And the 80's glam looks are very popular. I think many young people also want to dress to fit the events they go, so a more traditional look for more traditional parties and full on cyber look for industrial parties. A great way to do it!<br /><br />I think the most popular outfit in Lumous festival is black jeans and a band t-shirt! And it's great to not have to dress up, it should always be an option :)Karoliinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188827517099416861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-86291869411338687452013-03-14T17:56:38.422+02:002013-03-14T17:56:38.422+02:00Yes, and I do hope it lasts a long time!

In my home town all subcultures are a pretty common sight, because it's a town with a huge student population so young people come here to study and have fun. In Finland we generally keep to ourselves, and in big cities you can get some negative comments, but I think they are pretty rare in Tampere where I live.Karoliinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188827517099416861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-49712104626413772462013-03-14T17:52:51.657+02:002013-03-14T17:52:51.657+02:00Jotenkin sellanen myytti on saatu aikaan!

Kateus nyt on tosi inhimillinen tunne, ja ehkä jos siitä ei olis muodostunut niin "kriminaalista" niin tämmöset projisointimyytit olis vähemmässä, kun vois vaan reilusti sanoa että jumaliste kun olin siitä ja siitä vaatteesta/tukasta/kengästä kateellinen!Karoliinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188827517099416861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-28030814302054715382013-03-14T17:50:27.010+02:002013-03-14T17:50:27.010+02:00It's also creative to combine things you'v...It's also creative to combine things you've made yourself and things you can buy!

A lot of awesome glamrock looks too that I rarely see over here in Belgium. I've been going to goth parties for about 9 years, and here it totally depends on the city and party. The parties that focus mainly on electro and industrial have a bit more cybergoths (and steampunk), while the ones with more diverse music also have more diversity in fashion. The goth parties I usually go to draw a lot of people that don't nessecarily dress goth, apart from mostly darker colors. I guess I fit into that 'category' as well, since I have a very eclectic sense of fashion and don't always dress up to party, but I still love the music as much as I did all those years ago and to me that's most important :)Pearl Squirrelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10336643469650930035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-17820142991095990502013-03-11T01:40:55.501+02:002013-03-11T01:40:55.501+02:00Very well said.

There aren't many Goths at all where I live, but quite a few of them are quite varied in their tastes too. It's even more varied in London, but I did see more cybergoths there than here in the north of Scotland.The HouseCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07783576090040274742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-37454231093012921742013-03-07T12:51:27.403+02:002013-03-07T12:51:27.403+02:00I.

En ...Tästä olen kyllä sun kanssa ihan samaa mieltä. En tiedä, mistä tää käsitys siitä että ihmiset klubeilla tsekkaisi toistensa vaatteita pahalla silmällä oikein on lähtöisin (puhumattakaan kilpailusta kalleimmista Lipparin kuteista?), koska ainakaan mun kaveripiirissä en ole sellaiseen törmännyt. Vaikka tietysti jos näkee bileissä älyttömän upean ihmisen, sitä voi helposti tuntea pientä kateutta siitä miten joku voi olla niin hyvännäköinen (tai luova, jos henkilö on tehnyt vaatteensa itse). :) Toisaalta musta tuntuu, että eri kaupunkien skenet on hyvin erilaisia, esimerkiksi pääkaupunkiseudun bileissä on mun mielestä jotenkin hyvin erilainen tunnelma kuin Tampereella - myös musalinjauksissa tuntuu olevan paljonkin eroa, ja mä oon jotenkin aina tuntenut Tampereen bileet enemmän "omiksi".

When we has to make clothes and look more for music and everything. To day with internet a hole new world has open. <br /><br />I come from a smal city in Småland in Sweden and we dont have any shops with funn stuff ore anything. <br />But i moved when i was 20 to a bigger city. <br /><br />So in One side i like that we had to be creative but on the other side its easier to Find stuff in shops ore on internet. <br /><br />Some part of me realy miss the 80 s :) <br /><br />So realy i dont know what Im trying to write. <br /><br />I like the old time but i allo like this time. <br /><br />Thinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17805793940913045706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-36088292631925461222013-03-06T09:32:06.964+02:002013-03-06T09:32:06.964+02:00I noticed when going to bed that I totally forgot ...I noticed when going to bed that I totally forgot to mention in the text that people can wear many styles depending on the occasion.

Mutta oon ajatellut jotenkin sillai, että se on skenen elinvoimaisuuden kannalta tärkeää että tulee uusia juttuja ja että soitetaan uutta musaa ja sellaista mistä yleisö innostuu, joten kyllä mä kestän sen pari biisiä Blutengeliä sillon tällön ;) <br /><br />Mun mielestä nyt on jonkinlainen trad goth revival, jos kattoo vaikka millasta musiikkia uusimmat suomalaiset goottibändit tekee niin se on tosi "klassista". Esim. Loistava Polku, Murnau's Playhouse ja Wreckdance kuulostaa tosi perinteiseltä ja mä rakastan sitä! Hocicosta tykkään kyllä itekin, ehkä se on jotain post punkin ja konemusan välimaastoa meidänlaiset kasarihenkisetkin tykkää :)Karoliinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06188827517099416861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706845667701969479.post-90952168581125705682013-03-05T20:21:35.334+02:002013-03-05T20:21:35.334+02:00Menikin pikku tovi lukiessa, enkkuni ei kuulu minu...Menikin pikku tovi lukiessa, enkkuni ei kuulu minun vahvuuksiini.<br />Tällaisia mielipidekirjoutuksia kun lukee/tekee, alkaa miettiä itsekin asioita tarkemmin ja eri näkökulmista. En minä sitä tarkoittanut että kaikkien pitäisi heittäytyä samanlaisiksi, vaan ylipäätään mietin onko tuo 80-luvun tyyli kuihtumassa, koska kieltämättä monissa tapahtumissa näkee suurimmaksi osaksi cyber-gootteja ja bänditarjonta on alkanut olla enimmäkseen konemusiikkia. Kyllä siis itsekin kuuntelen esim.Hocicoa jne mikä nyt vain korvaani miellyttää!<br />Suwieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033085888347709237noreply@blogger.com
