Subject: Bandanas & parachute pants

Am I the only female who wore these things? I was a punk rocker in the eighties and I thought I was pretty hip. Wasn't I? Just wondering!

I wore them too. I hated when I outgrew the parachute pants. The "kids" in my neighborhood (guys and gals) used to where the bandana on the legs rather than the hair.

Not necessarily. We were just a bunch of neighborhood kids who thought it looked "cool". Although, it was made popular as a "gang sign" by a song by Michael Jackson in one of his songs (who's title escapes me right now).
