.. every chic heart, skips a beat..

Brighton played a massive part in the skinhead fashion of the 60's, 70's and 80's. The ska, reggae, all before Oi came about. So any pictures of the recent great skinhead rivivals in brighton. I dont go much but are there a few skins still knocking around the Albion these days?

Tiptoe through the North Stand,with your boots on,get your head kicked in.
Oh tiptoe through the North Stand with me.

Laurie Henderson vanished without a trace,
and they did the skinhead moonstomp on my face.

Any revival should follow the British fashions of 1969 and 1979 and not the early 80's bonehead with extra high docs and bleached jeans. Also needs to stay away from politics.

Some skinhead left his mates and approached me, in the late 60's, by the Level as I was walking up Ditchling Road eating an ice cream. "You got bovver?" he enquired. "Yes", I said, "but he's just a baby". He just stood there with his mouth open, and was still there when I crossed Viaduct Road, some minutes later. I thought he said "Brother", but then I was only about 9. Cool story n'est ce pas?

For sure skinheads were sharp dressers all through the punk years (the real punk years, not the fake Garry-bushell-invented Oi! that enabled him do write-ups on his untalented mates and earn them a nice little payday from the gullible) but they were also the most reactionary anti-punk nazis, low IQ rottweilers that the likes of Jimmy Pursey initially patronised until he realised he had no control over them. If The Kids Are United my arse.

I'll be one of those DJ's!! Been a skinhead now for 20 years!! The Skinhead Reunion is a great place if you are into any aspect of the scene, whether its Oi, Ska, Punk, 2-tone etc. No politics, just good beer & great music!

Oh, & if you're anywhere near Chichester on 21st February, you can hear some heavyweight Skinhead Reggae for free!!

The late 60s skins did look the part from pictures I have seen.

This clown needs to find some pictures of the original skinheads.
