    Who are you calling a cult?

    70s fashion victim. Local discos in high waist trousers, tank top and wedge shoes.
    Then I grew up and went punk. Stayed there ever since attitude and philosophy wise though my taste in music is varied.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    Smith and Wesson.

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

      Got the tail end of punk, had a mohawk for a day till my mum kicked me out of the house.

      All the sh!te in between I hated, 80's was awful with a few exceptions (Hip hop, early indie).

      Then raver. Never looked back.

        mid 80's rocker with sleeveless denim jacket with hand-sown patches (Slayer, Metallica, Iron Maiden) and black leather trousers or blue jeans. Short hair.

        Went more new wave and goth at the end of the 80's.

        Then came "house music", so I skipped that era...then new goth, industrial, ebm emerged and that's where I stayed.

        The Mission are playing in London in March btw...
        Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

            No wonder no-one missed me when I withdrew to become a full-blown computer geek. I was born Mr Invisible. At least no-one can steal my identity, I haven't got one.

            I haven't got an identity either.....
            It's Deja-vu all over again!

              You where a Boy George look-a-like.

              I was too young in the 80's........

                What he said, then disco, funk, rave, acid house, garage, madchester, new MOR (kooks, feeling etc).

                Now, comfy trousers and baldy head "turn that down" stylee.

                  I still have spiked hair and attend one live gig a week thanks to my local boozer.

                  Kooks are playing morecambe soon, sold out though. Will have to have a chat with the support to see if they can get me in.

                    As above, with a side order of anarcho-punk CRASS fan.

                    I believe my twenty year old self would be calling me a sell-out
