Humph Don't mean to derail your thread, it just amuses me that this is the example they chose."going goth" is (for some, not all), just a phase
The goths were my tribe. Up in Seattle goths could really take it seriously; I mean, 11 months out of the year you can wear all black and suffer not in the slightest. What was interesting was how "tribal" it was - the Vogue goths didn't much talk to the Fenix goths didn't much talk to the Catwalk goths didn't much talk to the MachineWerks goths. I mixed at the Fenix and mixed at the Catwalk and was friends with DJs at the Vogue and MachineWorks. And we'd have massive Goth/industrial bands (Lords of Acid, Die Krupps, Laibach, Front 242) at the Fenix and we'd staff so light on the security, particularly compared to the cover band nights. I asked one of the security guys about it once. He scoffed. "These guys? They're too busy trying to out-cool each other to get in a fight."
It's been 15 years and I'm still in touch with a lot of those folx.
... amazing. I love it.These guys? They're too busy trying to out-cool each other to get in a fight.
Anna-Varney Cantodea wasn't born a character from a F. W. Murnau movie.
I don't know that it's former. I'm pretty sure they still play aroud here, saw the at Hollywood park after the horse races right before they stopped doing them.
