Making friends in an underground culture

Am neary in my third year of uni and honestly, finding peope my age who are into the same things is quite rare unless you know where to look

look then

Am just worried i wont be able to fit in

Aren't we all? I'm in a similar position just with slightly diff music tastes.

No-one really ever fits in, they just keep trying their best to.

there must be a few festivals around the country which are dedicated to this sorta stuff? surely?

Yea there are looooads!!! I really wanna get to the weekenders they have but dont wanna spend the whole weekend there alone. I do know people who go to them but not well enough to say 'Hi, can i stay with you there for the weekend?'

Gonna start of with the gigs and see how it goes from there.

Uuum yea, thats what this thread is about!!!

Am just worried i wont be able to fit in

Like you were going to anyway

OP you got 'twist again' hawaii five O version?......if not be a darling and dload it.

Do what I do - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zS1cLOIxsQ8

do you mean 'they'......I already have

So my interests are pretty non mainstream - im into rockabilly, rock n roll, the 50s, doo wop, jiving, classic cars, etc.

Thing is none of my friends are into the same thing and i want to get out more to gigs and clubs to meet more people my age who are.

There are a couple of local gigs on tomoro (i havent decided which to go to yet) but im worried that i wont meet anyone there or wont be able to integrate myself into the crowd

What to do?

I lol'd so hard!

Why?

When you said underground music I didn't expect it would be that sort of music.

Oh well it is, its hardly mainstream

It WAS mainstream. Its just old mainstream now. When you said underground I thought you meant like EBM, Goth, Cyberpunk, Drum and Bass etc
