i am sure Woody will sort it all out after cj . But if you want in you need to have either owned a parka , like scooters , seen quadraphenia , owned a suit , know what green onions was , bought mirrors for your pushbike , fell out with a ice cream seller on a beach or looked hard at least once . Oh music , toots , Rod n the faces , the who , the jam or two tone for the younger generation . you may have to wait until woody sobers up gets back from cj for confirmation
I have a US Army parka, a fred perry shirt, I've seen Quadrophenia about a million times, have the entire back catalogue of The Who records, and would love nothing more than to spend the whole of tonight in the Mod tent at Camperjam. Can I join?
Booker T & the MG's, Green Onions - also covered by the Blues Brothers ;D Green Onions is also a reference to the parking enforcement officers of the City Montreal Police Service
I guess i'm in as i still own a Scoot. ex A21 Animals SC member. I owned a parka. I also shinned up the flagpole at a builders merchants in Dartford and nicked their Union Jack. I then sewed it on my parka. I thought I looked cool but I likely looked a dick. I first saw quadrophenia the film during a double feature in Sidcup. The other film was Take it or Leave it. A film about Madness the band. Needless to say it was 50-50 mods and skins and fights ensued. I preferred the madness film tbh. The album is better than the film and I wish i'd never seen it. I spent a fortune at a tailors getting tonic mohair suits made up but decided not to get the trousers lined. Itchy just isnt the word. Both suits were ruined. One in a trip into the english channel via some 'mates'. The other sliding down the road after my rear hub sheared. I once had an 8" spotlight on the front of my scoot. As I went to stop at some lights, it fell off, broke and i ran over it and punctured both my wheels. This greatly amused the casuals sitting outside a pub adjacent to the lights on the Sidcup Bypass. Once the amusement was over i then got a kicking. I fell out with an ice scream seller in Margate as he nipped out of his van for summat we pinched a whole box of creme eggs and a crate of cola. Man i felt sick eating and drinking all those. Hmm, ive never looked hard though. Green Onions - Booker T and the MG's. The B Side is the cricket theme tune Soul Limbo. The Small Faces are mod. The Faces are more bluesy rock.
i will let anyone in , but you have to get your cv's up for woodys perusal when he gets back , everyones in as far as i'm concerned , except greasy rockers like HR --
I still have my booker T green onion 7" single and the crombie is in the loft storage, had a vespa too... That count ?
I could be on a winner here , i had air horns on my push bike when i was 14 ,i got them from a motor bike shop i worked at on saturdays ,i had a parka with furry hood and a tonic suit
I put lolly sticks in the spokes of my bmx as a kid, can I be in? Actually thinking about it the lolly sticks made it sound meatier than a scooter, maybe I should be a rocker.
i think we could join as my other half had a lambretta n used to go to scarbourgh braying all sweaties with hx sc . n i had some 2tone spencers ooo nice O0
Just seen this Ok your all in as long as your not one of them sweaty rockers wanting to be hells angels ???, see if this gets you moving ;D toots & the maytals - 54-46 thats my number
Can i come in now , i've been kicked out of the greasy wa bikers mob cos i started this , i was once th proud owner of a motobecane - 45 downhill with me parka done up , head down and leaning forward , my Mrs brother in law was a ice cream man and i fell out with him over a hand of cards once
OMG just watched that youtube clip, half mast jeans, Dm's (calf length), crewe cut and an harrington jacket. Did i really dress like that. Well proud to say i did. Love scooters had a Lambretta Cento 50cc.
