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...

Imagine someone as bald as Buster Bloodvessel from Bad Manners, only with a goatee, who has been asked on many occasions if he is one of these nationalities
Iraqui, Iranian, French, Jewish, Russian, Turkish, Greek, Spanish...the list goes on
My sister's friends, when they see me, don't believe I'm actually related to her
The musical mix in my neighborhood, at least with my several sets of friends from around age 10 onwards, was very strange. I was in with the Mods, the Skinheads (not the evil ones), the Breakdancers at one point, later on the Punks, the Goths and the Metalheads. I calmed down around 25/26 though
