Man, you guys know a lot about stuff. But, sorry, Hokoten was not about the rollers. The rollers had been there forever, even before the Takenoko-zoku and perhaps Meiji, so they still kept their place near the Yoyogi-koen entrance by virtue of seniority, but they were mostly ignored by anyone who went more than once. Hokoten was mostly about alternative rock (a lot of which was stimulated by Ika-ten, the TV show), but included folk, punk, dance, everything. They bands all made tapes and sold them on the streets, and so did some wanna-be fashion designers. But the emphasis was music, and it was the sound that gave the police their excuse to shut it down in 1995.

Maybe “Style Deficit Disorder” by Tiffany Godoy. That’s all that’s in print at the moment. I am currently working on something but it’s going to be a while.

This is helping cross the Is and dot the Ts of a lot of stuff I’ve been very basically aware for years. Thanks a lot, guys.

Actually, if I wanted to read about all of this and more as it’s all happening in greater detail, what should I check out?

I love how nerdy this is even as I 100% don’t care at all about the topic.
