 | More on the goth quest, this time following one of those odd six-degrees paths - Ciphergoth, via Ben, has a photographic record of goth gatherings at Whitby (redeye actively encouraged). From which we learn that goths sure know how to party, and also how to make bacofoil do physically impossible things.
Particularly groovy are the piles of cat food intermittently visible behind the action of the picture. Apparently this is because, to ward off any unhappiness from residents about the sudden arrival of several tons of goth, visitors to the Whitby weekend are asked both to contribute to the fund to repair the church roof and also to contribute a tin of food to the local abandone cat's home.
This reminds me of the bit in Hebdige about the rehabilitation of punk, and is very cool indeed. Especially as the local vicar is apparently generally of the view that this tenebrous invaders are a thoroughly bad thing but still ends up in the local paper being given a big cheque from Lord Gorgamoth Skumflagon every year. Tee hee.
