Town Socks
Description: “When I get bigger, bigger enough to go somewhere by myself, I want to go to a land that’s far away. I want to go to a far away island. I want to go to an island that has no people. I want to go to an island that was no pain or sadness. There are no adults, children, classmates, teachers or my mom on that island. On that island, I can climb a tree when I want to climb, swim in the sea when I want to swim, and sleep when I want to sleep. On the island, I think about the town that I left behind. Kids go to school, as if nothing has changed. Adults go to the office, as if nothing has changed. When I think about the town without me, I fell a sense of relief. I want to go far, far away.” - by Kayo Hinazuki
Description: The Specials, also known as The Special AKA, are an English 2 Tone and ska revival band formed in 1977 in Coventry. After some early changes, the first stable lineup of the group consisted of Terry Hall and Neville Staple on vocals, Lynval Golding and Roddy Radiation on guitars, Horace Panter on bass, Jerry Dammers on keyboards, John Bradbury on drums, and Dick Cuthell and Rico Rodriguez on horns. Their music combines a "danceable ska and rocksteady beat with punk's energy and attitude".[2] Lyrically, they present a "more focused and informed political and social stance".
