    • 2005 June 7, Zaragon [username], “Re: 60s revival in the late 80s”, in alt.culture.us.1980s[1] (Usenet):
      Only the Dead's resurgence, and the Airplane's reformation, could be viewed as part of the Woodstockian nostalgia (a fascination that had as much to do with politics and cultural events from twenty years previous as it did with music and fashion) that gripped the media in the late 80's.
