I was using the '79 mod revival as an example. And calling mod elite gives
everyone a bad name. Maybe nobody listens to '79 stuff and I think it's
boring too, but somebody out there is buying it.
Mod is no different from any other sub-culture in that we all have something
to believe in. When it goes too far, elitism, it becomes obsession,
something that becomes a dominant and persistent influence that a person can
not escape or realise the difference between the right and wrong.
