I'm into 80's synths. I collect them. I also have an extensive collection of nametags and hairnets. Which is odd, if you think about it, since I don't have any hair. I have to say, I've lived an insanely long time, and, in my book, the 1980s were by far the coolest era. I mean, pastel polo shirts with the collars turned up? Swatches? James Spader? It doesn't get much more radical than that. Trust me. I'm 65 million years old.
