Harajuku Greasers



How on Earth did I miss this clip?!
It features a crew of dyed in the leather greasers from Harajuku during their afternoon dance sessions

Great clip! I've been to japan a few times and see a few greasers around, they take it real serious.

The West may 'invent' cultural subsets, but trust the Japanese to make it way cooler.

I saw these guys when I was there in 2007. They were so frickin' cool. Walking around rocking leather jackets, drinking tall cans of Asahi and playing 50's and 60's American rock'n'roll through the most gehtto set up (I think it was som dodgy cd player running into a shitty bass amp combo)...

And then they danced.

Brilliant. I suspect only Japanese greasers can get away with leap-frog in the park.

I keep trying to imagine my greaser mates in this scene and I just can't see it happening!
