jesus it's weird. observing young people when you're older is sure a lot different than when you're the young person. i was out at the baltic room last night to see my buddy dj, and my anthropological findings … well i guess they really aren't that surprising. all the kids belonged to the "regurgiate 80's fashion and music but with a contemporary twist" tribe. the music was a slightly updated variation of the repetitive music i used to dj. the clarity with which i could see people unsure of themselves defining themselves by their tribal affiliation, and broadcasting it to the world via their dress and choice of music… it's so funny, i was once them! i thought i was so cool, cutting edge, and original. i was really just good at sporting a costume ;). wow. i should blog this.
