ageing punk rockers...

i went to this photographic retrospective tonight on the punk scene by bev davies. it’s was good but weird and a little pathetic at times.

the photography was good....but some of the people...OMG...can you say time warp?! eeekkk....nothing worse than an ageing rocker...except maybe an ageing punk rocker! it was a little sad...seeing people who just don’t seem to have move at all from that point in time...a point that get father and farther away.

ok...i know i can be guilty of that at times...with some things. we all do it to an extent. i’m sure many think i look ridiculous...a 40yr old with a stripe in her hair and piercings. i do think about that from time to time. when it looks like you you were frozen it time...every thing except the wrinkles that is! that is when you have become a charactature of yourself.

the show brought back some good memories though. one thing i noticed when i looked at the pics all these people who looked odd at the time...are just fresh faced young kids. nothing to what punks look like today. you kinda forget those things. many of the musicians look different then i remember them....b/c you remember them how you want to. memories are funny things.

iggy looks the same though...iggy never changes! hehe
