Ok your right about that, I do realize that you can't really put it in some sort of black & white picture. And that people tend to move more fluidly as you put it. Still isn't it so that Hippie as a culture wasn't exactly an entirely new Phenomenon. That's why I mentioned the Beatniks, since as a culture it was kinda similarish. The complete newsreel does show mods, rockers and beatniks.There's almost too much delineation here. People tend to erect Chinese walls round these groups and in fact things were just a tadge more fluid.When I wasn't yet in my teens I saw teddy boys gravitate from drapes and crepes to Italian "bum-freezers" and winkle-pickers. Some went eventually towards the rockers, some towards the mods, but then the guys from another town that you might have fought at the beach weren't a lot different from the guys in your school or workplace that you actually got on with. The beatniks started in the 1950s; many were jazz fans, and a lot of those would have gravitated to modern jazz and a "cool" way of dressing, and maybe eventually towards the mod scene. The guys singing in your beatnik clip were singing songs by Leadbelly and Willie Dixon, which the mates of the guy who lived next door to me (a couple of years older than me) were listening to on their record players - and they were early 60s Northern mods. Some of the mid 60s beatniks on your clip would have gone on to become hippies...
His story doesn't ring true if he is 53 years old, as stated. If he was born in 1953 it is more believable. Its quite close to some of my own memories, except for the violence. We generally only fought with boys our own age (usually at football) and mirror images of ourselves. Any aggro was incidental, except at football matches. We were only interested in having a good time. Other people were invisible to us.
Well Ek, so it's 5% maybe? To tell the truth, i don't know, but the skins you hear of here lately are usually the far right guys...
£220 -240 for a great daytime boot ( look proper with jeans ) .. last 20 yearsA very different price range to work boots -£300 v £45 ?
I've seen them in person and worn daily by a friend of mine. Def worth the money.
The Chocolate Brown with Dark Brown/Black Reverse were more popular locally to me.
Your weigh about a stone heavier after a downpourBeen looking some for a sheepskin, but i'm sorta having second thoughts; How well do they cope with rain? Will it ruin it? This is one rainy town
Pics from the Renoma party in Paris, October 22, 2013. Notice the decoration around the golden years of Renoma. The old Minets were there indeed... Some originals from the "Drug".Interesting to hear about les Minets still keeping it up! Thanks for sharing.
