Hey me too!

Let's start a clique and exclude everyone else!

I'm all for it. A clique of two. We'll open a club called "Shag and LaoTze's Atomic Replicant Juke Joint". People who wander in not wearing the requisite PKD pistol replica and vintage aloha shirt worn over a Taoist Tai Chi Society t-shirt can take flying f***!

straying (pun) from rockabilly to blade runner, but you could argue that the bar scene in blade runner had some subtextual exotica imagery. the film noir (duh) club atmosphere, the asian themes, the brightly-colo(u)red drinks, the moody lighting... i haven't seen the movie for several years but this conversation connected that synapse for me.

sidebar, the streets of blade runner's l.a. are full of scenesters, notably punks, swingers, cyberpunks, (hare krishnas?)... &c. &c.

i start a blade runner thread in this forum...
