ok so this is whats coming back, really you kinda need to reinvent the most horrible aspects of the past because your trauma-repression impulse is what makes everything you tried to forget seem really fresh in a couple years

Were the late 90s the only time it was acceptable* for white guys to be a bit on the porky side? All that frat-boy nu-metal stuff had its fair share of bloaters.
*i realise i am using a very liberal definition of the word "acceptable" here.

Other things that could be revived ironically or not:
Early '90s Queen Latifah mutlicolour leggings and fruit hats and zebra stripes in your music video and all that kind of thing?
British magazine telly - Big Breakfast/TFI Friday/Don't Forget Your Toothbrush/The Word/They Think It's All Over/Eurotrash/ITV Chart Show/Motormouth/What's Up Doc etc?
And Big Beat? No not the Chems, I'm talkin 'bout Midfield General and BRA!
Nike Air? Reebok Pumps? Puma Disc System?
WWF, Hulk Hogan, Legion Of Doom, Suburban Commando, Cool Runnings, Desert Strike bubblegum cards, Micro Machines?
Sheffield House/Bleep-Techno?
Mid-90s Britrock - Skunk Anansie, 3 Colours Red, Placebo, Groop Dogdrill, Therapy? ?
Trashy shit from Europe - Rednex, Whigfield, Mark Oh!, Scatman John etc.
BTW these were all on the shelves at Sainsbury's Hitchin (the only place you can buy CDs any more in the whole town) when I went shopping last night. The revival is inevitable:

googling random bearded theory acts.
UK psytrance at it's best - overflowing with energy, adrenaline and positivity, including stomping didgeridoo and searing guitar riffs throughout.

holy lol at the bearded festival
― ALLAH! *rolls on floor* (HI DERE), Wednesday, 24 March 2010 13:13 (sixteen years ago)
psytrance is the most '90s style of music that didn't exist in the 90s.

Most of the first mucky raves/festivals I attended were psytrance affairs. In the 90s

Scatman John was not trashy shit from Europe, he was awesome shit from America.

The time to revive Scatman John was many years ago ;_;

I hadn't banked on Alistair Darling's 10% cider tax. The crusties will be protesting in numbers we haven't seen since Swampy.

i'm sad to admit that mid-fold was always a guilty pleasure of mine. total cartoon anarchy and it summed up MFAJG perfectly. Then again I was 14 when it came out so I'm blinkered.

At the time, it reminded me more of Grateful Dead shows than ravers, but I guess it was less confusing than when I saw a picture of Keith for the first time.
