I must say, I've fallen in love with the musical genre. It's the art-form of the common man. If you want to communicate something with the proletariat, cover it in sequins and make it sing. It's noisy, vulgar and utterly meaningless—I love it!

Darren Nichols

Darren

Darren

Richard Smith-Jones

Darren Nichols

Darren Nichols

Geoffrey

Eh, it's the hair-do.
