[@strappaplank6017]

fair play to these people, but the last true Mods in the UK were the Perry Boys and the Casuals around 1980, Mod moves forward

[@4th_Lensman_of_the_apocalypse]

Been saying the same for decades lil buddy, well since about 78…..🤷🏿‍♂️

My mate who is a die hard mod for life type once said to me your more of a mod than most mods . . I was like urgh ??? irm not a mod , he said you are by definition a modernist because you like music , fashion , entertainments etc of the time you live in most of the type of mods in the film arnt realy modernists they are revivalists .

[@lennykelly9952]

Mod is a bout looking cool and nothing about music if you had to live in the same era it would be boring listening to the same sounds,that’s why mod bands from the 60s didn’t stay with the same music and style eg The Kinks,The Who The Small Faces and some of the looks in this video are dreadful.

[@stevenwatsham5973]

God.. Those Mod women look rough..!.. So glad that I am , or have been a Rocker!..
