heh, well, i can hardly cast stones, since i'm the same.
it's okay though, i've got a pretty good image in my head.

I used to hang around with a load of older kids, like 16 and 17 and one of them had a scooter, and he was a proper Mod (think Quadrophenia in style). We used to go over to his house and listen to Bad Manners and Madness and all the old Ska stuff from Jamaica.

that's how much of my musical education happened too. although i didn't actually know any mods... i guess i must have stumbled into ska all on my own. i really got into it when i came across a ska band busking on a bridge. they were so great i asked them if they had any concerts planned. they did, that evening. i went, ended up going out with the bassist for about a month, and he took me around to every concert going on in the city and i met all the bands. followed them all for years after that. aaah, happy times...
