Would anyone like to participate in a short (one-hour) interview about your experiences since you became interested in the mod or skinhead ways of life? Even if you do not make the 60�s or mod lifestyle or culture a part of your identity completely, or possibly only aesthetically, I would still like to interview you. I need to interview approximately 15 more people in the next two months so that I can complete my senior sociology thesis project and graduate from the University of California, Berkeley. I am located in the San Francisco Bay Area, and would love to interview more people from here, but because of the internet I am able to interview people all over the world. My AOL Instant Messenger id is Audmod if you would like to contact me that way and my ICQ number is 4481298, otherwise just e-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I�ve done a few interviews already this way as well as meeting with people in person, and they both take around an hour. I am willing to try to meet with anyone physically or on the internet, anywhere to try to do an interview. I must admit though that I am looking to interview girls much more than boys for two reasons: most academic subcultural work has completely neglected the role of girls, and it is less of a difficulty for me to find boys to interview. This is not to say that I am unwilling to interview male mods, skinheads, scooter boys, etc., but I would like to show that girls contribute more to the scene than books and periodicals such as Mods! and Scootering show. You will be given complete anonymity, and I will give you the choice of choosing the name which will appear in the paper. I really have little to no incentives to offer you to help me, but if the project works out well there is a chance that it could be published as a book if I decide to continue it in grad school. Otherwise it will be kept in the library at U.C. Berkeley, and you can go there and see your name or chosen name in print. Thanks in advance!
