Proof... if it were needed...

...that young musicians really are "Special Needs".

This is a conversation Ken had with one of our young musicians.....

Ken: So, you got anything good planned for this weekend?

Muso: Yeah. I'm going to a 70's & 80's themed fancy dress party.

Ken: Cool. What you going as?

Muso: A teddy boy.... and my girlfriend is going as a Pink Lady.

Ken: But that's the 50's

Muso: Is it? But Grease was from the 80's?

Ken: Yeah. And was about the 50's.

Muso: Oh. I didn't know that.

The party was in Bedworth, so I guess nobody will have noticed.

God love him. I'm looking forward to the photos.

Grease was from the 70's, you pleb!

But I agree, the youth today are pure dipshits.

Apprentice at work didn't even know what Back To The Future was, he'd never even heard of it!

Yes it was, I went to see it when it came out at the cinema what is now JJB Sports.

Academic point though..... it was set in the 50's and so doesn't qualify as representative of the style and culture of the 70's.

Teddy boys and 'Pink Ladies' are firmly rooted in the 50's.

Guy's a total retard.

Case made.

I think grease 2 was filmed in the 80's, so I guess we could let him off Sound...

But it wasn't set in the 80's, was it! (missed the point entirely)

Yes, they were. They used to wear very tight fitting drainpipe trousers.

One of them used to own the Bonkin Donkey in Nuneaton

Yes... mimicking 50's style. Mud were very similar as I remember. And Marie Wilson. Then there's Stray Cats, Shakin' Stevens (who actually came from a West End show about Elvis), Alvin Stardust.......

All modelled on 50's style - you're not going to get this intellectual midget off the hook THAT easily!
