We’ve got what the monkeys can’t have.

After listening to some screamo stuff, I couldn’t help but wonder, how many of them in 10-20 years time will look like this guy:

That has gotta hurt. Seriously, what runs through peoples minds? I can’t sing & I can’t really play any instruments. But if I make sounds of throwing up into a microphone and try my best to eat it, someone out there is bound to like it!

Which brings me to my next point. People that like screamo. I’ll be honest, a bit of it in the right kinda song can sound cool, but then you get bands that have albums & albums of the stuff. I mean, sure it saves on rehearsal time but why would you want to listen to all of it?

Looking at that guy’s shirt reminds me of a customer I had earlier. Why is it I kinda like cultural African dress sense?

Don’t get me wrong, I think it looks absolutely ridiculous. I think the guy on the left agrees with me. But there’s no denying the idea that it looks comfortable. Once you get past the explosion of colour and interesting choice of headgear, you’re left with what is essentially a glorified bedsheet.

The guy I served earlier had a green one and I’ll be honest, he looked like an out-of-place Christmas tree. A very comfortable spruce, but still, I just wanted to layer him with tinsel and put a star on his head.

One last point on the Dashiki (that’s what those robes are called, see – educational blog this, you’re learning things :P ), if you are going to wear one, don’t wear it with black shoes. You’ve broken enough fashion boundaries by leaving the house in your ancestor’s pyjamas, no need to wear his shoes too.

See now eskimos, there’s a culture that knows how to dress!
