.
Drug choice seems to be entwined with music tastes more than they were - such as Rave culture - whereas I just took whatever was being offered around that night...rather than go to a rave to take E.
For example the rap and hip-hop thing a few decades back, but now that has more or less become mainstream too.... So there must sth appealing about it for the underdogs of the society ;)) Very much so, I couldn't agree with you more, even though it has now become more mainstream...and clung to by middle class kids who crave being 'cool ( ... )

I actually wanted to answer yesterday, but you touched on so many things in you reply, which in turn made my thoughts roll in so many different directions ... that I drifted away completely. And then I fell asleep ( ... )
