Dos and Dont’s
These European art-crowd guys have to be carefully timed. You don’t want to be there at dawn when they have golf-ball eyes and are telling you for the tenth time what they think of Cerith Wyn Evans. But if you can catch them at beer number three and bump number one there’s definitely going to be some high jinks worth hanging around for.

Music festivals used to be the preserve of rockers and naked freaks on acid painted blue. These days it’s all Dave, Marcus, and Steve from marketing who think it's hilarious to piss in public while texting their friends: “Kings Of Leon on next. Thy fkcing rck!”

And the Devil is a rockabilly greaser?

Rockabillies don’t play Flying Vs.

sure they do ya big dummy!

Name one, ONE Rockabilly artist who has ever used a Flying V. And no, Psychobilly doesn’t count.
And just to nip this in the bud before it happens, if anybody mentions Jay Reatard’s name in relation to Rockabilly I will officially shit.

Bo Diddley? Rocky Burnette? Randy Rhoads?

No way in hell Randy Rhoads counts as Rockabilly. I’ve only ever seen pictures of Bo Diddley playing that big square guitar (it’s also pretty dubious to refer to him as rockabilly), and Rocky Burnette may technically count but only because once you make it to second-wave revivabilly all bets are off. Still, photo evidence would be nice here.

Well whatever genre that Devil falls into, he’s about to get it in a big way from those oily boys in Stryper!

Rockabilly? Really? Did you get tired of being a skin?
Ugh. Go fight something.

“Bo Diddley playing that big square guitar (it’s also pretty dubious to refer to him as rockabilly” - erm more than slightly dubious i would say.
