Alpacas with (post-)punk hair

Alpaca # 1 strikes me more as classic Bowie than post-punk. Otherwise, excellent.

I was into Alpacas' early stuff. You probably haven't heard it.

They're considering a reunion tour next summer, I hear. Standard 80s-era Brit band US reunion tour: three shows on the east coast, one in Chicago, and two on the west coast.

(Not the first time I've seen the pics but they still make me happy.)

This pretty much equals my self-image during the 80s.

Oh god, on the subway today I saw a man with the most perfect bleach blond punk-punk side-wave-shaved top thing. His look was so complete and he looked so confused I wondered if he just missed his connection to 1982 and now just wanders time and subways alone.
