The Society of Cool
Read the following quote from Mojo, by cook, Marco Pierre White, and I think all Mods will agree the man's a t****r. I expect his food must be as greasy as he is.
"Every young boy has to make one important decision in life: whether he's going to be a rocker or Mod. In the 60's I remember seeing the rockers chasing the Mods and I loved the pride the rockers took in their bikes, their leathers, the sound of their machines. They were hard. Us rockers are still standing, aren't we? Mods just don't have that longevity. Why? Because rockers have integrity."

Its no coincidence that his surname rhymes with something that is appropriate to him. I am glad he (or Ramsay, or that mad guy with the triple glazed specs) are not Mods as it would put youngsters off it in the future.

Perhaps he suffers from the condition "False Memory Syndrome" or to put it another way he's a fantasist.
So much for rockers having "integrity".

Well, i remember in my youth going to a rockabilly concert and told myself, "wow they really grow bad, i don't wanna look like that in my older days". In fact old bikers look like cavemen for most. The dirt is a symbol. The more the leather smells, the more they proove they sat on their greasy machines.
The old mod grew up in the elegance, his suits are always smarter and his mind always sharper. I don't want to dig up war axe between Mods and Rockers but we know what we are and why we are here.
This moron should remember how the characters end up in "easy rider"! Yes, where does he live? Does he have a computer? Does he watch too much "sons of anarchy"?
His article is a symbol of nowadays journalism objectivity.........
