I used to hang out we a group of friends about 20 of us in the late 70s to the early 80s. We was around 16 /17 years of age at that time. Some were mods who loved the jam , the new wave / punks were huge strangers fans and the skin heads were into the special's. We all went to the same parties , the same pubs and we all listened to each others music. There was not 1 single bit of bother amongst us . As you can imagine the juke boxes in the pubs were full of this type of music and we all put each others choice of music on. What great times.
G'day to you, in '71 I was given a Pair of Dockers for my 21st,before I knew it it was Braces and Crombie and shaved Head, I became a Scooter Boy, I am now 74 caint afford the Martens anymore, but still love SKA, 2 Tone and Reggae, thanks for this ,brings back great memories! Armadale West Aust.
Sadly that would be the lsast good years of the 60's/early 70's as the dark long haired flared Boot Boy look was coming in a year or 2 later and would of have to wait till 1976 and the start of Punk.
@@chrisr5499 We had a very strong English Vibe over here, it was hard to keep up, Suedes, Boot Boys , Scooter Boys , Skins and Punks of course! Armadale West Aust.
No one is just a Granddad...as long as you still have the memories then you are the sum of everything you ever were....just like the bloke above said.....im lucky enough to have a very broad taste in music and love it all
I was a MOD in the 80s and lived n died in Carnaby Street where I met so many skins punks etc etc . Great people THE LOT OF US as for the song mate when Setting Sons came out I would blare it out of my bedroom lol it was ok I had a mentally handicaped school behind me and used to get the kids there dancing haha great days and fantastic mems THANKS and can I join your club please 😁😁😁👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Like you I spent my Saturdays up Carnaby street in the early/mid 80s. Great times. Meeting Mods & Skins etc who descended on Carnaby street every Saturday from all over the country. We used to go on marches down Oxford Street and then down to Covent garden for a row with the casuals lol. Happy days!
That's such a good song and evokes so many memories of a time long forgotten. Weller is such a talented lyricist as well as musician and singer. I just remembered that I had a parka with various Mod patches sewn on. British Mods was one with a picture of a scooter with lights and mirrors on it. Think I had a PX125 at that time. Actually yes, Isle of Wight Mod rally is coming back to me. Wow, what a blast from the past. All this from your excellent video. Thanks for creating and uploading. Liked and Subscribed. KTF 👍😎
@@Saturdayskids-k8o have you thought about posting some regular community posts on you other channel, pointing them to this one? Only a thought. If I have anymore brain farts, I'll let you know 😉
I loved it Crombie, red hankie, two tone parallels , Ben Sherman shirts, Tasselled loafers or Docs. The music was great whether you liked Mod , Soul or even a bit of Rock ( Born to be wild).
Me and a few pals in the early 80s when we were about 12 use to go to a mod club on a Saturday afternoon in Manchester. It was on a tiny side street of Cross St and on the corner was a shop that sold all the mod clothing also . We use to get the train into Victoria station then kill a bit of time in the Arndale market . Then when it was time we would go down Market Street past all the punks sat outside boots and flick them the Vs as we passed , hoping to get a chase off them . Those were the days . Amazing times ✊️🏴
I’m certainly very aware of the teddy boys as my dad was one , I was bought up with Rock n roll playing daily … if your a teddy boy who wants to tell his story on video I’d gladly come and film you 👍
@@thekashman4566 We used to love giving the Mods a good hiding back in the early 80s, we hated them but it was just all good innocent fun back then, just boots and fists and the odd bike chain or bottle but nothing too serious that a Hospital surgeon could not sort out. Rockers ruled the roads back then .The thing about the Mods was every other group hated them, rockers, bikers, headbangers, punks all hated them, and we never really saw many skinheads as they were mostly glue sniffers lying about in parks ect back then.
When I was a kid in the 1980s the city streets would be packed with skin heads, rude boys, punks, Rastas, psycho billies, break boys, metal heads, Indi kids, suede heads, hip hopper and goths. Now there are no youth cultures left. All kids in the 2000s want to be the same and all seem to dress the same.
It used to be that pensioners went down to the day canter and had tea and biscuits, but now they put on Doc Martens and pretend to be skinheads and punks, Ah!! bless em really.
@@winstoniofarana7720 yes the trouble is nowadays they have shut all the day centers and the price of biscuits is higher than a pair of doctor martins ! ☹️

What about the first British sub culture and still going strong , the Teddyboys , know your history
I’m certainly very aware of the teddy boys as my dad was one , I was bought up with Rock n roll playing daily … if your a teddy boy who wants to tell his story on video I’d gladly come and film you 👍
Acknowledged,but the Teddy boys became the Rockers,who were the lowest subculture in that late 70s era,speaking as a MOD 🤙🏾

@DudeEnglish sadly that’s very true , I believe we were fortunate to live in the best times 60s,70s,80s … we were very fortunate indeed 👍🍻
As much as i love Lambrettas i think they are ruined with all those mirrors and lights on the front, they look a complete mess and serve no purpose.
@@TelfordO I hear what you say , and the accessories have always been like marmite , love them or hate them the mods have always applied them 👍

Can't do that Far Right
Those genres all from the streets, bar Manchester for a short while the latest generations need to work harder.

Today's kids are culturally and musically poor, they just don't realise it.
It’s a different world now mate , I personally think we were fortunate enough to grow up in the best times 👍
Real Skins or boneheads?
College drop out art students? They all looked as thouigh the circus had come to town.
Wattie ten seconds in looking grumpy cos two of his band mates have superior Mohicans.
Love this. Thanks.

People can be so so silly.
And now the country has finished with all this middle Eastern culture
