More college days reminiscence: Thursday night was indie night in whichever local nightclub in Perth was hosting it at that time. Gary, the DJ, played all kinds of fabulous stuff, and we'd head down pretty much every week and dance for upwards of 3 or 4 hours.
The dancefloor had tables along one side that acted as podiums, which for us as deeply self conscious 19 year olds meant us each having a theme song or two that we would get up onto the podiums for.
Mine were pretty much all Smiths or Morrissey tunes, given that I had a well-kept Morrisey quiff at the time, and a well-developed obsession with all things Smiths. So I'd get up there, wearing all kinds of layered nonsense and a jacket with oversized shoulder pads and do my Morrissey thing. It was all kinds of fun. Deeply student-y nonsense, but who gives a shit, we were students! :)
So, here's This Charming Man - my favourite song in the world for swinging imaginary gladioli along with :)
