Re: Mod and all...

Punched up for being a fuckin' mod? Back in '64 guys got stabbed, kicked in the skull, booted hard up the arse and slapped across the head with iron bars for looking like a mod. (Mostly it was superficial, mods were a minority group despite what the nostalgia mongers would have you think)

Only thing John Lennon said that I ever took notice of:

When asked, 'Are you a mod or a rocker (biker/greaser)?' John answered, 'I'm a mocker'
