[QUOTE="Hawkeye, post: 536787, member: 9200"] Lost Soul, You were mentioning 90's nostalgia and neon clothes. Check your memory again. Neon colored clothing was all 80's. Neon yellow, green, blue, pink etc... were all mid 80's colors. I know this for a fact. Back in the early to mid 90's when Pearl Jam and Nirvana were big, I was flipping through the stations and saw one of their videos on MTV. Everyone was wearing dark somber colors: Brown, black, hunter green, stripes etc.. The much was dark, depressing and angry. I turned to the next station, which is VH1 in our line up and they had a rerun of American Bandstand from 1985. The kids were all wearing bright lively clothes, white, yellow, bright orange, light blue etc.. and were dancing to Katrina and the Waves, walking on Sunshine. They all looked happy, dancing their lives away to the music. They wouldn't become that dour, somber lot until 5 years later when they had graduated college and realized there weren't any jobs available for them. I know, I was one of them. Now if we can just convince some of the girls today to wear parachute pants. Hawkeye [/QUOTE]
