Band. Fans. Friends. Music


Add your own review!

Overview

Black clothing, backcombed hair, belts, doom music, berry jenever. The new-wave (or post-punk) culture of the eighties is revived. Learn about an impressive cultural phenomenon or reminisce about your own past. In 1981, after a gig, the author met the band that would change everything. The Comsat Angels were an English band, more popular in Holland than in their own country. New-wave Holland embraced the group, who toured there often. Inge van Sombri� attended many of their gigs, became friends with the band and still thinks they are the best band ever. The new-wave music world is portrayed: what are sound checks and gig posters, how do backcombing and hair spray work, which colours can or can't you wear? Don't be uncool, and learn how (not) to be a groupie. Images of the 'dark' 1980s illustrate this story about a band and a fan who became friends. Illustrated with private photos. A beautiful portrait of a subculture of the 1980s.
