I was a member of the heavy overcoat brigade, that Anton Corbijn photo of JD in a tube station inspired a generation including Echo, Teardrop and flashers from Liverpool.

Well, as you've mentioned the BBC performance I'd better come clean... The slip on deck shoes weren't too bad (you know, the blue and white ones)
Ah, I had a pair of them too. Crowd went one way during Ceremony at the T&C. Right deck shoe stayed where it was. Thankfully the crowd went 10 yards back the other way, and I was able to rescue me shoe!
The shorts though - check out any footie pictures from that period. They were the way to wear your shorts at the time - so tight you could tell what religion you were. Thank fcuk fashions change.
I swear to god my barber was looking at a picture of Barney when he cut my hair yesterday.
The girl likes it, but...it feels a bit odd, as I've not had my sides clipped this close in ages.
Sported the Barney cut for nigh on a decade.
Started wearing shirts similar to the one
Barney wore in the Taras video.
Absolutely loved the cream hooded jacket,
was well happy when i managed to get one.
Had a yellow crewneck jumper and a green one.
Also bought a Gio/Goi jacket, which ended up in
Shug's possession somehow. 
Dunno how I managed to get that Green Gio Goi Jacket from you, but I certainly got wear out of it, I always had it on, fuck knows where it is now though, I think our John has nicked it!
I always tried to get a Barney Cut - but the closest style I could get to was the GAWI video cut
Always liked Barney's clobber circa 1991 with Electronic, and got stuff very similar.
I'd like to know if any daft bugger bought a camouflage fleece jacket that Barney wore on Jools;)
