Anyone remember Bank Holiday Monday August 1984 at Brighton?, a little 12 year old skinhead sitting on the shoulder of another big skinhead! 😀 as we all marched from the Richmond pub to the beach and through West Street, we all got locked in the subway to the beach by the old bill and they took our boot laces !

"rampage" ? More like a relaxed gathering

[@johnnyb8825]

A lot of second wave skinheads (late 1970s/early 1980s) seemed very confused. Not just cos of the fascist/Nazi stuff, but also cos many of them hated mods. A lot of them were too young to remember the original skinhead days of the late 1960s and they didn't even know that skinhead started as a mod offshoot. Even some of the second wave skins who were into two-tone/ska hated mods.
