Such is the ages old riddle of cool, isn't it? (actually decades old if cool is only a 20th century invention as claimed). The tempo and weight of a Burberry vs. the fleeting flicker of this Boombox is like the Ladyhawke fable rewritten for a May-December Vampire and Tinkerbell romance. Yet, it's as if it was meant to be. A gig like Boombox has legs for only so long anyway, and selling out isn't what it used to be, unless they surprise us and thrive. You sometimes still hear people describe that scenario as 'pulling a Burberry'. Well said. Such is the ages old riddle of cool, isn’t it?
