Wally, you're not regarded as evil because of the denim and the leather. The embroidered svastikas on the other hand...

More Forum mail from reader Wally Swift: Kiss73: zphage: forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/shenanigans-as-gabriel-era-genesis-fans-in-the-1980s.910906/These shenanigans of mine were actually performed in my bedroom that I shared with my live-in girlfriend. She wasn't a party to the hi-jinks though. And not only that but shortly before that relationship I was writing back and forth with a female Genesis/Gabriel fan in Florida who was new to tape trading at at one point she started sending me suggestive pictures of herself and inviting me to come visit her. And today she's the lead singer of a band called The Beagles.

Which caused more casualties, the dropping of the atomic bombs, or the Japanification of our youth, our rock n roll youth?

That could be worse. Youth could embrace American fads such as hip-hop rather than proper rock ‘n’ roll.

While clearly just a commercial and publicity endeavor for artists, I view all RSD releases to be semi-charitable - in that in order to buy one, consumers must actually go to a record store and spend their money. Ideally this is a local, independent shop. There is something (a very small something) that is anti-corporate machinery about RSD, I'm into it.

Yeah, but the Japanese still do classic rock ‘n’ roll better than Americans ever could hope to: And here’s a documentary on one guy who has fully embraced the lifestyle: In the documentary video, the old dude running the shop is correct – the rockabilly scene in Japan was pretty crazy back in the eighties. Back then, Yoyogi Park was always full of greasers dancing around to boomboxes with blown-out speakers. (Unlike the nearby Takeshita Street in Harajuku of today which has become mecca for Japanese teenyboppers and gaijin weeaboo, back in the eighties/early-nineties it was the place for greasers to buy their gear. There was even a shop called Love Me Tender which had a life-size statue of Elvis out in front:

Nothing more anti-corporate than buying a bunch of stupid shit you don’t need.

While some of the Japanese rockabilly crowd seem to have taken their infatuation with the lifestyle to comically over-the-top levels, they sure seem to be having fun.
If I was ever in Yoyogi Park and came across one of the groups in action, I would definitely stop to watch them actually enjoying music – something dynamic-range-obsessed SHites seem incapable of doing.
Here’s another video of folks having a grand ol’ time:
