I was 11......... Went to the pictures to watch and ended up in the middle of a Mod/Rude boy/Skinhead barney........... Chairs were flying and the film got banned from playing in the town............. Happy days........ LOL
watching this inspired me to go out and buy a Fred Perry polo, polish the Docs and update my ipod with tunes I had almost forgotten ... I know now that ska is timeless.
saw this at the fliks.........the place went mental ...... came out knackered and soaked with sweat, but with the biggest smile for a long time......happy days
must have been fun in those days to just DANCE and have a good time. No pretentions, no so called VIP or cranky bouncers or shlock promoters play same old crap over and over. eve in USA at the time. Give me a club that play ska, reggae, 70,80 disco and good rap/r&b any day.
Really miss that era of music and shows...
