Or that you feel a bit chilly.

'Pedestrian quality on stage' makes me think you see an exceptional amount of walking gigs, which makes me think maybe you've confused a public intercourse with a local hostelery.

Or that poor old Slavo has wandered on stage still looking for his car.

Oh man, you have no idea. There's one guy downtown around here who plays a loop of Comfortably Numb while doing a tapping pattern over it for 20 minutes at a time while walking up and down Queen street.


I want his autograph but every time I see him, he's busy soloing.

I am nominated to be in my school year book under the fashion section for "indie" fashion.

It's not so bad a thing for kids to emulate what they like, it's entirely normal. The special ones have a look to their clothes that isn't marginally different to the others, apart from the look in their eyes, their body language, and what they say.

Two girls were discussing my look and what scene I fit into recently. They settled on "clean-grunge". This was based on the fact that my hair is longish and I'm not dirty.

I might not have really dressed to emulate anything when I was in high school but fashion is liberating. When you're that age, there really isn't much you have control over but if you can choose your wardrobe. You can choose to follow a scene or you can choose not. It's just those who take other people's and their own fashion so seriously as to undermine that liberty that cause so much suffering.

i don't really care about how people dress, in general. we all have role models and we all have looks... maybe not so shocking as other looks
but i never met one single person who goes into the store and buys random clothes. it is always determined by other people's looks.

on the other hand...scene -is- shit, fashions shit. emo trend is bullshit. i didnt had a problem on emos because i thought their clothing was ok.. not shocking for me at all.. then i saw this guy talking to a tv camera

- why do you call yourseves 'emos'?
- because we are emotional people.
