debwa loves . . .

rockabilly! obvi.

I was talking to one of my girls the other day about how much we love rockabilly style only we wish we were rich enough/weren't lazy and then we would dress rockabilly all the time.

I couldn't find a pic of what I would dress like, but it would be a mixture of these:






anyways, right now I am watching "The Rockabilly Legends: They Called It Rockabilly Long Before It Was Called Rock 'n' Roll" on tv which is crazy, b/c I don't think I've ever seen anything rockabilly on tv before!

they focus on the beginning of rockabilly, specifically on artists elvis presley, carl perkins, buddy knox, johnny cash, roy orbison, and buddy holly. right now they're talking about/showing music/showing old interview footage of how carl perkins created the song "blue suede shoes."


into ittttttttt.

I'm baaaaack....

my trip to tokyo/kyoto was both delicious and funny. Here is a video i took of (probably) my favorite part:
(you can hear mr. fantasy go 'woah!' and me go "ohhh!' in the background at two different parts)



this is in yoyogi park in tokyo. There were three groups of different rockabillies, two biker groups and one teeny-bopper/ sock-hop type group. All of them brought their own music and all of them were dancing, but they spent about a hour warming up/ drinking beer at 11 am/ doing their hair/ chain smoking. Actually, some of them are smoking WHILE dancing, and they never stopped. We stood there for about half an hour...or more.
