So we're just strolling along, headed back to the station to go home, when we saw the most fantastic thing ever.
Groups of people dressed as 50's greasers dancing in front of the entrance to
Yoyogi Park on a Sunday afternoon.
Wow. Seriously, is this not the most fantastic thing you have ever seen? This little gang couldn't get their generator cranked, so they mostly just stood around, smoking and drinking beer, and watching the other gangs dance. How about that hair? What do you think it looks like without all the product in it?
And mind you, these were not teenagers. I would say the median age was about 40. There were 5 different gangs and they kept cranking up their music to drown out the other gang next to them.
This group was hard-core. They had routines and everything. This was the only gang with ladies. I think they should all have girls with poodle skirts. More interesting that way.
I could have stood and watched all day. I think we were there for almost an hour. The Best Day Ever.

Okay, that is maybe the most awesome thing I've ever seen! Can you picture that happening anywhere in North Carolina? I want to hang out with the dude with tall hair drinking beer and smoking cigarettes. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI know! I kind of want to go back every Sunday, but I'm afraid I would get all blase about it. I bet the freaks really come out when the weather's nice. I'll report back.
