# yays
I know I'm alone in thinking this but the 2012 logo is pretty clever.
Fashion trends tend to go in 20 year cycles and so by 2012 they will be heavily influenced from the early 90's so it's more than possible that by then it will be fashionally up to date.

# The use of a font far too close to Comic Sans for my liking
makes it unforgivable.

# I was in a clothes shop yesterday and noticed that fashions are obviously progresing to the late 80's/early 90's as there were some colourful waistcoats in there.
I'm worried.

# Nowt wrong with waistcoats!
Well, monochrome ones anyway....

# You'll notice this is for the reason of people of approximately
15-23 wanting to be part of the scene just before they were born/during early childhood, and thus recreate it.

I'm such an early 90s fan myself, and this is all I can put it down to.

# Oh yes
It's a lot down to what their parents were into then they were young as well.

# Were the 1980s heavily influenced by the 1960s, then?

# Flares came back into fashion and the whole psycedelia thing was very big
Think of the B52's

# They formed in the late 70s.
Vaguely ironic retro-psychedelia was still fashionable in the 90s.
That's not the same thing as twenty year cycles.
In the 50s there were teds, who dressed in an Edwardian style, which is at least a 40 year gap.

# OK well think of the music at that time
Very influenced by the 70's. Today it is the 80's with undertones of the 60's.

# I don't remember it being
fashionable in the early 90s to have a logo that looked like a paraplegic falling from a multi-storey car park. I guess I was only young then though....

# The inks to make neon dyes at an affordable rate were a new technology then
and heavily over used.

Fresh.
