Reggae in the suburbs
August 24th 2006 11:19
You won't even come across a guy like this in Sydney's suburbs
Normally my day is based around reggae and ska. Yes I go to uni and I have a wide variety of interests, but a lot of my thinking is on music and much of my time is spent organising, corresponding and listening. It's all about ska and reggae.
This week is different. I have had to put everything aside and focus on trying to get a career. It is exhausting and I can't wait for the weekend. Not once have I spoken to anyone about reggae while I have been at school. Music isn't really a focus of the teachers and so entering into said conversations just doesn't happen.
So I ask, is this the general experience of people in the suburbs. Do reggae fans not get the chance to talk reggae and ska to strangers when in the burbs? Do people hope for someone to bring it up?
Sometimes the inner-city is just draining, but without that connection to reggae I just would get too bored. Bring on the weekend. Friday and Saturday nights gigs!

I don't think it has to do with my geographical location. More-so the people I hang out with. My Fault I guess.
Majority of my friends are into R&Band sometimes it sux. I wanted to see Matisyahu live down here but no one to watch it with me.

Of corse, I'm still proud of Sydney, and when it comes to Interstate arguments, lol Sydney over Melbourne any day haha.
