The rest of the Goth Challege that I've woefully neglected
Day 23 - Your favourite artist or photographer.
Dali is my favourite artist of all time. Also fond of Kandinski and Picasso.
As far as photographers go, I am so happy and proud to have worked with two of my favourites: gothindulgence and Stephane Lord
Day 24 - Name the best websites for Goths
Head to www.kambriel.com for amazing clothes
http://www.netgoth.org.uk/ for events now it's functional again.
http://www.gothic-charm-school.com/ is a great site for newbies and elders alike
Day 25 - Did you ever consider leaving the subculture?
I'm not exactly doing the best job of staying in it right now! Working as much as I am at the moment I'm struggling to do much at a weekend other than collapse in a heap ~ but I still love the scene, and would never leave because I have met and maintained so many of my dearest friendships as a result of it. And I still always love it on the rare occasions I get out!
Day 26 - Show a photo for every year (or month if you're new) that you've being into Goth.
When I first got into goth you had to put film in cameras...
There is also a big chunk from which no photos remain. I'll do a seperate post on this one as it'll take a long time, and also an effort to remember what year pictures were taken!
Day 27 - The worst thing you ever did to a newbie
Aww! I've never been mean to newbies! I guess the worst possible thing I've done was ask them if they've heard of *insert various completely made up band names here* which of course they'll say they have. Then go round looking a bit of a plonker. But then this also works on anyone who's up thier own arse with bands.
Day 28 - Do you consider yourself an eldergoth?
A bit of a badge of honour, so it's a bit like giving yourself a cool nickname at school. But I have been called one, so I guess so.
Day 29 - What do you think will happen to Goth in the future?
They will discover how to graft bat wings onto the skin and goths will become a master flying super race that ravage crops and scare farmers.
Or maybe people will just continue to go out on the weekend dressed in black and dance badly to Sisters of Mercy. The people will change, the attitude will probably change, but it'll always exist in some form or other as long as enough people are of the same dark mindset. Which I think will never really die out.
Day 30 - Make a list of blogs you regularly read and link to them.
Other than LJ and facebook I don't follow any external blogs! I just don't have the time!
