:New Wave was when Siouxsie refused to play
the West Coast, calling the entire scene out here
bogus. New Wave started out in black and white,
it then turned into colors. New Wave *turned
into* Adam and the Ants, it turned into The Cars,
it turned into the Cure, it turned into Pat
Benetar,
All those acts you mentioned are from England or the East Coast. Why wouldn't Siouxsie play
the West Coast? Sounds pretty elitist to me. And since she has since played on the West
Coast, I guess that makes her a sellout to her own ideals.
