Hello,

With the advent of MTV, the punk uniform became an identity. Lots of US kids wanted an identity, so this became a cool one for some.
How every punk scene begins: This is about being an individual and expressing yourself.
How every punk scene dies: NOT THAT WAY!

MTV was way later. Kids here were wearing a punk uniform much earlier bondage trousers and leather jackets were here late '77. The Clash bought into that image for a while.

In September 1976 John Rotten wore the famous bondage suit at the Chalet du Lac, Paris, France. Bondage trousers went on sale in Malcolm's shop not long after. Most punks couldn't afford his prices and soon they were copied by Boy also in the Kings Road, London. Then months later they were available at various market stalls.

There's a case to be made, perhaps, that everything awful about the 90s can be captured by Jay Leno.

Not all of Bill Hicks holds up, but his brutal analysis of Leno circa 1992/3 is all time.
