Blast from the past as some of the subjects of my pics turn up for the private view at Turner Contemporary. A mix of (former) punks and skinheads from the Margate area. Oh, and a goth. Some had been part of more than one subculture, including rockabilly.

A new play by Alice Nutter of Chumbawamba fame, which explores the subcultures of punk, rave and the protest movement from the 1980s to the present day. Well worth a listen. Here is Alice Nutter back in the 1980s, the time that hairdressing forgot.
