Hi all
I start this with the blank but necessary flat : I'm not gay, but.

This done : lets go the point : MUsic !!!!
At the age of seeing space on air, I was fan of Bowie-Stardust, Roxy and glamrock. Iggy Pop was my ultimate idol. I still enjoy going at his concert. Later on I became fan of Joy Division and Bauhaus. At that time, I opposed them to glam rock. I nowadays realise how much they were of the same line. As today I like Placebo.
Would the liking of those music have something to do with the one of Space ???

That's the question, gay and ungay folks, along with : what are yours musical favorite ?

why did I choose this forum ????

Because the Ziggy character was very much about bisexuallity. Because the film Velvet Goldmine, which I think is a good film, is very much about it. Because all the people I'm refering to, Jones, Osterberg, Curtis, Murphy, Bollan, Vega, Molko etc.... and, to me, the Space show, go around a feeling of sensitivity, and even dismay, that are not supposed to belong to the real straight guys who always hide their problems.
Now I realise there is here some cultural gap. I'm assuming, maybe wrongly, that my description of the straight guy apply to the anglo-saxon world. World I'm somehow addressing to when I start writing on such a forum. I mean Space. As a belgian, I'm myself already more of a sensitive declared guy. Maybe halfway between England and Italy.

Because gay people are more on fashion and music ????
Maybe because I want to say hello ! to them too, and though I found a cool matter of talking ?

Anyway, dear Dada, thank you for answering, and more details whenever you feel like it. smile.gif

Like I said in many other cases, you are totally right again.
I hope I didn't offend you or any other person on this forum or in the Net in any way.
Now I know I was wrong when I posted that question.sad.gif
I've changed my mind, folks....rolleyes.gif

The character design of the Kaldorians in "Earthbound" was clearly inspired by the glam rock movement of the early '70's, as were quite a few other aliens encountered between Year One and Year Two.
